Our journey takes us through the stunning valleys of Malevizi and Messara, home to millions of olive trees. We then go on an off-road jeep ride through the Asterousia mountain range, exploring rarely seen areas. We stop at an observation deck at the peak of the mountains to admire eagles and the breathtaking canyon and Libyan Sea in the background.
