An enjoyable exclusive experience with a local that has behind-the-scenes knowledge and relationships.
Goldie was very knowledgeable and communicated very well about the city, history and local experiences. Goldie was a gem who took us to hidden corners of Chania. Goldie finished it off with a local lunch that really brought us together. six stars for Goldie!!!
If you want to learn about Chani’s history and see the places the locals visit this is the perfect you’re. golf’s our tour guide was very knowledgeable of the area and had a great personality which made the tour even more special
Our tour guide Goldy was absolutely wonderful. Her knowledge of the history of old town Chania was very interesting. She took us in out of the way streets that not all tourists get to see. The tapas snacks at the end of the tour were a delicious treat.
Our guide was Goldy and she was an absolute delight! Not only did she inform us about many topics but she seemed more like a friend than a guide. A must for future travelers!!!
This was a wonderful experience. Our guide, Goldy, was knowledgeable and passionate about the city. We learned so much walking through the streets that we wouldn’t have otherwise learned. Goldy was kind and lovely, and we ended with some great Cretan food at a spot locals love. Highly recommend doing this during your visit to Chania!
Goldie, our guide, was excellent. She was professional, very knowledgeable, and personable. Prior to the tour we had walked around the Old Town, but Goldie brought the area to life, and took us to interesting and non-touristy areas. My spouse and I feel the benefits far outweighed the cost, and we wholeheartedly recommend the tour.
Fantastic morning. Manos was excellent. His knowledge and the way he delivered the information was great. As well as goodtalker he was also a good listener. We learnt so much and more than we anticipated. Would definitely reccommend.
Had a great morning/ afternoon with Maria, who was very knowledgeable and provided an enjoyable insight into the old city and local culture.
We have been to Chania a couple times on our own and wandered around but this tour takes you to some hidden gem you were likely not aware existed. The guide we had made it even more amazing with the history and local lore. She was fantastic and we had the best time.
