About This Tour
Taste the unique monastery wines of Chania in the most atmospheric environment. Visit the Venetian monastery of Agia Triada Tzagkarolon in Chania and learn how the monks are producing their famous local wines.
Notes
Please note that Agia Triada Monastery is a famous site of Chania and it could be quite crowded if we visit during a busy day. We always try to arrange our visits during the quiet hours, so the pick up time would be a subject of change when necessary.
Since we visit a monastery, a proper dress code is required. Long sleeves and trousers and/or long skirts for women. Please respect the monastery dress rules.
Apart of the monastery, we can visit Venizelos graves for the panoramic view of Chania or the historic beach of Stavros.
