The rugged mountains and sun-baked plains of Crete are best explored in an access-all-areas 4x4 vehicle. Head for the heart of Crete, where you'll explore the countryside to rumble through hidden villages and down dirt tracks to discover a world untouched by time.
The day begins with a visit to Omalia olive press, where the aroma of fresh olives fills the air. Next, we traverse the scenic Lassithi Plateau and make our way to Lassinthos Eco park. The drive continues off-road, climbing till we're 1200m above sea level - a picture-perfect moment with the magnificent North coast of Crete as your backdrop.
Next, a traditional Cretan lunch at a local tavern is sure to tantalise your tastebuds. As we navigate through the narrow alleys of various small villages, each bend reveals yet another spectacular view. To round off the day, we'll visit the impressive Skotino cave. Relatively unknown, this natural wonder invites you to explore its depths. The return trip promises more awe-inspiring vistas as we make our way back to base.
