Join us on an exciting journey to the southern part of Crete, passing through traditional villages to experience the island's authentic charm and tranquil way of life. Our first stop is Zaros Lake, where you can take a stroll or enjoy a cup of coffee. Then, we continue through Crete's grand valleys, surrounded by ancient ruins from the Minoan and Roman eras. The off-road adventure begins as we descend into Tripiti Gorge, passing towering cliffs and wild olive groves. Local wildlife, including wild goats, along with abundant flora and countless aromatic herbs, can be spotted along the way. Upon reaching Tripiti Beach, you'll have time to relax and swim in the crystal-clear waters. To complete the experience, we'll enjoy a traditional Cretan barbecue lunch at a taverna hidden deep in the forest, accompanied by local wine and fresh water.
