Agritourism & Wine Tourism in Heraklion, Crete
Wineries, olive groves, farms and workshops that welcome visitors, with the producer as your host.
The Heraklion region combines one of the oldest winegrowing traditions in Europe with a living agricultural hinterland. Archanes, Peza and Dafnes are known for their vineyards, and around them stretch olive groves, orchards and small producers. At Vathypetro, the remains of an ancient winery are a reminder of how old the relationship between this area and the vine really is.

Planning a visit to Heraklion
The hinterland offers far more than wineries: olive groves, local food producers, villages, archaeological sites and farming landscapes that change as you climb towards Mount Psiloritis. Most areas are a short distance from the city, so they combine easily into a single day out.
