Fra Heraklion: Heldags busstur til Chania by, Kournas sø og Rethymno by
Beskrivelse
Denne udflugt bringer os til Vestkreta og vores første stop i Chania, den mest strålende by på Kreta. Det var en vigtig minoisk by og ”mor til de kretiske byer” ifølge gamle forfattere. Byen er opdelt i den gamle by med den smukke havn og den nye by ud over dens venetianske befæstninger.

Rejseplan
Denne udflugt bringer os til Vestkreta og vores første stop i Chania, den mest henrivende by på Kreta. Det var en vigtig minoisk by og "de kretensiske byers moder", ifølge gamle forfattere. Byen er delt i den gamle by, med den smukke havn og den nye by, ud over dens venetianske fæstningsværker. Den Gamle By er en af de smukkeste byer i Middelhavet og kaldes "Østens Venedig". Vi kan beundre prøver af alle de civilisationer, der er passeret herfra: arkæologiske minoiske steder, tyrkiske minareter og moskeer, muslimske kvarterer, venetianske fæstninger, værfter, springvand, pladser, buer, palæer, Loggia og Chanias fyrtårn, Chania 731 32.
Går vi tilbage, stopper vi i Rethimnon, den tredjestørste by på Kreta, hvor monumenter fra den arkæologiske, osmanniske og venetianske epoke eksisterer side om side, på en yderst interessant måde. Gå en tur i gyderne i den gamle bydel, besøg de tyrkiske minareter som Neratze-moskeen og de venetianske fæstninger eller nyd bare din kaffe i den storslåede havn.
Når vi forlader denne ekstraordinære by, ankommer vi til den maleriske Kournas-sø, et smukt habitat med naturligt ferskvand, enestående på Kreta. Frodigt grønt, stejle hulrum mellem bakker, sjældne arter af fisk og fugle, som ål, hedehøner og tofarvede skildpadder, gør Kournas til det ideelle sted at nyde en svømmetur før vores frokost eller en gåtur tidligt på eftermiddagen. Hele området Kournas er beskyttet under Natura 2000, da det har været et udpeget vådområde.

Should have just done chania and lake. Three places took too long as did the drop off back to Heraklion
Hello thank you for the informations thats helpfull
Ignore the tour times - states on here that you receive 2 hours at Rethyno, this is a bare faced lie. I brought this up with the guide who stated it was never advertised as this and did not want to see the listing showing otherwise. Only reason we picked this tour is due to the extra time at this location but it was all just a lie. Would not recommend this company for others. Air con broken on bus, tour guide speaking constantly so unable to sleep/relax on the bus.
Hello thank you for the informations thats helpfull
A nice excursion with a bilingual guide (English: French) who shared his passion for his country with us. The comments were interesting, but since they were repeated in both languages, it felt a bit long... Chania and Rethymnon are interesting; the lake is not essential at all except for dining by the water. I would have clearly preferred to have more time in Rethymnon (one hour is insufficient). Overall, a beautiful day.
thank you for the review
An easy way to visit Thanks and Refugee from Irakio. A long day with ample time to visit both cities. Comfortable bus, knowledgeable tour leader, and great sites
thank you for the review
Very well organized and enjoyable despite a large number of participants. Highly recommended.
thank you for the review
The guide was great! Just maybe instead of showing us the way to see the attractions, she could have accompanied those who wanted and then left some free time!
thank you for the review
The tour was a pleasure from start -720am pickup -to 8pm finish.The 3 stops were all worth seeing with the only change being longer in each place would have been nicer but due to the length of the day this was not possible The tour guide was a friendly and informative lady who made the day a real pleasure .Thank you for such a lovely tour!
Thank you for the review
It was amazing how they managed to pack so much into one day. Crete is so big, so to be able to see these wonderful places on a day trip was brilliant. I would have to say that it's a very long day, it was about 14 hours from start to finish but I suppose it depends on how far away you are. It was definitely worth it though. Thanks very much.
Thank you for the review
Bus was old and uncomfortable. Speakers poor , my wife had to sit behind a broken seat. Guides response was to change seats but there were no spare for two people. The driver drove very fast
Pros: Unmissable places to visit to discover the north of Crete.The guide "Olga" very friendly and professional Cons:Departure from the hotel at 7.30am and arrival in Chania at 11.30am...A very long bus ride that can seem endless.Running tours , timed and shortened because of the “latecomers”.
thank you for the review
