Wonderful Wine Tour & Tasting Experience - We really enjoyed everything. Our driver picked us up and was super kind and entertaining! She gave us so much valuable information and insight into life in Crete. The wine tour and tasting was excellent. Our guide was super informative, fun, and enthusiastic - and the wine was really very nice and unique to the area. Loved every minute of the tour and the tasting.

Best day ever - Our trip was amazing, our guide took us to a 2,000 year old olive tree, gave us oranges and avocados. Dropped us off at the winery, when he picked us up, he took us to his farm to have Raki and pet some horses! Basically the best day ever!

Excellent value for money - The driver, Anastazio, was very engaging and told us a lot about the island and its history. The winery tour is short but interesting. However the wine tasting is an hour and a half sat at a table on the patio, which is a gorgeous location. You get 5 wines to taste with an explanation of each. There is the option to buy food, such as a charcuterie plate or a full lunch, and extra glasses of wine if you wish. All in it’s a 4 hour trip.

Take the tour! - A little out of the way from chania, but well worth the trip. Informative tour of wine production and storage barrels. Generous pours of 5 wines. A good introduction to Cretan wines.

A Great Outing in the Countryside - We had a wonderful time at the Manousakis Winery! The grounds are beautiful, the food was tasty. The store has many offerings - it is definitely a worthwhile stop. Our driver, Anastasis, was excellent! He gave an in-depth history of Crete on the way up to the winery with many interesting historical points. He also stopped along the way there and back to let us take pictures of a beautiful Greek Orthodox Church and the remains of a Roman bridge that had been recently washed away in torrential rains. All in all, we had a great time!

We were picked up at... - We were picked up at our hotel by a very nice and helpful driver. We were 2 couples in the same minivan. I walk with a walker and have trouble with high steps. But with my little stool's help, it went well. The wines we tasted were of good quality, the only thing was that it was cheap with free accessories. The only thing was a little crostini with olive oil. You had to order and pay for the rest. A little bread to dip in the oil would have been great.

Very lovely with great tasting wines! We enjoyed every sample (5 total ) and bought a bottle to take back to hotel - Would recommend this winery tour if you are looking for great tasting wines. From hotel pick-up to drop off was a total of 3 1/2 hours. Perfect for having time to enjoy the rest of your day!

Cretan wine tasting very worthwhile - The ride to and from the winery through the small villages and fields of oranges and avocados was really beautiful. Anastasio picked up our group of eight on schedule and drove us to the winery and gave us an entertaining lesson in the history of Crete on the way. The winery tour took about fifteen minutes and was worthwhile since we got to see and learn a little about how the wine is produced. Then we had the wine tasting of two whites and three reds. The wine was quite good.
