It’s a very long day with a roughly 7:30 pick up and 7:30 drop off.
What an amazing and effervescent host. Very bubbly and engaging and even came with her own soundtrack for the day.
We got given these very cool headsets so we could hear her no matter where we were standing during the talks.

A very successful trip to Kronos
Very skilled, friendly, cheerful, and charming guide. They also spoke a word of Dutch, while we had booked an angel stable trip. A plus point. A very skilled driver. He guided us safely through very narrow roads and bends. We made this trip on Sept 7, 2026 with bus number 67

Soula , the queen of Greek myths and storytelling
Unfortunately 25 minutes into our trip we found out that the gates to Zeus’ cave were going to be closed by order of the government due to high heat and possible fires , we were given the option of either carrying on or getting our money back by our guide Soula , I’m so glad we decided to carry on as Soula added extra stops and made the experience one of the best we’ve ever had , she was informative and funny and engaging and really looked after us and our 7 year old granddaughter Florence , what a guide she is , unflappable and a joy to listen to her incredible storytelling , the trip was fantastic and we can’t rate her highly enough , our driver Nicos was also a real professional, an incredibly smooth ride through some tiny little villages , Thankyou Soula and Nicos for a fantastic experience x

Very worthwhile and a great value!
This was a great way to get a feel for the area given we only had a couple of days in Heraklion. Our guide Soula was fantastic and really made the sights come to life. The Cave of Zeus has beautiful stalactite and stalagmite formations, and Soula’s telling of the mythology behind it made it more meaningful. Knossos is, of course, the highlight of any visit to Heraklion. The information Soula gave us in advance and during the guided tour added to the experience.
Coming from downtown it took about an hour to pick up all the rest of the visitors from other hotels, but they put us in a minibus directly back downtown at the end, which we greatly appreciated.

100% recommended
Amazing experience!! Our trip was on the Friday the 31st July and it was a fantastic day. Our tour guide, lovely lady with red hair (apologies I forgot her name) was phenomenal, very experienced and knowledgeable. She kept looking after all of us in such a lovely way. Big shout out to our driver George, very skilled driving up the hills and narrow roads.
The whole day is full of amazing places to see and visit! Very worthy!!

A really good way to see lots of the Cretan sights in one go
A very good way to see a good few historical Cretan sights in one day. Had a really good time, we were picked up directly from our hotel and dropped off again, our guide, Roula, was so knowledgable, very kind and easy to talk to. There were lots of other families/couples on the bus and she made the experience accessible for everyone. All the different places we got to see were brilliant. The experience was around 12 hours long with a stop for lunch. Thank you Roula!

Beautiful nature and amazing Knossos
The Lassithi Plateau has beautiful nature, blooming fields, windmills, ancient plane trees, the eco-village is interesting, and in Knossos, we had a wonderfully detailed tour.

A wonderful exploration of Crete, including lesser known gems!
A great day of exploration! A lot was packed into the day, and even though we did not have the chance to visit the cave as it was under restoration, we were all contacted in advance to ask if we wanted to book another day or be refunded if that part of the trip was important, but we opted to still go. That way, I feel that the trip was much more evenly spaced out. We still got a great story about Zeus and Greek Gods on the trip up the mountains, and the views/places we saw up the Lasthiti Plateau with the windmills were gorgeous! The small village Krasi where the Plane Tree is was very lovely too, as was the Eco Park where we bought one of the unique pots made in their very own pottery studio. The Olive Oil Farm was great too, and their buffet does some amazing chips cooked in the oil they sell. We even got to visit a little known monastery which was very quaint and calm.
The highlight was certainly Knossos Palace and the surrounding ruins. It's in a beautiful spot, plenty of shaded areas for hot days, and peacocks everywhere. It's quite fascinating to learn how it was found, what was done to restore it, and if you're really keen to see the original alfresco sections, they are in the Archaeological Museum in Heraklion due to weather risks, as it's all open air.
From memory, I believe our guide was Rula, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Our driver George even drove us all the way back to our resort in Sisi, which can be a pain for the bigger coaches. Just all in all, it was a great day, and for us Brits who burn easily, I would recommending taking plenty of water, a hat, and decent walking shoes, otherwise you'll be in a spot of bother.

Great, absolutely recommendable.
I am thrilled. The tour guide Irini was top-notch. I have never received so much interesting input on a tour; the woman does her job with absolute passion. Aside from this, it was a great value for money. I would like to give 8 stars if available. And I immediately booked the next tour with the organizer.
