Finikia Horseback Adventure with Traditional Meal

Begin your day by meeting your guide at a picturesque farm. Start with a cup of coffee and a basic riding lesson to ensure you feel comfortable and safe. Once ready, mount your horse and set off into the stunning Finikia mountains. The journey through the scenic trails offers invigorating views and a connection with nature. About an hour into the ride, pause at the mountain top for a break. Enjoy a soft drink and some fruit while taking in the breathtaking views and capturing memorable photos. The guide will share intriguing tales, including stories about the nearby mountain of Archanes, said to be the resting place of the Greek god Zeus. After the refreshing break, remount your horse and make your way back to the farm. The return ride offers more opportunities to immerse in the serene environment and appreciate the majestic landscape. Upon arrival at the farm, dismount and prepare to indulge in a delightful traditional Cretan lunch or dinner. The meal, featuring homemade wine and fresh, local ingredients, is served in the tranquil setting of the farm’s garden. Enjoy a leisurely time in the garden, perhaps with more wine, and relive the highlights of your journey. Depending on your departure time, additional time with the horses is also an option, allowing you to forge a deeper connection with these gentle creatures. Finally, your guide will ensure you return to your accommodation, concluding this enriching and scenic adventure.
