To begin, you will be picked up from your specified location in Chania in the comfortable Jeep, which seats up the 6 passengers. Your professional and friendly driver guide will make sure you will have an excellent time exploring the wild landscapes of Crete as you cross a valley full of trees and vegetable gardens, climbing up the foothills of the White Mountains.

After a nice coffee or tea break at a café in Nteres, you will continue your tour following an off-road route to a traditional shepherd’s hut where you’ll have panoramic views of your picturesque surroundings! Away from touristic areas, you will get to enjoy stunning views of Northern Crete and you may even get to see eagles and wild goats if you’re lucky. This is the trip’s highest point at 1350 metres (4430 feet), and you will be in the heart of the White Mountains of Crete! At the hut, you will learn about the lifestyle of a shepherd and discover the traditional cheese-making process for the famous Cretan “Graviera” cheese.

On your way down, you will enjoy the views of Chania as you travel to the village of Therisso where you will stop at a traditional, family-run Cretan tavern. The owner will welcome you with open arms before you get to sit down, relax, and enjoy local dishes and wine as you experience the meaning of Cretan hospitality at its finest! After lunch, you will follow a road through the incredible gorges of Therisso which will lead you back to the city of Chania.
