An authentic taste of mountain life in Crete - George's professionalism and genuine kindness shone through again on our second day, making the experience truly special. Our journey took us through charming villages to the Sfendoni Cave, a truly stunning natural wonder. From there, we climbed higher into the mountains, reaching a traditional shepherd’s shelter. After a few days by the beach, this wild and mesmerizing landscape felt like a completely different side of Crete; one that slowly, beautifully seeps into you. The kids absolutely loved every moment with the animals, watching goats being milked, picking fresh vegetables, and even helping make traditional cheese and pies. Lunch was a real highlight: antikristo (roasted lamb) and local delicacies, all served with homemade wine. It was a true feast of authentic Cretan flavors! It was a perfect, hands-on day for the whole family that we'll cherish forever!
