the tour included all i expected from such a tour. it was well organised and the guides were overwhelmingly heart-warming and charming.
for those who may think about booking: dont expect a silent tour de luxe. you get an adventure and your backbone may hurt a little afterwards. :D

Superb tour, don’t hesitate just book. Best tour ever. Tour guides make this tour, a packed day with lots of driving and stopping at various places. Topped off with the best lunch we’ve had all holiday.

We had a great day traveling in our 4x4 around Crete. It was a great way to visit the island.
After our little delay finding the meeting spot, we were able to enjoy ourselves. We were a little frustrated because we couldn’t locate the spot where we were supposed to have met. Luckily, after speaking with a few people, we got to it.
The other important thing that wasn’t clearly stated was that you must be able to drive a manual car. Only 2 out of 6 of us knew how.

There were 60 people in our tour. You are first promised to drive yourself but you may not. And you need to share with some other families. Off-road part is not that long. But People are friendly and the food is good
Response from Host, Sep 2023
Dear Arash, thank you for participating in our tour. When you book our tour you must read that the group can be till 60 persons which for most of the people is fun and second, if you want a jeep for yourself - exclusive you have the option by paying an extra fee. You may not drive yourself if you dont have a valid driver's license with you. Again, thank you for participating in 4x4 tour.

The tour is amazing and alot of fun. Enjoyed the views, staff was awesome and helpful at all times. Each of the stops were intresting, fun and I cannot say enough about the views, while driving through the mountains and coastline. The caves, the beach and the stop for lunch (delicious) were also amazing as well. I did this tour during one of my stops, while on a Norweign cruise

My partner picked this tour for us during our time in Crete and we both had the best time! We booked through Viator, late the night before and everything went so smoothly. Pick up/drop off from our hotel was extremely convenient. John was our English speaking tour guide and he was wonderful. Very friendly, funny, informative and helpful with other local recommendations. The tour had such a great variety of activities and things to see. Our favourite part was the cave and the swim and of course, driving off road. It was a great way to see the island in more of an authentic way. Highly recommend 👌🏼

Our guide Yiannis was great, we had a brilliant time and would highly recommend. We went as a group of 10 lads but was fun for anyone

The staff were amazing. We had such a good time. Driving up the mountains, seeing caves, tasting olive oil and learning about the history was amazing.

A la recherche de sensations fortes, nous avons été agréablement surpris par cette activité riche en sensations.
Nous mettons l’accent sur le positif comme le circuit hors piste, le très bon traducteur en français et le déjeuner. Mais il est important de souligner que pour n’être que deux dans un 4x4 on vous demande de payer 60€ en plus de ce que vous avez déjà réglé. Pareil pour la fin de la journée qui semblait désorganisée…

Leuke reisleiding! Mooie vergezichten, leuke onderbrekingen (olijfproducent, koffie, lunch, grot). Wij hebben alleen bezoek klooster gemist (kwam misschien doordat het Maria-HEmelvaart was). Leuke dag gehad!!
