Top Crete Snorkeling

So much fun!!! It was my first time ever on a quad and what an exciting experience. Team was great with explaining the quad and how to control it. You see the countryside and the mountainsides. Amazing vistas that you see while you’re driving. Oh and don’t wear your Sunday best because you will get dirty!

Fun day with our tour guide Maria. We were the only ones on the tour we were able to hear so much about Crete from her throughout the day that would not have been the same with a large group. The Olive Mill was an interesting stop and we had a nice tasting there. Both wineries offered us 5 wine varieties and light snacks as well. Great day with a great tour guide!

It was our first excursion in Greece & our first stop was Crete! We couldn’t have asked for a perfect start to our cruise! Port pick up in the vans was very easy, and our driver Spiros was very nice - opening all doors, offering us candy, and making sure we were comfortable. The team that took us out on the boats and taught us to snorkel were lovely - very easy instructions even for beginner's, we ended up with Pantos and Orestes and they were both funny, kind, and encouraging. I’m not the best swimmer but I had a super fun time in the water! Orestes even had us climb up some smaller cliffs and jump off them, that was a huge highlight for me - who can say that they went cliff diving and swimming in the med on their honeymoon?! I can! Over all we had a wonderful afternoon in the sun, swimming, and enjoying the beautiful waters.

I can’t recommend this tour group any higher. We booked at the last minute because we discovered that today was a holiday and everything was closed. Our expectations were low since we booked what was available and figured it was better than doing nothing today. Wow were we blown away with the experience!! First of all, our guide Panos recognized that the itinerary while fantastic was possibly something we had already seen. Therefore, he quickly called his boss and made a pivot to what we were going to do for the day. It was absolutely phenomenal. We saw the countryside, Little villages, an amazing taverna with the most fabulous food, and the coast of this beautiful island. We were able to take pictures and stop at interesting sites. We heard details about Crete and its history. I’m sure had we seen the planned itinerary it would also have been spectacular, but we had traveled much of those roads already so we were very happy to be flexible. I think that above all else is what I appreciate - the experience that Panos had enabled him to understand what we would enjoy doing and then pivot/slightly customize the tour. The food we ate was also to die for. Such a great day!!!

This hike was amazing. We ended up going with a very large group, however, went at our own pace. Highly recommend Hiking shoes. Bring snacks. Water fills along the way. Multiple checkpoints and if you finish early enough, time for a meal and swim at the end before boarding the ferry. Our calves are sore today. Its just about all downhill, so can be tough on the knees. It was beautiful and SO glad we did it. Recommend doing it towards the end of your stay in Crete due to muscle soreness and just being tired. Its a 10 mile/15 km hike with little flat. Enjoy!

This tour was amazing! Special thanks to our guide Manos and to our driver who ensured a lovely and safe experience for everyone. Agios Nikolaos is an amazing place that we instantly fell in love with, and Spinalonga is just breathtaking. The operating company was fantastic, a team of professionals who quickly found a solution to reduce our return time in difficult traffic. I highly recommend this tour!

Was a really nice snorkeling adventure. It was a really beautiful location and the staff was so nice. I wasn't expecting to get a snack because I only book a 3 hour adventure but it was a nice surprise. There wasn't a lot of the day I went out but I understand it's hit or miss with that kind of thing. My husband and I had a wonderful time and beautiful pictures from that day.

I have two teenage boys and decided this would be a super fun tour for the three of us. It was by far top two favorite excursions on our cruise. The only downside was I didn’t realize the boys had to be 23 to drive their own quad so they had to ride on the back of mine and the tour guides; however, it turned out to be a blast, and they still had a great time. We loved the stop at the Olive Mill. The owner explained the process of making olive oil and we were able to taste a ton of olive oil and olives. We took the quads off Roading and up into the mountains. We explored a cave which we all thought was pretty cool. We drove along the beaches and stopped for our favorite meal on our trip thus far. The chicken gyros were incredible! The tour guides on this excursion were top-notch. They were super friendly and made the entire day so much fun. I would do this again and also recommend to all my friends..
