ItineraryThis is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Fourni 724 00, Greece
Together we meet on our way astonishing mountain landscapes, hidden ancient churches with frescoes located in the mountain valleys, a traditional, but not a touristic village, where local people gasp when they see an unfamiliar car, it is so unusual for them to see "strangers" here (here we will have the opportunity to taste real Greek coffee in a real Greek kafeneio - well, let's try to pretend we are locals!)
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Moni Aretiou 724 00, Greece
Next stop is in medieval Monastery called Aretiou. It is located in very quiet area, surrounded by rocks and 12 old cypress trees. You can walk around to see its interior and meet very friendly monk Father Evmenios.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Plaka Marina- boot Spinalonga, Plaka 721 00, Greece
Ahead of us is a place called Plaka - it is a small fishing village, but with a huge soul and long history filled with interesting facts! On the way to Plaka the guide is telling us history facts about Spinalonga island which is opposite to the village. After that we will have a free time for a delicious lunch with fresh seafood in one of the best taverns in the area and time to dip into the clear Cretan Sea. Just next to the tavern there is an excellent beach with crystal clear water - however, the entrance here is rocky, so better be prepared! Special shoes for swimming will be a good choice!
