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!

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.

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.

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 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.

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!

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.

Our driver was very informative and spoke pretty good English. He was right on time for our pick up. The tour itself was informative, although a little hard to understand. The wine tasting it was good, we ordered a charcuterie board to go with it which was very nice. I would recommend, as there is not a ton to do there.
