Cosa farai
  • Fai onore alla gastronomia di Creta trascorrendo una giornata con una famiglia locale. Partecipa alla routine quotidiana della fattoria e scopri la vita tradizionale dell'isola.
  • I proprietari della fattoria accolgono personalmente gli ospiti nella loro casa e trascorrono la giornata con loro, condividendo informazioni sui prodotti locali, sulle sfide dell'agricoltura, sui benefici per l'ecosistema e sulle speranze e preoccupazioni della famiglia.
  • Partecipa alla vita quotidiana della fattoria: cuoci il pane, raccogli le uova, prenditi cura degli animali, prepara un pasto cretese e partecipa a un'esclusiva caccia alle lumache, riservata solo ai viaggiatori di National Geographic.
  • Partecipa a una lezione di cucina preparando una ricetta tradizionale cretese, mentre ti accosti alla cultura locale attraverso il folklore, ascoltando storie e canzoni locali.
Cosa aspettarsi

Le piccole aziende agricole a conduzione familiare sono elemento fondamentale della dieta mediterranea per cui Creta è così famosa. Una famiglia locale ti accoglierà nel suo Mitato, una piccola fattoria, con il calore genuino dell'ospitalità cretese. Ascolta un contadino raccontare l'intrigante storia del re Minoas, che scrutava dal suo osservatorio e avvisava la popolazione dell'arrivo dei pirati. Terminati i saluti, è il momento di una lezione pratica di panificazione, per imparare le tecniche del tipico pane cretese fatto con farina di grano e orzo.

Poi, osserva la loro abilità nel preparare formaggi con il latte di capra della loro fattoria. Sarà il momento di rimboccarsi le maniche e darsi da fare, aiutando nelle attività quotidiane della fattoria, come dare da mangiare alle capre, ai maiali, ai polli e ai conigli e curare i giardini. L'avventura continua con una caccia alle lumache sul pendio della montagna, un'esclusiva riservata ai viaggiatori di National Geographic, cercando sotto le rocce e tra arbusti e fiori. Quanto raccolto nel corso della giornata, comprese le lumache, le uova, frutta e verdura, diventano gli ingredienti per il pranzo.

Insieme alla famiglia ospitante, preparerai un pranzo di prelibate specialità locali, tutte realizzate anche con i prodotti del tuo lavoro. Concluderai la giornata con un assaggio dello “spirito di Creta”, il raki e perché non cantare con le loro tradizionali "Mantinades", i tradizionali distici cretesi che esprimono sentimenti sulla vita quotidiana dei cretesi.

    Kamihis Farm House was the most authentic and memorable experience we’ve had in Greece! From the moment we arrived, the Kamihis family made us feel like part of their own. We learned about traditional life, joined hands-on activities, and enjoyed the most delicious farm-to-table meal—all made with fresh ingredients from their land. Their hospitality, passion, and excellent English made everything easy and unforgettable. If you want a true taste of Greek culture beyond tourist spots, it's a must

    Prachtige uitstap. Best wel prijzig. Last van vliegen. Heel veel vliegen. Kan je op zich misschien niet zoveel aan doen, maar het eten afdekken terwijl het op tafel staat vond ik wel nodig hierdoor en dit was niet zo. Tegen dat je iets nam voor op je bord hadden er al tientallen vliegen een dansje op gemaakt erin dat is smerig vinden wij.

Das Zubereiten vom Teig, der selbstgemachte Ziegenkäse, das gemeinsame Mittagessen alles ganz familiär, der gemeinsame Sirtaki war lustig. Die ganzen Tiere zum Anfassen. Der kleine Einkauf von dem Olivenöl, Honig, Seife Raki und Kurissirup adäquater Preis. Die Ausflugsbeschreibung war genial. Unter anderem Schneckensammlung die gegessen werden ?? ,

Nat Geo Day Tour: The Millenary History of Olive Oil

Approximate itinerary and duration of activitiesIntroduction - 15 minutesWalking tour through the olive trees - 30 minutesPause for questions and raki drink - 15 minutesOlive oil factory tour - 40 minutesOlive oil tasting and questions - 55 minutesCooking demonstration and tastings - 30 minutesPlease note the order of activities may vary at your guide's discretion With millennia of experience behind them, it's no wonder the people of Crete produce some of the finest olive oil in the world. You will appreciate the timeless bond between Cretans and their revered olive trees as you trace the long heritage of olive cultivation on the island. Just outside Kritsa village in the hills of eastern Crete, you'll follow Nikos Plevritakis on a brief walk to his olive groves where some trees are 600-800 years old, and learn about olive cultivation from a true specialist. In the shade of the olive trees, you can try local raki known as ‘tsikoudia' with olives to nibble on while discussing the cultural and societal significance of olive cultivation in Crete. Then it's time to visit a local cooperative factory, to see up close how olives are processed into world-class olive oil. Back on the Olive Path, seize the chance to taste fresh figs, almonds, and grapes, see what the locals are growing, and find out all about the Cretan lifestyle and diet. Then, at an olive farm, you can sample olives, fresh tomatoes, and raki before your olive oil tasting session begins – a great opportunity to learn how to taste oils like a professional and compare the flavor profiles of different varieties. Finish off the day with a cooking lesson on various ways to use olive oil in Cretan cuisine. Authentic dishes, such as tzatziki and Greek salad will feature, and you'll find out why the traditional Cretan diet is so beneficial to health and longevity.

Nat Geo Day Tour: Discover Cretan Farm Life

Nat Geo Day Tour: Discover Cretan Farm Life

Small-scale, family-run farms are integral to the Mediterranean diet that Crete is so famous for. A local family will welcome you to their Mitato, a small farmhouse, where you'll be greeted with the genuine warmth of Cretan hospitality. Listen to the local farmer tell the intriguing tale of King Minoas who watched from his observatory, and alerted locals to incoming pirates. Greetings over, it's time for a hands-on bread-making lesson, learning the techniques for typical Cretan bread, made with wheat and barley flour. Then, witness their cheese-making skills using goat's milk from the farm. Next, it's time to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in, helping out with daily farm tasks like feeding the goats, pigs, chickens, and rabbits, and tending to the gardens. The adventure continues with a snail hunt over the mountainside, exclusive to National Geographic travellers, peeking under rocks, and among shrubs and flowers. As the day unfolds, your collected treasures, including snails, eggs, fruit, and vegetables, become the ingredients for lunch. Alongside the family, you'll prepare a feast of local delicacies, all made from the products of your day's work. Finish off the experience with a taste of Crete's spirit, Raki, and why not sing along to their traditional Cretan ‘Mantinades,' - traditional Cretan couplets that express sentiments about Cretan daily life.

Crete day tour with monastery, winery visit and cooking class

A chance to delve into Crete's culture and eat like an islander. On this full day tour inland from Chania, you'll visit a winery in Alikambos, explore a historic monastery, and take part in a hands-on cheese-making class. Joanna, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘This tour is the ideal opportunity to taste Cretan olive oil and wine, and to try local food that you'll get to prepare during a cooking lesson'.After making your way through the scenic foothills of the White Mountains, you'll reach your first port of call – award-winning Dourakis Winery, a family-run business with decades of experience in winemaking and olive oil production. Enjoy sampling its organic Cabernet Sauvignon wines and olive oil before setting off into the countryside.Next, you'll head to the Monastery of St George. Set among sun-soaked olive groves in the village of Karydi, this early 17th-century retreat was restored after many decades of abandonment, though parts of it still retain a ruined air. You'll be able to explore the grounds and discover the remains of the old olive oil press. What's more, your visit directly contributes to the monastery's upkeep. Your final stop is Kefalas village where you'll partake in a cooking lesson to learn how to prepare a traditional dish. Then it'll be time to roll up your sleeves and have a go yourself. Prepare a meal using a recipe you can recreate when you get back home, and if you're feeling creative, you can even try your hand at making Cretan cheese.
