WINE TOUR - CRETAN ANIMAL PARK

tour description

Jeep Safari Wine & Wildlife Adventure – Taste and Explore Crete

Join us for a relaxed yet scenic Jeep Safari that perfectly blends nature, wine, and panoramic views. Discover Crete’s hidden gems on this full-day adventure designed for those who appreciate authentic experiences, local flavors, and beautiful landscapes.

Our day begins with a visit to the mystical Skotino Cave, also known as the Cave of the Goddess Artemis, one of Crete’s lesser-known spiritual sites.

From there, we head off-road into the Cretan countryside for some light adventure, making our way to a peaceful animal park, where you'll enjoy free time to explore, interact with animals, or simply relax.

Next, we visit a local winery, where tradition meets taste. Enjoy a guided tour through the vineyard and wine production area, followed by a tasting of 5 carefully selected wines, perfectly paired with local cheeses and snacks.

We continue to the summit of Mount Juktas (over 1,000 meters above sea level), where you’ll be treated to a panoramic view stretching from Heraklion to Hersonissos — a perfect photo opportunity.

Our final stop is the picturesque village of Archanes, known for its charm and local hospitality. Here, you’ll enjoy a delicious lunch at a traditional taverna, with a choice of chicken, pork, or vegetarian dishes, served with wine and water. After lunch, take time to explore the village at your own pace.
