See another side of Crete

Great port excursion with our 3 teen boys to see another part of Crete. Loved the olive oil factory and it’s shop and the church cave was amazing. Delicious homemade lunch at a country inn.

Great Tour but we missed out transport from the port due to a late docking

Alston_P, Jun 2025

The quad safari tour was awesome. I was traveling with my wife and two other couples, and we had a blast. Alex, our guide, was very friendly, patient, respectful, pleasant and always checked on us throughout the entire ride. My only negative comment would be that if you are arriving on a cruise ship, please have a back up transportation arrangement. Our cruise ship was supposed to dock at 7:00am but was not cleared to dock until 7:30am. The 30 minute delayed caused us to miss our transport that was provided by the Quad Safari Tour company. I contacted them via message informing them of the situation and asked if the driver could wait 15 minutes so that we could disembark the ship but they stated that he could not and that they had other clients that needed to be picked up and transported to their location. Then, they provided me their address and suggested that I take a taxi to their location to go on the tour. Not exactly the kind of customer service I was expecting. As a result, we had to make our own arrangements from the port to their location which costs us 90euros. When we arrived, I spoke to two of the staff members and they repeated the same thing that they had other clients to pick up and waiting 15 minutes for us would cause everyone to be late for the 9:00am tour. That is interesting since the driver had already left, and we later found out that he was at the wrong pickup location. Not only that but we arrived before the driver who couldn't wait for us.

Perhaps a different crowd, another day

A couple, however we are both adventure seekers and prefer to ride separately. Not an option apparently (even after paying full price for 2 persons, ~$198). Even so, definitely not the WILD Adventure we hoped for. Speed based on weakest link. Spill early in our adventure so we moved at a Turtles paste. I was hoping for a dish using lamb shanks, rack of lamb, or even some beef cheeks, or goat. Anything but chicken! No alternative option for lunch, chicken only. Taste Not Bad, but not desired after a week of chicken souvlaki and kebabs. No Cave, No Horseback Riding, and No Beach Stops. Review based on my personal experience/preference. Others enjoyed with no issue. Beautiful Scenic Views along the Journey.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We would like to clarify a few important points for future guests. This experience is a group quad safari, where vehicles are shared unless a solo option is selected in advance. The tour is designed to accommodate all participants, with safety as our top priority, which may affect the pace depending on the group. Our itinerary includes multiple stops such as the cave, beach, and other locations. However, timing may vary during the day depending on group pace and operational conditions. In this particular case, some adjustments were made to ensure a smooth and safe experience for all participants. Regarding lunch, we offer a traditional Cretan meal as part of the experience, rather than a fixed restaurant-style menu. We always aim to be flexible and accommodate our guests’ needs whenever possible, and we regret that your expectations did not fully match the nature of the tour. We are glad you enjoyed the scenic views and the quad riding experience, which are key highlights of this activity. We appreciate your feedback and will continue improving our experience for future guests.

Absolutely loved it!

From the time we were picked up till we returned in the late afternoon, we were treated like special guests. Our guide was great, very friendly and always made sure we’re not only having fun but also being kept safe. We rode all over, went to a monastery, rode to the top of the mountain, had a terrific lunch, and got to even pet some horses. It was a truly fun, fun day!
