Beschreibung

Die winzige Insel Spinalonga ist nur einen Katzensprung von Kreta entfernt, aber ein Besuch mutet wie eine Reise in die Vergangenheit an. Jahrhunderte der Geschichte sind in den, die Insel umgebenden Mauern verborgen. Betrachten Sie die Insel mit den Augen der Einheimischen auf dieser exklusiven Ganztagestour, die auch zwei Küstenstädte in der Mirabello-Bucht umfasst. Veta, eine unserer ortskundigen Tourguides, sagt: "Sie besuchen das hübsche Fischerdorf Elounda und die Küstenstadt Agios Nikolaos auf Ihrer Tour. In einer Taverne werden Sie mit typisch kretischen Gerichte verwöhnt".

Spinalonga hatte im Laufe der Zeit viele Bedeutungen, darunter ein venezianischer Außenposten und eine osmanische Stadt. Hier wurde sogar eine Leprakolonie errichtet, was ihr den Beinamen "Insel der Tränen" einbrachte. Sie machen einen Spaziergang mit unserem örtlichen Guide, der Sie durch enge Gassen mit längst verlassenen, dachlosen Häusern führt und Ihnen die Festung sowie die Kolonie zeigt, die in den 1950er Jahren geschlossen wurde. Ihr Vorteil ist, dass Sie mit der ersten Fähre des Tages vor den üblichen Besuchermassen ankommen.

Auf der Rückfahrt halten Sie im Küstenort Elounda. Dort haben Sie etwas Zeit zur freien Verfügung. Gehen Sie schwimmen, strecken Sie sich in der Sonne aus oder beobachten Sie das geschäftige Treiben in einer der vielen familiengeführten Bars am Wasser. Anschließend genießen Sie in einer nahe gelegenen Taverne ein leckeres kretisches Mittagessen. Sie runden Ihren Tag mit einem Besuch in Agios Nikolaos ab, einer schicken Küstenstadt, die von zwei vorgelagerten Inseln geschützt wird. Viele zieht es hier in die Bars mit Blick auf das von Booten gesäumte Hafenbecken.

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.

Crete is the cradle of wine history, with its authentic country life and indigenous grape varieties dating far back to the ancient Minoans.

Here we'll tour the facilities and surrounding groves before a Cretan olive oil tasting session. ‘Olive oil has been a Cretan staple since Minoan times. Archeologists have found evidence that the Minoans, the earliest Cretan civilization, used olive oil for rituals, medicine and culinary purposes,' adds Veta.
