Additional Information

It was likely the Daily Telegraph that suggested a unique reason to tour each Greek island a few years ago. For Crete, the main lure was the cuisine. Local residents would undoubtedly concur, as while 90% of the Greek islands possess unrivaled allure, Crete adds to that appeal with the highest-grade food. Clearly, a culinary exploration of the city…

Great experience to explore Crete food and products - Took my in-laws to Greece for the 2 st time and they had a blast even tho they didn’t speak English Christos was very patient for my wife to translate everything he was saying my recommendation is to skip lunch before because you will be well fed

Delicious food tour with Christos - Christos made our food tour in Chania a wonderful one! His passion for Cretan cuisine was unmatched and we appreciated the variety of cheeses, pastries, coffee, and the herbal shop visit that we were able to visit. He was well versed in the history behind each tasting and provided interesting information about Chania and the surrounding areas along the way, and followed up with more recommendations for us afterward. Highly recommend Christos and the tour!

Exceptional Tour - Kristos did an amazing job accommodating our last minute same day reservation as well as our food allergies. He was very knowledgeable about both the food we ate as well as the local history. He was professional as well as personable. Come hungry, way more food than we could possibly eat. We really enjoyed the tasting and variety of foods in Chania. We enjoyed walking through the quaint and historical city. Highly recommend this tour.

Must do food tour! - Must do tour! Our walking food tour of Chania with Christos was nothing short of incredible. Christos is kind, knowledgeable, and made the tour unforgettable. By the end of our tour we felt like we were friends with Christos. We have taken food tours in cities all around Europe and this is by far our favorite.

Best thing we did in Chania! - My husband and I booked a private food tour with Christos and it was excellent. We got an opportunity to taste some of the delicious foods that Chania is famous for. We left full and also learned a lot about Chania. Christos was an amazing guide and we enjoyed so much getting to know him. He took us to watch knives being made by hand and to a small herbal store where we were taught about plants and herbal remedies. He took up to streets in the old town that we would never have found on our own. He was so kind and easy to chat with and made certain that we were having the best time and enjoying every moment. He even made reservations for us for dinner that night at his favorite restaurant. He has been a great resource for other questions and recommendations for the remainder of trip. So not hesitate to book this tour!
