Authentic Cretan Farm Experience at Metochi
Looking for a truly authentic way to experience Cretan culture? This unique local experience invites you to step into everyday life at Metochi Farm, a traditional Cretan farmhouse with a history of more than 115 years.
Your visit begins with a warm welcome from the family who runs the farm. Together you’ll explore the land, walk through the vegetable garden, olive groves, vineyards, and meet the farm animals that are part of the daily life here. Along the way, you’ll learn about traditional farming methods and the local products that define the famous Cretan diet.
After the farm tour, the experience continues inside the farmhouse kitchen. Guided by Eleni and her mother, Chrisoula, you’ll prepare piatti tradizionali cretesi using fresh ingredients straight from the farm: extra virgin olive oil, seasonal vegetables, local cheeses, aromatic herbs, and regional wines.
But this is much more than a cooking lesson. It’s a chance to understand how food, land, and family traditions are deeply connected in Crete.
Once the cooking is complete, everyone gathers around the table to enjoy the meal prepared together, accompanied by local wine, traditional desserts, and of course, raki, the famous Cretan spirit.
This small-group experience is suitable for all ages and can be adapted to dietary preferences, including vegetarian, vegan, or lactose-free options.
