Informative tour to the olive trees and the grounds of the olive farm, explaining the whole production process in an understandable way. At the end of the tour, there were delicacies of the region with their own olive oil. A beautiful and delicious experience.

Wonderful tour! - We enjoyed a lovely tour at Kleanthi Olive Farm during our trip to Crete this November! Mary was a fantastic guide and provided really interesting info - it was fascinating to learn how the whole process works from harvest to pressing the oil. The tasting at the end was delicious and generously portioned! It was a highlight of our trip.

Exceptional Olive Oil Experience at Kleanthi - Visiting Kleanthi was an absolute highlight of my trip to Crete. This beautiful olive farm offers not just a tour, but a real journey into the heart of Cretan culture. The highlight was, of course, the tasting. Paired with delicious local delicacies, their extra virgin olive oil was by far the best I have ever tasted – rich, fresh, and full of flavor. You can truly taste the passion and care that goes into every drop. The setting, the hospitality, and the knowledge shared made this visit truly unforgettable. If you are in Crete, do not miss the chance to visit Kleanthi – it’s the perfect blend of history, culture, and flavor.

Super experience! - Fantastic experience, with enthusiastic guide who told lively and passionate about the olive production. After a walk around the grove, and in and see the "factory", were served tasting on their own olive oil production. This was exquisite, served with bread and a large dish of cheese, fruit, meat, olives, tomatoes, syrup and honey of various kinds. The oil was poured on a dish and varied with oregano, thyme, honey and syrup in each corner. Really delicious experience, and it was all very fantastic.

Don’t Go Off-Season! - Meh if it’s off-season. The place was empty and had nothing going on. The people were nice, but it was so dull.
