Tour enologico guidato privato di Heraklion SUV con pranzo

We spent our time with Areti, who was the most amazing person and guide! Both winery's were absolutely amazing, from wine to food we both didn't want the moment to end. If you come to Crete as a couple you need to book this tour with Areti or you are simply missing out.

My husband and I had a wonderful time on this private trip to two fantastic wineries, Peterianakis and Lyrakis. Our tour guide Areti was very knoweldgemable about the area and about wines. She made sure we had a beautiful lunch paired with fantastic wines from the Lyrakis winery. She picked us up from the cruise port and we were back in time for the drop off. No problem! Very special day! Thank you Areti!

The wineries were both lovely and we tasted 5 - 6 wines in each location. Lunch by the vineyard was breathtaking and delicious.

Areti provided transport to 2 exquisite wineries in the Piza region of Crete. We stayed in Elounda so the ride to and from was a bit far, but well worth every minute of the tour. I highly recommend booking this wine tour to learn the history and fun facts about Cretan Wine from Areti. On our tour, we stopped at Domaine Paterianakis first. A small winery with some award winning wines. The property is gorgeous and wine fantastic. We learned very quick that Areti gives the best recommendations on how to pair the tasting wines with cheese, fruits, and other snacks provided. Our second stop was at Lyrarakis. Right before visiting the winery, Areti showed us a historical wine press. This also provided a good time to learn of the different herbs and plants that are native to Crete. It’s amazing to pluck a stem for such a strong scent or taste. Lyrarakis is a great winery. They offer a large variety of wines and we received a full course meal with wine tastings to pair. Overall, a must-do experience! Hopefully we’ll be back on Crete and can find time to experience a wine tour with Areti again.

First class service, from the moment you are picked up Areti is respectfully enquiring what your tastes are and wine preferences. From there, she expertly pairs wine and food to your tastes. This is a great day, excellent wine & olive oil with authentic Cretan food served at every stop. Areti knows her stuff, we learnt all about the history of Crete and how they had brought back certain wines from near extinction. If you’re not a big breakfast eater then skip it altogether that day as the food offered on the tour is outstanding. Highly recommended, look no further.

We had such a wonderful time on our tour. The wine selections were fantastic, and the conversation was great. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and made sure we had a wonderful time. Would absolutely recommend!

My husband and had a wonderful day driving the countryside to two wonderful wineries. Areti was a knowledgeable and friendly guide. Having worked at a winery for 5 years, she did a great job of choosing and describing wines. The wine pairing lunch at the second winery was delicious and ample!

We spent an incredible day with Areti. We visited two excellent wineries and toured the wine region. The wine, the food and the tour were perfect in every way. We especially enjoyed spending time with Areti. She is knowledgeable and excited about wine as well as the Cretan wine culture and shares that excitement with you.

We had SUCH an amazing experience with Areti - this wine tour was definitely a highlight of our trip to Greece. We had a lovely afternoon sampling local organic wines from two different Cretan wineries; all of the wine was excellent and Areti really helped bring out the flavors and explained how best to enjoy them. We got to walk around the wineries, explore the vineyards and basements, and enjoyed the lovely views of the Cretan farmlands. Areti herself is such a pro. So welcoming, so knowledable, and absolutely charming. We were encouraged to try several things, and it felt like she really selected wines that both catered to our palettes and allowed for some further adventure. The food we were served was absolutely delicious, we even stopped by a local village to grab some cheese because we enjoyed it so much. Looking forward to touring with her again in our next visit to Crete!

Overall experience was amazing! Areti was a great guide, not only with the wines and their distinct history, but she was also knowledgeable in local history and culture. We could not ask for a better experience!
