Milia Mountain Retreat, Wine and Olive Oil tasting

Tour Schedule

Ano Vouves: Time for a cup of coffee or fresh orange juice! The first Jeep Safari stop, to the unique 3000 years old olive tree which is still productive! Admire, touch it and take plenty of photos.

Anoskeli: Learn all about the production of olive oil, as we visit Anoskeli’s olive mill and winery. Taste the organic extra virgin olive oil spread on warm bread with oregano. Continue with a winery experience by trying 5 different labels of local wine, accompanied by Cretan snacks.

Milia: After having an adventurous off-road experience we arrive at Milia Mountain Retreat. Time stops here: there is no electricity, and cozy stone houses bring us close to the philosophy of “back to the basics”. The place is an authentic 17th-century mountain settlement that has been transformed into an eco-friendly tourist complex, one of the top 50 worldwide choices of National Geographic magazine, concerning eco-tourism and agrotourism. We will spend our lunchtime here and you will enjoy Cretan cuisine and local wine.

Topolia Gorge: The wild scenery of Topolia gorge is worth seeing. Admire and take plenty of photos of wild landscape nature.
