una gita ricca e appassionante! La nostra guida Irene gentilissima e disponibile ci ha spiegato tutto quello che c'era da sapere sulla mitologia,i villaggi e le tradizioni cretese... Giornata piacevolissima anche se lunga 11 ore di escursioni! Il pick up andata e ritorno in orario! insomma tutto perfetto ve lo consiglio vivamente!!!

Way more stops than we expected, which wasn’t a bad thing! Lots of different activities and things to see and was very well paced. It didn’t feel like we were at a location for too long. Lasithi Plateau was breathtaking and seeing all the small villages really gave you an idea of the lives of local folk. The local cuisine was fantastic and you have plenty of chances to try local honey, wine and olive oil. It’s worth noting the Zeus cave is a very difficult 20 minute walk up a steep path and then lots of steps. It is not for the faint of hearted and you will have sore legs the next day, not recommended if you have heart or breathing problems. Lots to do in the town if you decide not to go, however. It was a fantastic reward for when you finally make it there though. Knossos palace was great, but our group was too large for the guided tour which meant it was difficult to see what was being shown as well as some audio issues during if you got too far away from the speaker.

The tour was good value for money. We weren’t in Crete for that long and this tour meant we got to see a lot in one day. The tour group was much bigger than expected, a double decker tour bus, we wish the group would have been smaller. However our tour guide was very jolly and knowledgeable. It was annoying her having to say everything in English and French - but no fault on her, more so the company for combining everything into one. We do wish Knossos was the first stop of the tour rather than the last. We were very tired by the time we got there and we didn’t pay as much attention as we would have liked. But we are still glad we got to see it.
