Our guide was very knowledgeable and totally into his job- we enjoyed him immensely! He took time to explain everything and made us feel comfortable the entire time - never rushed us and let us take time at each stop. We went thru many narrow roads up and down the mountains and explained every location to us - when it was over we didn’t want it to end

Outstanding Experience

Georgette_T, Feb 2026

Exceptional Service. Knowledgeable guide. Iosef gave us great insights into the Cretan way of life and drove us on winding roads so we could get the closest view possible from our off road vehicle. He brought us to a family run business, where Popi was the perfect hostess. She treated us like family! We tasted different Cretan wines, oils and liquor and even had a pottery lesson on the wheel! The traditional Cretan lunch was delicious! We highly recommend this tour. Nothing better!

Fantastic tour of the Lasithi Plateau

David_H, Oct 2025

George was a faultless guide/driver for the day - very personable and knowledgeable. There were four of us on the tour, and we got to know our fellow travellers. Stunning viewpoints of the coast and the Lasithi Plateau, enjoyable stops in Krasi and at a family-run food and ceramic business with tastings, lots of the promised windmills dotted around the plateau, and the lunch (starters, mains, dessert, water, wine and raki) was really tasty in a lovely location. Couldn’t be better.

What a great ride and history lesson of the island.

Our guide, story teller, driver Joseph was very knowledgeable. We went places that other tours did not dare to go. Lunch was more than we ever expected. Loved the small group. The SUV can only hold 5, there were 4 in our group.

Great experience and favorite tour

Virginia_C, Oct 2024

We had the best time with Josif on the excursion. He really made us feel as family. We met his uncle and grandmother and learned about the Crecian culture. He made sure we were well taken care of each step of the way. I highly recommend taking this tour.
