Knossos er stedet for det vigtigste og bedre kendte palads i den minoiske civilisation. Ifølge traditionen var det sæde for den legendariske konge Minos. Slottet er også forbundet med spændende legender, såsom myten om labyrinten med Minotauren og historien om Daedalus og Icarus. Webstedet var kontinuerligt beboet fra den neolitiske periode (7000 - 3000 f.Kr.) indtil romertiden. Efter sin delvise ødelæggelse i 1450 f.Kr. blev Knossos afgjort af mykenere fra det græske fastland. Byen blomstrede igen i den hellenistiske periode i 67 f.Kr. Det blev fanget af den romerske Quintus Caecilius Metelus Creticus. Knossos blev opdaget i 1878 af Minos Kalokairinos. Arthur Evans gennemførte systematiske udgravninger på stedet mellem 1900 og 1931, hvilket bragte paladset, en stor del af den minoiske by og kirkegårdene i lyset. Restaureringen af slottet til dets nuværende form blev udført af Arthur Evans.
Historien er meget levende i den gamle by Heraklion, ligesom i de fleste græske byer. Fra den gamle venetianske havn, den 25. august Str. Fører til den gamle bymidte. Den centrale plads, mens den er omgivet af caféer, butikker og restauranter, er domineret af Lions springvand, bygget af Morozini, den venetianske guvernør i 1628. Du vil også se "Eleftherias sq." , Heraklions hovedtorv, hvor det arkæologiske museum står og til højre 'Kyrillou Loukareos Str' fører til Agios Minas-katedralen og Agia Aikaterini-museet. Det arkæologiske museum anses for at være et af de mest berømte museer i hele Europa og er bestemt et besøg værd. Hvis du ønsker det, kan du selv besøge det arkæologiske museum i Heraklion, da det ikke er inkluderet på grund af covid19-protokoller

The visit to Knossos was excellent. The guide was an archeologist, so she provided a lot of information and context to what we were seeing making the visit a lot more interesting.
Knossos is a very complex site. Our guide did a good job of explaining the site but we would suggest going to the Heraklion archeological museum before going to the Knossos site. It is an excellent museum.
Our enthusiastic guide made this visit incredible. While it is possible to rent a car, hassle with park and find this place on you own, I think you can have an enjoyable day. Let someone else drive and park. Most importantly, you'll miss the incredible story of this place. The guide explained the story in an manner that was engaging, fun and informative.
A fantastic place to visit. A lot to see and do if you like your history. Tour guides were amazing and very knowledgeable about all the history and ruins. Does get very busy but not to overcrowded that you don't see everything. Does get very hot and not too much shade so would advise taking a parasol and lots of water. A good souvenir shop and toilets are very well managed and very clean. Staff are very friendly and helpful. A must for anyone who loves history , even if you're not into history still an excellent place to visit. Would definitely recommend.
An UNESCO site that I have always wanted to visit. Coach and transfer was excellent. The coach was full but the seats were suitable for tall adults like myself. Excellent air conditioning made the journey comfortable. Our guide Joanne was excellent and well orgainsied. The palace and museum are busy if you go at the height of the season. Expect queues but it is well worth it. Learnt alot about the Minoans. I would recommend this trip.
This trip was disappointing. We were picked up before 7 am and the pickups of other people were not completed till about 9.30. After a brief pit stop we reached Heraklion at 11 and were told we had 2 hours to view the museum or town. It seemed quite a short time given the length of the tour. The museum was amazing but it was very rushed. We then arrived at Knossos at about 2 after further pit stop. Guide was very wordy and repeated the same things a lot although she was clearly knowledgeable. It was not a great experience. It was hard to deal with the site when you were constantly bombarded with information, not all related to the site….We left about 4 pm and it was almost 8 when we arrived back at our hotel. So we had 13 hours but only 4 in the places we wanted to see. I couldn’t recommend it.
A very well organised trip overall. I didn’t enjoy Heraklion and I regret not visiting the archeological museum. On the other hand Knossos palace was an incredible experience, our guide was so full of knowledge and friendly. It was really interesting and I loved Knossos.
Our tour guide was very professional and very knowledgeable. Unfortunately, the time allowed was limited, and it was difficult for her and us to fully explore/appreciate the sites we were taken to. Nonetheless, a great taster of what Knossos and Heraklion have to offer. We hope to return.
Tour guide at the palace was great. More time on bus 7 hrs than on land 3.5-4 hrs Too many pickup stops and coordinating transfers. Bring your patience
Good overall and our guide was really super nice. There were always latecomers who wasted us a little time. Also the driver was very good.
