Summary
What’s special about Cretan cuisine?
Crete is renowned for its simple yet delicious food, which is part of every aspect of local life. Cretan cuisine is based on high quality ingredients sourced locally from nature or produced on small scale farms, and the locals’ zeal, passion and traditions around food.
What will I do on this tour?
On this tour, we invite you to join us in a celebration of mouth watering Cretan food and learn about the different ways of sourcing, preparing and – of course – enjoying food on Crete. We will visit a lively village nearby Heraklion. There, we will go on a stroll in the surrounding nature to forage for local and wild food ingredients. We will cook with a local chef, who will host us for dinner at a family house. In a convivial atmosphere helped by local wines and spirits, we will enjoy the incredible tastes, the serene environment, and the bright night skies. At the end of the day, we head back home with great food in our bellies and big smiles on our faces.
