Traditional Crete, a Self-Reliant Paradise
Crete island is a unique place, a little self-reliant paradise. Everything is combined in harmony and balance on our island. The people, the land, the products, and the traditions. The local traditions of Crete are included in many aspects of peoples’ lives. Agriculture, life stock raising, and local gastronomy are just some of the main features of Cretan traditional life, which are still alive in many places on the island. We are inviting you to be part of this culture and experience a whole day like a real Cretan!
