Rethymno Traditional Arts & Workshops Tour
Overview
Join us on a 2-hour journey through Rethymno's Old Town, where Crete's heritage comes alive through local artisans.
Visit 4 family-run workshops, each showcasing the island's traditional crafts.
We begin at a Wood Workshop, where you'll see an artisan sculpt wood using his hands and basic tools. You'll take home a handmade wooden souvenir.
Next, we visit a Leather Workshop run by a third-generation craftsman. You'll see the craft and receive a personalized leather keepsake.
Then, step into the world of Papier-Mâché Art, where recycled materials become stunning works of art. Enjoy a hands-on experience creating your own piece to take home.
Finally, explore the Lyra Workshop and learn about Crete's iconic instrument from a craftsman featured in documentaries worldwide.
With a small group, enjoy personal interactions, local stories, and hands-on experiences.
Perfect for culture lovers and anyone who appreciates handmade craftsmanship.
