This tour starts with our first stop in the olive grove where olive trees grow under the Greek sun. You will touch and smell the trees, learn about different olive varieties and the olive tree itself such as it’s long life and cultivation but also picking techniques. A picnic awaits with delicious local delicacies under an ancient olive tree,just like the olive pickers used to eat during harvest. Our second part of the tour is a stroll through a traditional Greek village relaxing and enjoying the moments. We take time in catching the sounds, sights and smells. We will walk by olive trees, chestnuts,walnut trees and typical village Greek houses.

Our final stop is a restored house from the 19th century (local Folkore museum) where, under the sound of Greek musik, you will learn the secrets of olive oil. An expert olive oil connoisseur will guide you through the steps of olive oil tasting where you will learn to recognize the aromas of fresh fruit and to appreciate the smooth bitter taste and spicy sensation in an olive oil.

You will have the possibility to discuss the health and other benefits of using olive oil while enjoying a light snack.
