Programma

1. Stop 1 · 1 u 30 min

   A journey into the ancient Minoan civilization unfolds through the remarkable remains of Knossos Palace, where architecture, symbolism, and mythology offer insight into Europe’s earliest advanced society.
   
   From May 1, 2026, the visit to Knossos Palace is offered as an optional component of this private experience and requires approximately 90 minutes.

2. Stop 2 · 30 min

   You will discover how ‘liquid gold’ is produced from ancient times to the present day. During the olive oil tasting experience that follows, you will be enchanted by the flavors.
   Purchasing products is optional.

3. Stop 3 · 20 min

   The plane tree is approximately 2,400 years old and has a perimeter of 24 meters, generously offering its shade and coolness.
   Some say that it is haunted by the spirits of famous writers, historic deals, and oaths kept forever.

4. Stop 4 · 15 min

   The plateau is dotted with windmills, the most important of which used to mill grain.
   These imperious windmills have withstood the test of time and the battles with would-be Don Quixotes.

5. Stop 5 · 1 u

   The route through concealed villages will lead us to a tavern offering mouthwatering local delicacies.
   - A stop for lunch here is optional but highly recommended.

6. Stop 6 · 1 u 40 min

   Cave of Zeus (Dikteon Cave) — Optional visit
   
   Depending on the itinerary version you choose, the legendary birthplace of Zeus can be included as part of this private experience. The visit takes approximately 80 minutes total and includes a ~1 mile (1.6 km) uphill walk on stone-paved paths, plus steps leading to and from the cave entrance.
   
   The cave is seasonal and scheduled to operate from June 1 – 31 October 2026, subject to local authority conditions.
   
   When the cave is not visited, the tour naturally focuses on the Lassithi Plateau, traditional villages, viewpoints, and the wider mythological and cultural landscape connected to Zeus.

7. Stop 7 · 10 min

   Leaving the plateau behind, captivated by the panoramic views, we'll descend the mountain until we reach the sunken village of Sfendyli in the Aposelemis Dam. A brief stop will allow us to imagine how life in the village used to be, where one can almost see and hear children playing in a once vibrant community.
