Great day

Very hot but enjoyable day in comfort. Angie was very considerate and changed around the itinerary to allow us to explore everything in the heatwave. Very flexible and really good communication from start to finish. Some great discussions throughout the day that really helped us get to know the island, history and culture. Thank you Angie :-)

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!

Best Chania tour!

Our tour guide was Angie. She was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly knowledgable about Greek history, culture geography, and pretty much anything that we ever asked. She took us to cool out-of-the-way places and it was the best trip we had ever had. Just a lovely private tour with her! Use Angie and you will never be disappointed.

Large family group - Great Tour!!

This tour was the best! Angie is so easy to get along with, we all had a blast riding along with her and she's a fabulous tour guide. We were a party of 9, 4 adults and 5 kids ages 18, 16, 16, 13, and 10. All of the stops were interesting and worthwhile, I would love to go back and spend more time in all of them. The Gorge - very cold but worth trying it. A long walk down but not too tough, i did it in birkenstocks and was fine. Calypso Beach - so beautiful and clear, a very beautiful spot. We rented snorkels and had a great time, but if i went back i'd probably bring a little float for the kids because its more of a swimming hole than a beach. Spili - the most charming little mountain town. We loved lunch and shopped around a little bit and definitely could've spent even more time there. There really was never a dull moment on this tour!
