We believe a journey is only as remarkable as the stories it unveils. Crafted by award-winning travel designers, this private day tour reveals Eastern Crete’s hidden treasures. Guided by expert storytellers, you’ll transcend ordinary travel to connect with Crete’s essence.

Descend into the sacred Psychro Cave, where myth and reality intertwine, and wander timeless villages like Mochos and Krasi, where privileged connections open doors to authentic encounters. Visit a Byzantine monastery adorned with frescoes and a miraculous icon, and explore a traditional ceramics workshop where artisans bring age-old techniques to life.

Indulge in Cretan gastronomy with wood-fired dishes paired with curated wines in a serene Lassithi Plateau setting. Discover the art of olive oil at the Vasilakis Estate and conclude in Agios Nikolaos, where lakeside views and coastal charm await. Every detail is curated for discovery and indulgence, offering a journey that transcends the ordinary.
