We booked this trip for a party of 6. It was a 3/4 of a day awesome experience. Learned about olive oil production, cheese making, honey harvesting and wine tasting. To top it off we had a great lunch in the vineyard with fresh food prepared right there. We all had a great time and our host was super knowledgeable about many areas. Got a little taste of the rural village life in Chania. Would highly recommend for someone looking for something a little different than most of the touristy options in town. We all enjoyed our time and would definitely sign up again if given the chance

A small group of eight. We had an amazing day with Vasili. Very informative, fun, and he was a great host.
Our trip included visiting an olive oil factory, milking sheep at Vasilis’s nephews farm, watching cheese being made, bee keeping, preparing a picnic (group activity), and grape picking.
The settings for each activity were just beautiful.

We had a fantastic day with Vasili! He was on time picking us up at the Cruise port. Yes, this tour works great when you are in port! He gave us tons of information regarding the area, the olive trees/oil, cheese and wine. The olive oil press was very interesting and the oil was fantastic. We rarely buy food products to fly home with but this bottle was worth it. The milking of the sheep at his nephews farm was so much fun. The cheese was amazing. Lastly we went to his vineyard and tasted the wines that he has made. They were really good. We had a delicious picnic in his vineyard. This included his mothers spinach pies and her lemon flavored olives. I would love to know how to make those! We had a lovely conversation with his mom before we left.
