Wonderful experience of Cretan farm and cooking
This is much more than just a cooking class; it is an opportunity to experience the authentic Cretan way of life. We spent a beautiful afternoon with this hospitable family that opened their home to us and allowed us to share in their culture. Truly a memorable experience! Would 100% recommend.

Wine & Olive Oil Tour with Lunch at Milia Mountain Retreat
Denise_M, Sep 2026
Great guide, great food and drink, great scenery!
This was an amazing day! We traveled with only 4 people so it was a very personal experience. Our guide was so informative and an interesting person himself (prior Olympic skier). The olive oil and wine tasting were lovely. We felt very safe on the windy and off road areas. The Milia Retreat and meal were sumptuous and beautiful locale. Just a great day from pick up to drop off.

Best Experience You Might Ever Have!

Authentic Cretan Cooking Class & Farm Experience in Chania, Crete
jcallahan8314, Sep 2026
Best Experience You Might Ever Have!
The best advice I can give you is to STOP READING and JUST BOOK the Veggera Experience! Trying to explain how wonderful the Kourakis Family is would be impossible. It is hosted on their family farm, and it was one of the most genuine and authentic experiences we have ever had.After spending an afternoon preparing food, eating, seeing all the farm animals, and enjoying their homemade wine we truly felt like family! It started raining on us so they even opened up the inside of their home so we could enjoy the rest of our meal. Almost everything comes from their farm!Seeing the animals, playing with kittens, and milking the goats were the highlight for my girls. Enjoying their homemade drinks, music, and dancing were my favorite and my wife left happy knowing her entire family felt so at home here.We feel like we need to return to Crete to spend more time with the Kourakis Family. They truly are wonderful and this experience is one of a kind! Book it and you won't be disappointed!

Great day hiking!!!
What a great day! Well organized. Great hike - worth the effort. Completely hassle free. My husband and I both wore hikers and we are active and in good health and we said we were grateful to have them! We brought our bathing suits and fully appreciated a beautiful swim and the cooling waters after a long, hot day and challenging hike. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.

Beautiful, Relaxing & Accessible - Absolutely Worth It
Absolutely lovely tour guide. This was the perfect blend of scenery, history about Greece and Crete, and a relaxing few hours on the best beach we went to!!! If you are looking for a mild activity (we traveled with a grandma with some minor mobility issues) this is the tour for you!!! Couple minutes of rocky walking to the most picturesque view. The rest was total bliss and relaxation!! Can’t forget to mention the AMAZING and delicious lunch we had as well 10/10- highly recommend

Elafonisi & Milia Mountain – Jeep Tour with Loungers and Lunch
Maria_C, Sep 2026
Enjoyable day to the beach and glad we had a driver for the hilly mountain driving.
We spent 3 hours at Elafonissi beach and left when crowds were really getting bad. The water is beautiful but the pink sand was gone this late in summer. The water is very shallow for a long way so to do any significant swimming you must go out fairly far. We then went to a unique place for an amazing and very filling lunch. I will not spoil the surprise. Yiannis our guide was a delight. He had a lot of interesting information for us. 🐝🍯

Great day of sightseeing and sampling wine & food
Great day seeing many varied sights. Our Guide Demetrius was really wonderful. Very knowledgable about all the places he took us and pointed out many things along the way. He saw to our every need along the trip. The people at the winery and the wine tasting were very nice, and lunch at the monastery was absolutely delicious. It was one of the highlights of our trip and I would highly recommend it. Pictures are of the Milla Mountain Resort.

Quad/Buggy Safari from Platanias of Chania
Christine_G, Sep 2026
Such a fun way to experience Crete!
We did the quad tour during our honeymoon in Crete and had an absolute blast! It was such a fun change of pace and gave us a completely different way to experience the island.The tour was incredibly well organized, and we felt comfortable and taken care of throughout the entire experience. The scenery was beautiful, the riding was so much fun, and we loved getting away from the typical tourist experience and seeing another side of Crete.We packed a LOT into our honeymoon throughout Greece, and this was definitely one of those experiences that stood out. If you’re looking for something adventurous, memorable, and a little different while visiting Crete, absolutely add a quad tour to your trip.Thank you for such a fun day and another amazing memory from our honeymoon! ❤️🇬🇷
