Private Sarakina Gorge Adventure with Lunch

Immerse yourself in the natural splendor and cultural charm of Crete, Greece, on this unique journey to Sarakina Gorge. This is your ticket to tranquility amidst the bustling life surrounding the port of Agios Nikolaos.

The tour perfectly balances natural splendor with cultural exploration. You'll first venture to an authentic olive oil farm for a tasting, followed by a stop at the charming Kritsa village. A museum visit introduces you to the rich world of Crete's herbs before you commence your gorge adventure.

Located near the quaint village of Mythi, Sarakina Gorge’s awe-inspiring narrow canyon boasts 150 meter-high limestone walls adorned with small waterfalls and lush vegetation. At its base, a serene stream flows, which you will follow on a visually stunning, memorable journey.

As you amble along, the melodious calls of local birds and the soothing stream form a serene symphony, melting your cares away. The walk is accessible and enjoyable; varying between 3 and 10 meters in width and a length of 1.5 kilometers, the path contains no significant height changes. Nevertheless, mind your steps, as certain sections may be slick or uneven.

Along the route, you’ll discover historical small caves and niches that served as refuges and resistance hideouts during the tumultuous times of World War II.

Reward your trek through the gorge with a dip in the stream's refreshing pool. Nestled beneath a quaint waterfall and surrounded by abundant greenery, this peaceful spot is a perfect place to unwind. After your hike, enjoy a leisurely lunch at a local taverna, savoring authentic Cretan cuisine.
