Greece Luxury Anniversary & Birthday Trip Review: Crete Olive Farm Tour & Oldest Olive Tree, Santorini Minoan Ruins, Wineries

Our agent's hand-picked guides at the archaeological and historical sites were top notch and in most cases were archaeologists or historians. Our agent arranged a four day trip to Crete where we had a full day touring: wineries, organic olive oil producer, small family honey farm, a visit to a 400-year-old family olive farm and saw the oldest olive tree in the world (3000-years-old and still producing!) We spent 3 days on Santorini (definitely worth visiting the ancient Minoan ruins of Akrotiri) and an absolutely fabulous private cruise aboard a catamaran around the caldera! We also had a four-day journey into the countryside of Greece to see so many more things that the typical tourist doesn’t see from a cruise ship. Our private driver kept us safe and on time as well as his engaging personality and knowledge of each site we visited made this such a unique adventure. An overnight visit to a B&B with a wine tasting and in-depth knowledge of the owners' olive trees was probably the most delightful part of our journey. Had we known, we would have stayed longer!
