This olive oil tour is all about olive oil and fruit tasting! Our private olive oil tour in Chania starts with a stroll around our lush olive oil and farming valleys. We reach an elevated spot, in order to understand the scale of vegetation, production, and agriculture cultivation of Chania.
After a stop at a place of impeccable view where we will take unforgettable photo souvenirs, we hop onto a private olive grove. This session allows us to better understand the olive oil varieties in Crete, the Grades of Olive Oil produced in Chania and the significance of the farming methods in modern horticulture. Fresh Organic Olive Oil will be given to us for free, from the specific Olive Grove to take back home for Olive Tasting.
A local experienced and professional farmer will disclose to us the secrets of Olive Trees, and the methods of Farming, Irrigation and Grafting in order to produce a better olive crop, of the highest quality.
After this tour, we continue onwards in order to visit an old Olive Oil Mill, where we start to understand how olives were processed some centuries ago, by our Cretan ancestors. A full walkthrough of the Olive oil factory is being done, as we progress to make a stop for light lunch or coffee at a place full of lush vegetation and rivers passing by us. This is a perfect opportunity to also talk about the region of Apokoronas and the villages of Apokoronas where this tour takes place. We stand amused by the authentic and untouched environment, talking about the farmer’s life in Crete and the Flora and Fauna of Crete.
Then, we pay a visit to an ancient olive tree, more than 3000 years old, that is far away from the visitor’s eyes, in order to understand and admire nature at its finest, purest form. We stand in awe at the olive tree circumference and take some fantastic photographs.
At the end of the tour, we visit a modern olive oil factory in the region of Chania where our tour guide carefully explains the modern method of olive oil production, refinement and processing. We close this private nature tour in Chania with some olive oil tasting inside the factory, next to the processed olive oil equipment and machinery.
