Overview of your Heraklion tour:

Knossos Palace and the Minoans have fascinated me since I was a child. I remember reading fully intrigued about the mysterious residence of the mythical king Minos, the son of Zeus and Europa. Later through my Studies, the Minoan civilization of Crete became the area of my intense interest and specialization. With my Postgraduate Degree in Prehellenic Arts and Greek Mythology. Embark on a time-travel journey to a traditional Cretan village. Discover 18th-century architecture, visit a Folk Arts museum, and explore local artisans' workshops. Experience ancient crafts like basket weaving and sheep bell making, and learn about honey production at a honey-making workshop. Enjoy local products such as olive oil, cheese, and Cretan "Raki" liqueur. Our final stop is a honey farm, where you'll sample Thyme Honey and other delicacies while learning about the bee life cycle.
