O que esperar

Fazendas familiares de pequena escala são parte integrante da dieta mediterrânea pela qual Creta é tão famosa. Uma família local lhe dará as boas-vindas em seu Mitato, uma pequena casa de fazenda, onde você será recebido com o calor genuíno da hospitalidade cretense. Ouça o fazendeiro local contar a intrigante história do Rei Minoas, que observava de seu observatório e alertava os moradores sobre a chegada de piratas. Saudações encerradas, é hora de uma aula prática de panificação, aprendendo as técnicas do pão típico cretense, feito com farinha de trigo e cevada.

Depois, testemunhe suas habilidades de fabricação de queijo usando leite de cabra da fazenda. Em seguida, é hora de arregaçar as mangas e se empenhar, ajudando com as tarefas diárias da fazenda, como alimentar cabras, porcos, galinhas e coelhos, e cuidar dos jardins. A aventura continua com uma caça aos caracóis na encosta da montanha, exclusiva para viajantes da National Geographic, espiando sob pedras e entre arbustos e flores. Conforme o dia se desenrola, seus tesouros coletados, incluindo caracóis, ovos, frutas e vegetais, se tornam os ingredientes para o almoço.

Junto com a família, você preparará um banquete de iguarias locais, todas feitas com os produtos do seu dia de trabalho. Termine a experiência com um gostinho do espírito de Creta, Raki, e por que não cantar junto com suas tradicionais 'Mantinades' cretenses, - dísticos tradicionais cretenses que expressam sentimentos sobre a vida diária cretense.

Nat Geo Day Tour: Discover Cretan Farm Life

Small-scale, family-run farms are integral to the Mediterranean diet that Crete is so famous for. A local family will welcome you to their Mitato, a small farmhouse, where you'll be greeted with the genuine warmth of Cretan hospitality. Listen to the local farmer tell the intriguing tale of King Minoas who watched from his observatory, and alerted locals to incoming pirates. Greetings over, it's time for a hands-on bread-making lesson, learning the techniques for typical Cretan bread, made with wheat and barley flour. Then, witness their cheese-making skills using goat's milk from the farm. Next, it's time to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in, helping out with daily farm tasks like feeding the goats, pigs, chickens, and rabbits, and tending to the gardens. The adventure continues with a snail hunt over the mountainside, exclusive to National Geographic travellers, peeking under rocks, and among shrubs and flowers. As the day unfolds, your collected treasures, including snails, eggs, fruit, and vegetables, become the ingredients for lunch. Alongside the family, you'll prepare a feast of local delicacies, all made from the products of your day's work. Finish off the experience with a taste of Crete's spirit, Raki, and why not sing along to their traditional Cretan ‘Mantinades,' - traditional Cretan couplets that express sentiments about Cretan daily life.

Crete is the cradle of wine history, with its authentic country life and indigenous grape varieties dating far back to the ancient Minoans.
