Your guide will pick you up from your accommodation in Heraklion and the journey begins by driving on a country road through the Asterousia Mountains. From here you can experience the astonishing natural scenery, breathtaking gorges, bare rocks, and wild plant life. Driving up on the top of the mountain, overlooking the Libyan Sea, you’ll realize why ancient Cretans chose this place for their "Asklipeeon", a temple dedicated to Asclepius, the god of medicine. It is believed that the place still has healing properties because of the calm positive emotions it creates. Moving on, you’ll come across a characteristic lion like rock, that is a well-known local landmark. Traveling down the spectacular southern shore, you’ll step into a peaceful village by the sea, Lentas, where you can swim in the clear blue waters. Refreshing beverages will be waiting for you together with traditionally inspired Cretan brunch. Get the chance to taste delicious small dishes prepared by a local tavern that you can enjoy on a relaxed day on the beach.
For the lovers of adventure, you can take a hiking path to the head of the lion rock. Instead, you can choose, after a short drive, to follow a trail through a gorge that ends up in a beautiful beach.
Get the most of a private tour with a guide who knows the history and legends of the island, but also hidden treasures that is eager to share with you. Your own tour guide will be by your side to offer you unique proposals that suit your personal style and make sure that you get every desire fulfilled.
At the end of the tour, take pleasure in a full gastronomy experience at a cozy local tavern. Enjoy fresh fish or local meat with home-grown vegetables and let our sommelier serve you the perfect wine to pair with.
