Quad Tour to Milatos Beach with Swimming and BBQ Lunch

About the Activity

What to Expect

Embark on an unforgettable guided quad tour in Crete, driving uphill through lush olive groves to reach the Chapel of the Prophet Elias, where stunning panoramic views await. Before we embark on this unforgettable guided quad tour, our expert instructors will provide a thorough introduction to the ATV vehicles. Even beginners will be ready to explore Crete safely, with plenty of fun and excitement!

We kick off our adventure by heading uphill on an off-road path through lush olive groves, arriving at the Chapel of the Prophet Elias to take in the stunning panoramic views. Next, it’s time for more off-roading! We descend through vibrant landscapes, navigating an impressive route between vineyards and olive forests. You'll be amazed by the natural beauty of Crete as we venture deeper into its heart.

Our journey continues with a visit to a local Olive oil factory. Here, you will learn about the olive oil extraction process and enjoy a taste test of this Cretan staple. We then traverse dirt roads to reach the historical Cave of Milatos, surrounded by impressive mountains and rich wildlife. Take this opportunity to gather some local herbs and immerse yourself in nature. After capturing stunning photos, we explore the ancient path leading to Milatos Cave, one of Crete's most historic sites. Next, we head to Milatos Beach for a refreshing swim in its crystal-clear waters. Our seaside safari then takes us through the narrow streets of Milatos and Sissi, two quintessential fishing villages that showcase traditional Cretan life. The adventure continues with a fun-filled off-road journey along dynamic dusty-sandy routes. We conclude our tour in the village of Malia, where we will enjoy a delicious lunch.
