This is a must-do wine-tasting tour you should do on your first day in Chania.
We meet at Anassa Boutique Hotel and Cafe on the Old Venetian Harbor. Here you’ll learn a bit about wine tasting while sipping 2 wines with a direct view of the lighthouse. A small snack accompanies the wines. Your guide will point out our favorite spots for lunch, dinner, wine and cocktails along the harbor.
Kritamon Wine Bar & Restaurant is our next stop where you’ll taste 2 more wines with a snack. You’ll be enchanted by the small little streets behind the harbor, or as we call them “ta stenakia.”
Next, we’ll walk to Splantzia Square, a neighborhood with tremendous historical significance. Two more Cretan wines are sampled with a small snack paired with it.
Last stop is at a local wine shop to taste one last wine, a sweet dessert wine made in the ancient liasto method. Here you can shop for any wines you liked throughout the wine tasting tour.

Nice night in Chania

5.00We were on a trip with Stella, around the old town of Chania. Stella told about the city, its history and its food culture. We were at 3 restaurants and get some tasting on some specialties. First place we got pulled pork, though not in the traditional sense, but more like burnt ends, tasted great, and some local wine to. At another place, got will cheese table and wine to. Nice and nice place by the water. We finished with dinner at a restaurant in the small streets. Here we got 5 dishes, all of which were delicious, and wine to. All in all a lovely evening.
Great tour!

5.00Very fun experience! Anastasia was very informative and made the trip amazing. Walk was easy and takes you through some of the beautiful areas of Old Town Chania. Perfect wine tour for beginner wine enthusiasts. She makes the experience comfortable and interesting! Anastasia was even able to give us some lunch recommendations after our tour. I would 100% recommend this experience.

5.00A great wee tour round Chania sampling some gorgeous local wines and food. A good pace and just enough wine to get a taste for more. Great to stop at the wine shop at the end. No pressure to buy but lots of info and advice if you want to. Anastasia was fun, informative and relaxed. Perfect group size of five. Highly recommended

5.00Thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Anastasia was a charming host and her presentation was not in the least pretentious. We tried some really nice wines and ate some delicious snacks and got a real feel of what Chania has to offer.
One of the best wine...

5.00One of the best wine tours we’ve been on. Anastasia was fantastic - funny and passionate teaching us about the history of the wines and Greece without getting too into the details. The walk helped us get our bearings around Chania too. Every place provided snacks which paired great with the wines - they even accommodated my gluten free dietary restriction. Absolutely fantastic - highly recommend!
Informative Wine Tasting

5.00We had a delightful wine tour with Anastasia. Our group of 9 family members all agreed that she provided the best education on wines and tastings that we have ever experienced. She presented the information in such a way that we were all comfortable asking questions and sharing our impressions of the wine. Not only were we able to sample a variety of wines, but we can also use this knowledge in the future. We would love to return to Crete and do a longer experience with Chania Wine Tours in the countryside.
Fun wine tour

5.00Anastasia is personable and knowledgeable. She made the tour fun! The wines were good along with snacks at each location. She was knowledgeable but not overbearing.
A must do!
