Beschreibung

Kleine, familiengeführte Bauernhöfe sind ein wesentlicher Bestandteil der mediterranen Ernährung, für die Kreta so bekannt ist. Eine einheimische Familie heißt Sie in ihrem Mitato, einem kleinen Bauernhaus, willkommen, wo Sie mit kretischer Gastfreundschaft empfangen werden. Lauschen Sie dem Bauern, der Ihnen die faszinierende Geschichte von König Minoas erzählt, der von seinem Aussichtsturm aus das Meer beobachtete und die Einheimischen vor ankommenden Piraten warnte. Nach der Begrüßung ist es Zeit für einen praktischen Brotbackkurs, bei dem Sie die Techniken für typisch kretisches Brot aus Weizen- und Gerstenmehl kennenlernen.

Entdecken Sie anschließend die Käseherstellung mit Ziegenmilch aus dem eigenen Betrieb. Als Nächstes ist es an der Zeit, die Ärmel hochzukrempeln und bei der täglichen Arbeit auf dem Bauernhof mitzuhelfen, z.B. beim Füttern der Ziegen, Schweine, Hühner und Kaninchen und bei der Pflege des Gartens. Das Abenteuer geht weiter mit einer Schneckenjagd über den Berghang, exklusiv für National Geographic-Reisende, unter Felsen und zwischen Sträuchern und Blumen. Im Laufe des Tages werden Ihre gesammelten Schätze, darunter Schnecken, Eier, Obst und Gemüse, als Zutaten für das Mittagessen verwendet.

Zusammen mit der einheimischen Familie bereiten Sie ein Festmahl mit lokalen Köstlichkeiten zu, die alle aus den Produkten Ihrer Arbeit hergestellt werden. Lassen Sie den Tag mit einer Kostprobe des kretischen Raki ausklingen und singen Sie die traditionellen "Mantinades" mit - einheimische Lieder, die Gefühle über das tägliche Leben auf Kreta ausdrücken.

Nat Geo Day Tour: Discover Cretan Farm Life

Small-scale, family-run farms are integral to the Mediterranean diet that Crete is so famous for. A local family will welcome you to their Mitato, a small farmhouse, where you'll be greeted with the genuine warmth of Cretan hospitality. Listen to the local farmer tell the intriguing tale of King Minoas who watched from his observatory, and alerted locals to incoming pirates. Greetings over, it's time for a hands-on bread-making lesson, learning the techniques for typical Cretan bread, made with wheat and barley flour. Then, witness their cheese-making skills using goat's milk from the farm. Next, it's time to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in, helping out with daily farm tasks like feeding the goats, pigs, chickens, and rabbits, and tending to the gardens. The adventure continues with a snail hunt over the mountainside, exclusive to National Geographic travellers, peeking under rocks, and among shrubs and flowers. As the day unfolds, your collected treasures, including snails, eggs, fruit, and vegetables, become the ingredients for lunch. Alongside the family, you'll prepare a feast of local delicacies, all made from the products of your day's work. Finish off the experience with a taste of Crete's spirit, Raki, and why not sing along to their traditional Cretan ‘Mantinades,' - traditional Cretan couplets that express sentiments about Cretan daily life.
