Crete
Here are the food and olive oil tours I’d send friends on: farm lunches, market walks and tastings inside working mills. Crete grows some of the oldest olive trees on earth; the one at Vouves has been fruiting for over 2,000 years. Come between October and December and you can watch the new harvest being pressed.
Bask in the sun-kissed beauty of Heraklion on a journey filled with ancient tales and artisanal treasures, where every turn holds a new surprise...
