Private Iraklion Half Day Premium Food Tour

Cretan Cuisine, known worldwide today as the Mediterranean diet has been extensively studied and published in medical literature because of its unique youth-giving properties and healthy lifestyle practices. This "blue zone" area has inspired many people to regain their health and has become popularized in many cosmopolitan restaurants across Europe and the U. S as a proven way to wellness. Get the chance to enjoy dishes inspired by the island's traditional cuisine-the original Mediterranean diet. I am a true foodie and wine connoisseur, born and raised in this beautiful city, so be sure that I will take you on a tour of the best-hidden corners in Heraklion. We'll visit a total of nine unique places where you can taste original Cretan herbal tea with thyme-infused honey, delicious bougatsa, local cheese, a few meze with raki, surprise dishes paired with local wines and more. This tour has been carefully designed, because I believe it is a shame to visit Crete without discovering its gastronomical gems!
