What To Expect
Valley of the Butterflies
After this beautiful walk inside the Butterflies Valley, you are on your way to the local family owned vineyard and winery. Walk through the vineyard, listen to the owner talking about his indigenous and international varietals and explaining how wine is produced.
Then, sit at the large veranda having the vineyard in front of you. Taste the wines and have a lunch with plenty of local dishes, such as greek salad, feta cheese, eggplant salad, meat balls, chickpeas pies (pittaroudia), tzatziki, fresh fried potatoes, pumpkin balls, all cooked with Greek olive oil.
You can buy bottles of wines with labels not found in the market, exclusively made for the winery’s visitors.

Reviews
Then we headed off to the wine tasting at a local vineyard and winery which was not too far away from the valley. The wines were lovely and we also sampled some local olive oil and some spirits which was great!
Rather than have lunch at the winery, we opted to extend our tour to drive to Apollona to have lunch there, stopping along the way at some notable landmarks. This was considerably off the beaten track so it was really nice to see an arguably more authentic part of the island. Also the honey and olive oil we bought at the local shop in Apollona was amazing!
Special mention must go to our guide Alexis, who was very personable and knowledgeable about the island and was a great guide for the day. It really made the difference having that more personal touch for a trip like this.
Definitely give this a whirl if you want to have an experience which feels a bit more unique!
Then we took a little wine tasting before heading into the mountains. We stopped at an amazing small 15c church before taking a huge lunch in Apollonon - we couldn’t finish it despite Alex choosing delicious authentic dishes.
If you enjoy walking, culture and getting away from the bustle then you’ll really enjoy this.
