Olive Tree Museum of VouvesAfter a refreshing break we will head to the hinterland of Chania, in an area dominated by one of the most emblematic elements of the Cretan landscape; the olive tree! We will get to know the olive oil culture, beginning from the ‘grandma olive tree’, or else one of the oldest millennial olive trees of the world! After admiring its ca. 3000-year-old trunk we will visit the small museum right next to it, that narrates the history of the olive-oil production in the island, enriched with several interesting fun facts about it.
-
Astrikas Estate BioleaThen we will drive to a nearby village in order to visit the Biolea Olive Oil Mill and have a firsthand view of how the olive oil is produced in a traditional way, yet with modern equipment (stone mill, press).
