Breakfast Basket

The “Breakfast Basket” is a new initiative of the S.E.T.K.E., which started with the aim of upgrading the services offered by tourist accommodation and promoting small local producers.

With this new service, visitors will have the opportunity to taste local products and traditional dishes during their stay.

The breakfast basket will be offered in 2 forms:

  • Tourist accommodation businesses with no dining areas will offer a real basket with packaged local products.
  • Tourist accommodation businesses offering dining areas will include local products of small producers in the menu of their breakfast buffet.

Through the “Breakfast Basket” website, visitors will be able to learn about the nutritional values of the products and search for the details of local producers in order to obtain them

Furthermore, tourist accommodation owners certified with the “Breakfast Basket” will have the ability to enter the online platform where local producers and their products will be displayed and to obtain them at special prices.

Tourist accommodation owners who want to be certified with the “Breakfast Basket” certification can fill in and send a form of expression of interest.

Experience Tourism

As competition between hospitality businesses is growing, a tourist accommodation can be established in visitors’ perception in a specific niche way, so as to differentiate its product.

Our objective is for our business owners to become aware of and gradually develop their expertise in providing additional services offered by themselves and their local society, through experience tourism e.g. fishing, climbing, cycling, sailing, cooking etc.

This unique service, which can be promoted and offered by any small business, forms a proposal for a different tourist experience and the S.E.T.K.E. is in the process of completing the systematisation and a certification proposal for such services.

To achieve these objectives, the S.E.T.K.E. aims to establish a certification body, which will undertake the task of modernisation and will certify the accommodations in specialised forms of “experience tourism”.
