Chania: Elafonisi & Falasarna privat tur m/olivenoliesmagning

Christine is an absolutely exceptional guide and Thanos our driver was very kind, attentive and safe! All the details of the entire tour were thoughtfully curated and it was so nice to be in such great hands. We had a group of 15 and we didn't have to worry about anything. The atmosphere in the bus was perfect for the hot weather and the cold waters when we got back from our tours was such a nice touch! Also, a big differentiator from all the other tour groups was the yummy snack box provided! We will forever remember the beauty of Crete because of this amazing company. Thank you!

Delightful husband and wife team Christine and Thanos strive to make sure you thoroughly enjoy your experience and want for nothing. It felt like a visit with family. They provided an honest peek at life on Crete and were happy to share all the details. Falasarna Beach spoke to us with its crystal clear blue water, gentle wave action, beachside amenities, and soft sand. We loved it so much we chose to stay there until the last possible moment before needing to embark for home. This is the benefit of a private tour. You can shape it and tailor-it to you and your family in the moment. We appreciated this very much. The drop off and pickup allowed us to skip the walk from the parking lots and back which equaled more time doing what we wanted to do. I think it’s also important to mention that Thanos is a careful driver. Since the roads are often our most dangerous adventure wherever we happen to be, I was thankful for this small but important detail. I recommend booking directly with them and starting a text string for instant and timely communication.

This was an absolute AMAZING tour - definitely book it! Christine and Thannos were so kind, knowledgeable and made our tour a wonderful experience. The van was comfortable, cool air, they showed us videos along with the information. They had water, drinks, snacks, umbrellas, beach mats, a small lunch, and thought of everything to make our trip memorable and enjoyable. Thank you so much Christine! Johnson family, US. Ευχαριστώ πολύ !

This was the best tour! Highly recommended. Christine and Thanos were amazing hosts and tour guides. We learned so much about the island and they are just good, kind, funny people to be around! We enjoyed every minute! They took care of everything and were so accommodating and helpful.

Highly recommended! We really enjoyed our beach and olive oil tasting tour. It was a well organised, personalised and informative tour. Our guide Christine was amazing. She was so passionate and knowledgeable on Creten culture, a great communicator & very attentive. Nick was a great driver, we felt really relaxed and safe, especially on some of the narrow winding roads.

The most amazing day spent in Chania. Not only did we get to see 3 of the most beautiful and popular locations of the east side of Crete but we also learned about Crete’s history and heritage. My husband, daughter and I chose the private tour and it was so comfortable. They picked us up from the hotel and dropped us back at our hotel which was really convenient for us traveling with a child. The lunch included was delicious and perfect. The tour vehicle is really clean and well organized. There’s a display screen in the van to see beautiful pictures of Crete and learn more about the island during the drive. The hosts were prepared with Wi-Fi in the van, charging cords, snacks, drinks, and everything we needed for the beach. Thank God they had beach umbrellas for us because the beaches there are so popular that rental umbrellas get sold out fast even in the morning. The hosts were really kind and accommodating. They stopped at beautiful spots so we could take pictures. I would highly recommend booking with them. No matter how many locations you decide to see, you’ll have a comfortable and fulfilling experience.

We were so thrilled with the tour provided by Christine and Thanos! Not only did we learn a lot, but it also allowed us to see much more of the western side of Crete than we would have on our own. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel, and they were very punctual. The tour company provided mats, umbrellas, a meal, and drinks for our trip. (They are not allowed to drive to the beach, so you do set them up yourself and there is a bit of a walk). We were so grateful for the cold drinks throughout the warm day. I truly felt that they thought of everything to make the excursion as convenient and easy as possible. At Elafonisi beach, our first stop, we spent the whole time in the water. However, next time, at Falasarna, I would plan to pay the extra money to purchase a sunbed at the beach since it was quite hot in the afternoon. At Falsarna, other beachgoers had quite a long walk or had to wait for a trolley, but the tour company was allowed to drive down to pick us up, which was a huge plus. We also enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere of the olive oil tasting. I definitely recommend a tour with this company, especially with Christine and Thanos! It was a great day.

We had an amazing experience on this tour! Christine provided us with lots of interesting information about Cretan culture, history, and the landscape. The drive through the mountains was gorgeous, and Costas, the driver, was careful and competent. We chose to spend most of our time at Elafonissi Beach because it was perfect for the kids in our group (3 10 year olds) and it was a once-in-lifetime beach, no doubt! The olive oil tour and tasting was also cool. Christine also made some helpful recommendations for restaurants and for a boat tour to Balos. She even gave the moms in the group a gift! Such a special experience!

Everything was great. Christine speaks very good German. New vehicle. Good driver. Umbrellas, Mats, Getr.incl.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Sea by Bus Crete tours! Our guide, Christine, was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights into Cretan history and culture throughout the day. She was kind, courteous, and made sure we were comfortable throughout the day, creating an unforgettable experience for us. We visited some of Western Crete’s most iconic sites, including the stunning Elafonisi and Falassarna beaches, with plenty of time to explore and enjoy. Our driver, Thanos, was excellent as well — keeping us safe and on schedule while allowing us to fully experience everything on the itinerary. We truly had a day to remember and would highly recommend Sea by Bus Crete tours to anyone visiting the island!
