Discover the beauty and history of Crete on two wheels.
This experience blends culture, history, and scenic landscapes into a relaxed and rewarding ride through the Cretan countryside. Starting from Rethymno, we head inland through picturesque villages, enjoying a gentle ascent made effortless with our premium e-bikes. Our first major stop is the historic Arkadi Monastery, a landmark of great cultural and historical importance, known for its impressive Venetian architecture and symbolic role in Cretan history.
From there, we continue along peaceful countryside roads toward the charming area of Eleftherna, once home to one of the most significant ancient cities of Crete. Riding through the modern village, we experience its authentic character before heading to Margarites Village, famous for its long-standing pottery tradition and artistic heritage. Here, we take a relaxing break at a family-run taverna to enjoy a light traditional meal, before continuing our ride back through quiet, scenic routes surrounded by nature.
