Tours and experiences in Crete

The gorge of Samaria is situated in the National Park of Samaria, in the White Mountains in West Crete. This majestuous gorge is considered one of the great attractions of Crete and many tourists want to visit it. But you must realize that it is a long (5 to 7 hours) walk on rough terrain so you will need to have a certain degree of fitness and walking experience to enjoy it. We will take you first along the north coast and then up into the White Mountains to the Omalos Plateau and the entrance to the gorge.

There, at a height of 1.100m, you will begin the 16km walk through the longest and most beautiful gorge in Europe. After the strenuous but spectacular walk, you will be conveyed by boat on an equally glorious trip from Agia Roumeli, the village at the end of the gorge, to Chora Sfakion, where the bus will be waiting to take you back home. Good walking shoes are necessary.

If you want an excursion that offers the combination of local historical knowledge, along with relaxation we offer you a journey to South Crete. After we visit the great archaelogical sites of Gortys and Faistos we will enjoy the crystal blue water of South Crete, at the famous Matala beach.

This private tour includes a visit to Knossos Palace, linked to the legend of the Minotaur, and a stop at a family-run olive oil farm. You’ll learn about olive cultivation, harvesting, and the production of extra virgin olive oil, including tasting it. Enjoy Cretan hospitality while exploring history and local traditions

A private day tour in Crete to Margarites village, Arkadi Monastery, and Rethymno has something to offer to everyone, whether you are interested in history, culture, nature, or just relaxing on the beach, is a great way to explore the historical and cultural sites of Crete. Rethymno is a charming coastal town located on the northern coast of the island of Crete in Greece.

It is known for its well-preserved Venetian-era old town, which is a maze of narrow streets and alleys, lined with colourful buildings, shops, and cafes. The old town is also home to several historic landmarks and attractions, including the Fortezza, a 16th-century fortress, and the Rimondi Fountain, a beautiful Venetian fountain. Enjoy your lunch in Rethymno before the driver transfers you back to the ship.
