Our guides were a lot of fun to be with and seemed to know everything from mythology to historical facts to the best sites and the best restaurants! Couldn't have asked for more.

This tour began with a city tour of Iraklion around the old streets with Ira ending with a tasting of local pastries and coffee. We were then handed over to Katerina (an amazing guide with a professional archaeological background), our guide for the rest of the trip. After a visit to the archaeological museum to gain a great background in the history of the island, we visited the site of Knossos. The next day was a long one where we visited Chania with its historical Ottoman and Venetian influences, Rethymnon another old port with similar influences where we had lunch. On the way back to Iraklion we visited an interesting ceramic village. The third day involved a trip to the island of Spinalonga, a former fort and leper colony with a very interesting history, followed by a leisurely walk through Plaka. On reflection we wondered if we would have been better staying in Chania overnight to better appreciate the town. Didn’t feel like we had enough time to see everything we could have. The second day was long 8:30 to 6pm.
