Well worth the trip. Entry €3 per person. My granddaughter (age 3) loved feeding all the donkeys and only €3 for a bag of food. She really enjoyed riding one of the donkey's. There was no real time limits set, the owner just set up the saddle, gave us the donkey reins and pointed the direction/course we should walk. Very relaxed and peaceful environment with stunning views. Plenty of drink choices to relax at the bar / restaurant area. We had to purchase some of the homemade Cherry liquor and homemade honey after taste testing. The Greek owner was warm, very friendly and welcoming. We all had a really fun time. Just to add, all animals on the farm looked healthy and well cared for!

Great place to visit!! A lot of lovely donkeys that you can feed very cheaply. The owner is a cool guy that keeps all the business running and selling lots of his fruits, honey and wines.

We visited yesterday with our children who were greeted at the door by a kitten! So they were sold immediately. The owner was welcoming and friendly. We visited and fed the donkeys, then had a freshly squeezed juice made with fruits grown on site. They were the best juices we’d ever had! We also bought some honey, cherry liqueur and olive oil, all made there. Can’t wait to try them when we get home!

We saw about 20 donkleys across the whole farm. They were separated in various groups on the farm. The donkeys were so friendly and loved a head rub. There are also chickens, ducks, other birds, and rabbits. All animals had food and shade. The owner also grows tomatoes and other veg. There is a very small section of veg and fruit to purchase as well as some souvenirs. The view from the cafe is amazing. The entrance is €2 and you can purchase donkey food bags for €3.

A little gem of a place. A must visit to see the awesome donkeys. There were 4 new babies when we visited in June. Great bar/cafe area selling drinks, cakes and fresh fruit. Good selection of homemade items too. Only a couple of euros to enter the farm area and supports the welfare of the animals. Don’t forget to buy a bag of donkey treats before you go in!!

Lovely little place where you can buy treats to feed to the beautiful donkeys. Set on the hillside, the scenery is stunning.

Charming Visit to Trakkos Donkey Farm We stopped by Trakkos Donkey Farm and had a lovely visit. The owner was incredibly friendly and took the time to tell us all about the donkeys, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The views from up there are absolutely stunning – a beautiful spot to take in the scenery. The small café on-site is a nice touch, and impressively, the owner built it all himself. We had a refreshing orange juice and a beer, but we’re not sure if food is served as we didn’t ask. There were also ice lollies available, which was perfect for the warm day. The donkeys were sweet and friendly. While a few did look a bit skinny, we still really enjoyed meeting and feeding them. It’s a peaceful little place and a lovely stop if you’re exploring the area. Our son especially loved seeing the donkeys up close – a simple but memorable experience for him. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a short, authentic stop with beautiful views and a warm welcome!
