Taste of Heaven
Our trip to Elafonisi and Famissi Beach was absolutely unforgettable! Christine and Kostas were fantastic tour leaders—warm, engaging, and so knowledgeable. Learning about the history of Crete and the traditional olive oil making process added such a rich layer to the experience. I loved getting a taste of different parts of the island, and I can't recommend this tour enough!"

Super recommend day-trip!
The day-trip was well-arranged with a very competent guide. We appreciated all the info shared by Adonis during the trip and how it took care of us. He was so patient in answering all the questions we posed!
The spots we visited were amazing. Elafonissi beach left us speechless and reaching the beach early in the morning (with reserved sunbeds and umbrella) gave us the opportunity to enjoy it before it became overcrowded.
The Milia village was worth the trip: the location in the mountains is great, the retreat looks very authentic and the food delicious.
We strongly recommend it!

We had an amazing private...
We had an amazing private tour to Knossos Palace from Chania, and it was one of the best experiences of our trip to Crete.
Christine was a fantastic guide! She is very knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about the history of Knossos and Crete. We learned so much and never felt rushed, and she was happy to answer all of our questions.
Our driver Thanos was incredibly kind, professional, and made the long drive comfortable and stress-free. We felt well taken care of from the moment we were picked up until we returned to Chania.
If you're thinking about visiting Knossos from Chania, I highly recommend this private tour. Having Christine and Thanos made all the difference! They were a wonderful team, and they helped make our day truly memorable. We would definitely do it again!

Perfect option to see Balos easily
This is a great excursion especially if you don't want to drive the rough road yourself or hike down to Balos in the heat. Yiannis was an experienced and informative driver. We took great pictures of Balos Bay and then had a relaxing afternoon at Falasarnna beach. The day ended with a nice lunch at the beach tavern.

Great day out with wonderful Host
Cannot rate this day highly enough. Angie was so knowledgable and helpful. When the gorge was closed due to high winds she quickly adapted the day to suit us. Also when my husband left his sunglasses in the car she went out of her way to get them back to us again, enlisting the help of her cousin. Thank you so much!

Wonderful beach experience
We were unable to go to Elafonissi due to road construction and our requirement to get back to our ship on time. This tour operator offered another beach experience, which was beautiful. Our experience is that this man is a person of integrity. His driver was professional and very kind. We would recommend this operator to other travelers.

Gorgeous Imbros gorge.
Very well-organized tour and a beautiful gorge. The trail is not difficult, but you need to pay attention to where you step, as the rocks are uneven and can be slippery in some places. The swimming stop at Sfakia was great, with clear, refreshing water. The beach itself is quite narrow, so it can feel crowded, especially during busy times.

Book this!
Unbelievable experience. Our driver was fantastic and worked with us to get the most out of the experience. We were able to see and do everything we wanted while getting back to the cruise port on time. This was our favorite port because of this experience!

Beautiful tour and tasting
We had a beautiful time at the tasting and enjoyed great Cretan foods. Heads up that the drive on the mountains can give you car sickness so you might want to bring dramamine or something for motion sickness. Otherwise the tour guide was incredibly accommodating letting me sit in the front, and had plenty of cold water available through the trip. He even helped me with baby wipes to clean myself up. Super embarrassing but he was very kind, understanding, empathetic, and got off to the side of the road both times I asked. Despite the motion sickness I would still highly recommend this tour!

Fabulous way to experience Crete
Fabulous tour to see a part of Crete that is off the beaten path. Stopped to look at olive processing, off the regular road and up to a shepherds hut, scenic views, fresh oranges and more. Olga is a wonderful guide with a great sense of humor, knowledgeable and a safe driver. Lunch at the local restaurant was a real treat.

What a GREAT day on a beautiful island. George was fabulous! A week there would be better!
Thank you George for a GREAT day! The downtown of Chania was better than we ever thought as were the shops you brought us to run by 4th generation family. The scenery, the ruins, the love of your town that you gave to us was priceless. Do not miss this tour with George!

Crete awesome experiance
This tour is absolutely amazing. We got picked up by Vicellis, I hope I spelled it right, and he was on time and a smile on his face. He was awesome. He immediately gave us waters and drove us into town to see some sites. Then we picked up another couple and went to the olive oil tree farm and had coffee. A beautiful cafe with a huge grape vine for shade like beer garden. Coffee was awesome. Then he took us to a winery and olive oil farm. The wine was awesome and the olive oil is out of this world. Now I know why Crete is one of the best olive oil producers. We tried many wines and with some snacks. Then we proceeded to a lunch spot that was one of the best views I have ever seen. You eat overlooking a gorge in the white mountains. The Greek food was amazing. Vicellis took very good care of us. He taught us some bee facts but every step of the way was first class. He got us back to the boat no issues and we had a blast. One of the best tours we have taken. Money well spent on this one. If your in Crete this is a must!!
