Private Tour of Elafonisi Beach with Cretan Culinary Experience

Bugatsa Breakfast in Chania: Start your day with a genuine Cretan culinary experience! Join us for a morning tasting of traditional Cretan breakfast at a local shop, where four generations have been crafting exquisite Cretan delicacies. On this excursion, immerse yourself in the ambiance of authentic Cretan cuisine as you sample fresh and aromatic pastries, including the splendid Bugatsa, prepared according to the family's traditional recipes. Taste and savor the authentic culinary experience that will bring you true pleasure and impressions of the local flavor.

Once in the alleys of the old town, we experience the most traditional backstreet culinary spots, visit different districts, such as the Turkish, Venetian, Christian, and Jewish ones, stopping in unique hidden corners and gardens, and having interesting conversations with local artisans skilled in the arts of ceramics, leather, and crafting knives. We will taste delicious local tapas, known as mezedes, and learn as well about the different influences that all the different civilizations that dominated the island over the centuries have had on the Cretan diet over the years. 

*Note: If the experience is in the afternoon, we replace the breakfast with traditional Cretan ice cream! **The return to the hotel takes about 20–40 minutes in the Chania region.
