It was a fantastic experience. The olive oil tour was extremely informative and the olive oil is quite different from what we find in the states. It was fun to try the different kinds and we all left with several bottles. The winery was the highlight of the tour. À family run winery that only sells its bottles in Greece. We took the tour with the owner, Leo and got to meet his family. The winery was was VERY delicious. The Knossos palace is a must see for history buffs but the guide we hired outside of the gates was average at best. I recommend going to the Heraklion Archaeological museum first to learn about the palace and then going to Knossos. You will not need a guide and the site will be way more interesting.

Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a detailed review. We’re delighted that you enjoyed the olive oil experience and especially your visit to the family-run winery. Meeting the people behind the products is exactly what we want our tours to be about — not just tasting Crete, but getting to know the families, traditions and stories behind it.
We’re also glad you had the opportunity to visit Knossos. We’re sorry to hear that the guide you independently hired outside the entrance did not fully meet your expectations. Your suggestion of visiting the Heraklion Archaeological Museum is a very good one, as the museum and Knossos complement each other beautifully and give visitors a much deeper understanding of Minoan history.
Thank you again for choosing us during your time in Crete, and we hope the bottles of Cretan olive oil you took home bring back some good memories of your day with us!

Don't miss this one!
What a wonderful time we had. Our day started at knossos palace and it was easy to explore without a guide. We then went to a local olive oil family owned company and were able to see from start to finish the production of olive oil. We sampled the oil and it was well worth it. Afterwards we went to a home of a local beautiful family owned winery and were educated on wine and raki production. We sampled the different wines and treated like family. Finally we stopped at a local tavern with quite a delicious lunch drinks and dessert. Our driver Gianni was thorough funny and a great driver. He gave us a lot of information and was a pleasure to be in his company.

Perfect Adventure (i.e. Mr. Yanni is the Best!)
We decided to do a wine tour at the last second in the morning of our tour. Mr. Yanni was able to pick us up from our hotel and take us to the Tatakis winery as the original winery was not able to fit us in with our last second booking. Yanni was amazing conversation to the winery and we had such a fantastic time. Would highly recommend Yanni and LocalTrips4U for anyone wanting to drinking some amazing Cretan wine and have a great time!

Delicious food and wine, charming family run business, stunning views.
I am so pleased that I booked this experience, it added local culture, delicious wine and food and stunning views to our trip to Crete. Domaine Paterianakis is a wonderful family business making organic wines in a breath takingly beautiful part of the world. The family running the winery were very welcoming and charming. We tasted 5 wines, which we chose and had a beautiful platter of local foods to go with it. Great value, super friendly and very interesting. Don't miss it!

Wonderful experience. One to recommend
Amazing experience, from arrival the staff at the winery were great and very pleasant. The tour was good and a lovely experience. The tour operator could do better with providing notice a bit early with regards to time of pick up, say two hours before or a day before. But the driver who picked us up was very good and had a decent AC!
