The love for our Greece, our Crete, our history, our traditions, our culture are what prompted us to compose a palette of gastronomic experiences for visitors and introduce them to the way of life of us and our ancestors.
Since Minoan times, Lassithi Plateau has been the land of fertility and love for food. We want to take you away from the crowded places of countless Instagram posts to the most untouched getaways of the island where time has stopped and history persists. This is why Crete Gastronomy Tours designed this gastronomic adventure for lovers of authentic gastronomy, art and mythical landscapes. This luxurious journey will take you to the charming Lassithi Plateau, small villages, the emblematic Windmills and breathtaking views of the Plateau.
In this tour from Heraklion we will cook together a Cretan traditional 5-course menu, with old traditional cooking techniques in parastia with fire and wood oven... Just like our grandmothers cooked! Then we will enjoy it all together with plenty of local wine and raki with endless fun and the best company! We will finish this gastronomic day by drinking a drink with wild herbs of the plateau, coming from the Minoan era!
