Land Rover Safari Minoan Route to the Lassithi Plateau with professional driver and lunch

Your adventure begins as you leave the coast behind and head into the authentic Cretan countryside. Your first stop is a traditional olive oil producer, where you’ll discover how one of Crete’s most treasured products is made and enjoy a tasting of premium local olive oil.

Continue to the viewpoint overlooking the Aposelemi Dam and the partially submerged village of Sfendili before travelling through charming villages, where you’ll sample traditional raki and homemade local delicacies.

Venture off the beaten path as you follow ancient Minoan trails through the Cretan mountains. Visit a local shepherd, feed the goats, and taste freshly made traditional cheese while learning about the island’s long-standing pastoral traditions. Along the way, stop at a panoramic viewpoint overlooking the Lassithi Plateau and the historic Minoan Route, offering spectacular views and excellent photo opportunities.

Relax and savour a traditional Cretan lunch accompanied by local wine before continuing to the picturesque village of Krasi. Stroll through its peaceful streets, admire the famous 2,000-year-old plane tree, and visit the natural spring that has made this village a beloved destination for generations.

Return to your hotel with unforgettable memories of Crete’s authentic culture, flavours, traditions, and stunning natural beauty.
