Overview

Crete is known for its beautiful scenery, beaches, and traditional villages–but it can be tricky to find off-the-beaten-path areas without local knowledge. With this tour, join a private guide on an adventure to the south coast of Crete. Along the way, find traces of an ancient city, take a dip in “healing waters”, visit a small fishing village, and go on a scenic hike too. Conveniently, the tour also includes a delicious lunch, alcoholic drinks, and private transportation.
