Top Crete Outdoor Activities - page 3

Alex was amazing - informative - friendly & the tour was great! I have no idea how he makes any money at that cost. It's worth three times what he's charging. The dragon fruit addition to the farm was interesting. Lots of taste testing. Buy his products!!! Support local.

Given the incredible amount of positive reviews this tour has on TripAdvisor and Viator, I was of course expecting it to be a great excursion ... and those reviews turned out to be completely true! This was an incredible way to get acquainted with Crete on our first day in Greece and Nikos, our guide, was exceptional. His passion for Crete is palpable, which makes sense as it is where he was born, raised, and currently operates a self-sustaining farm. Even though we were unable to tour the Cave of Zeus, the stop off at the ceramics workshop was actually a highlight for us! It was incredible getting to watch a master at work in his shop and his crafts were beautiful ... we purchased quite a bit :) Nikos' humor also made the excursion incredibly fun and light-hearted. We'll be recommending this tour to all of our friends and family who find themselves in Crete and you can rest assured that your money will be well spent if you choose to do the same.

Well-organized tour with interesting stories from the guide and an amazing beach. You get about 4 hours at the beach, but keep in mind that it takes around 20 minutes to walk from the bus stop to the shore, so in total you spend about 3h30m on the beach. Afterwards, we had about 1 hour in the village and enjoyed dinner. I would have preferred a better bus, as some seats in the back were broken. However, overall I definitely recommend this tour — the guide made the trip amazing with his jokes and funny facts. Special thanks to the driver, who drove carefully along the serpentine road, so we didn’t feel sick during the ride.

This was an amazing experience that we (myself and my partner) would recommended to anyone who is travelling through Crete 👍🏼 Our guide - George - was the best guide we possibly could have asked for. The experience was extremely high-quality and personalised. The treck itself was exhilarating and challenging at times - but, the perfect amount of both. As people who are relatively active, but had never done anything like this before - George made the experience feel like a breeze - he made us feel super comfortable and confident the entire way along. The whole way along the walk it just felt like talking to an old friend, cracking jokes, having fun, learning about everything Crete. This was a once in a lifetime experience and a must-do … Highly recommended!! 🙂

Matched the itinerary. It's a long drive but the guide provides plenty of history of the island along the way. The guide spoke 4 different languages to accommodate all guests. There was plenty of time for the beach portion and the guide gave excellent advice about where to set yourself up. Overall, long but good day.

Adrian was a great guide. We really were able to see the countryside of Crete from the mountains, the olive groves, the seaside, and small towns in between. The ATV ride itself was a bit challenging navigating some of the rocky dirt roads, but nothing the average person can’t handle. Also, we had just a gorgeous weather day which made the journey extremely enjoyable!

From pick up at the hotel to drop off everything was very well organised. The horses are incredible and extremely well looked after. I always worry when booking a trip like this it will be like the old school pony trekking with board horses but not the case here! The owners take great care in choosing the right horse for you, I have a hip issue at the moment but they worked around that to ensure I was safe and that I was enjoying the experience with out making me feel isolated from the rest of the group. Once back we had an incredible lunch served with home made wine, the food just kept coming and was so so good! The owners are welcoming and funny and make the experience a joy. Would we go again absolutely! As an experience rider I would love to go out for longer and get to see so much more of this beautiful countryside. Thank you for the experience We will always remember to have 'one more meat ball' ! 🤣

Beautiful experience right the mountains! It is a tiny family business and it feels good! Thie horses are sweet and friendly. The ballade was from the mountain down to the beach. The view was astonishing! And you discover less touristic areas which was charming. Only my mum, myself and Niko the horse owner. Niko was simply perfect! Very professional and friendly. He loves his horses. They are well cared of. We recommend this experience 100%!
