★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had a lovely visit. Free entrance and a guided tour within the factory to explore all stations from olive till oil. You can also taste everything and if wanted you can also buy at fair prices.
You feel their passion and love.
Our favorite was "my olive oil".

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Staff are very friendly and the tour is quite informative. Although the tour is free there is an expectation that visitors will buy products at the end of the tour (which are a little more towards the pricey side compared to similar items sold elsewhere). We found it very difficult to locate using local GPS - try calling for directions because it's a quiet area.
Overall a great cultural experience considering Crete has the largest consumption of olive oil per person in the world :)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Olive oil factory and nothing more. We had a guided tour who explained all the machineries and processes. If you have been to other places like this, you'we seen it all.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Went here as part of a small trip around Crete. For me it was interesting to learn the history of how olive oil was and is made. If you are a fan of olive oil products like oil, soaps, beauty products this is the right place to be. Before making a decision you can opt to taste and test these products. Because of pandemic restrictions the tour was short thus we couldn't see the entire factory.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great factory and friendly people, the tour is free but we didn't take one because we saw a lot of olive oil factories during past holidays. A wide variëty of oils and other products made with olives.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 10/10 Overall. Extra marks for hospitality. Very interesting to learn and see.
I showed up like 3 days after the country started allowing visitors again from Covid. I drove there on a whim from a hotel recommendation and got there at 0900 when they opened just hoping to see something interesting. They seemed surprised but completely accomodated me, gave me a tour, showed me many interesting things about Olives and the process of making oil.
There was an olive oil ? tasting at the end. I had never done that before, but found it informative. They let me try a whole range of olive based products, bread spreads, they have an olive jam, some lotions that the man could not speak to but let me try ??. Very happy.
