Heraklion Half Day Tour for History Buffs and Foodies

The town of Heraklion is the place I was born and raised. For me, Heraklion is the most varied, colorful, interesting, and vibrant town of Crete. It presents our history and culture, tastes and sounds, tradition and modern life all in one place. Let me show you around my birth-town and allow yourselves to explore with me the historic gems and modern life wonders of Heraklion. I would be glad to guide you in the most renowned historic town monuments but also introduce to you our local food, as a part of our culture. During our town tour, you will taste famous local delicacies and pastries together with Greek coffee or herbal tea. You will also try local products from the market such as local cheese, honey, and extra virgin Olive Oil. Next, at a local wine cellar let yourselves be introduced to the Cretan Wines. You will taste different wines from the island of Crete, based on our endemic varieties and the Cretan terroir. Lastly, let me take you for an unforgetable meal to my favorite town Fish Restaurant!
