This was a long tour but good, but not great. I think it just depends on your tour guide really. It was hard to hear at times but this place is a must.

Engaging, safe, interesting, and wonderful guide experience with Angie from Your Cretan Local
Going on a tour to Europe alone to a country I haven't been to, given my past experiences, required a careful selection of whom to find for a guide to take me through the meaningful sites. I'm so glad I found Angie, especially since I was traveling solo to a place I was unfamiliar with and did not know any safe way to travel on my own. Angie loved to share her little desserts and talked about her life as a guide, and allowed me to know beyond what we could read online or in textbooks. While she isn't a licensed expert guide, she knows the area and industry well enough to share unique insights, local news, her take on the situation of Greece, and a local take on Crete. However, for in-depth real historic archaeological sites where you need an expert guide to walk you through, just ask Angie, and she can connect you with wonderful local expert guides who could tailor their detailed explanations of the sites according to your pace and time you have. I ran out of time, but I wish I had an extra hour at the Heraklion Archaeological Museum (well, I spent too much time at Knossos of course, admiring the details of the architecture and asking the expert guide so many questions). This experience with Angie and the expert guide really helped me segway into my ensuing trip with tour operator of mainland Greek sites. I feel like the one-day trip was not enough on Crete because I only covered half of the island, and not even some of the important sites (had to miss out on them). Anyway, the speculation of Atlantis being connected with the Minoan culture (vaguely remembered was someting to do with maritime commerce) was interesting too!

So worth it!
This is your one stop shop to visit wonderful highlights of the island and Aggi was beyond amazing. She helped us plan the rest of our days here and was so helpful with all the spots for today’s tour and all the highlights for the rest of our days in Crete. I would 10000% recommend. We had a teenager and a 9 year old and all the tour was just good for us all.
Our family usually avoids any long trip but this did not feel like a full day and that is saying a lot for us.
Just book it.

Rising above the best for a private day tour in the highlands around Heraklion
Tourism is a very competitive industry in Crete, so we did the research and succeeded in finding a guide among the best for a private day tour in the highlands around Heraklion. Angie is a very knowledgable and pleasant guide and she exceeded our expectations in every way.

Amazing day driving around Crete
The guided tour was exceptional. The guide drives you around Crete in a comfortable car, has snacks and water at hand and tells you about some of the most interesting history facts I heard about Crete and its ancient culture. I visited the island three times before, so I know a little bit myself, but I was still very impressed with some of the things I learned that day. We also tasted some of the best honey and olive oil Crete has to offer. We had a blast!

Amazing experience!
Our day trip to Knossos Palace and the Cave of Zeus with Angie was absolutely fantastic! She was brilliant - knowledgeable, well-organised and made the day really special for us. The day was completely tailored to our needs and nothing was too much trouble. We were provided with snacks and water throughout the day too! We learnt so much about the island, its history and culture whilst experiencing spectacular views. Cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Well worth the money. Thank you so much again for such a wonderful experience.

Superb and informative history day.
A really warm welcome from Agge the minute she picked us up from the hotel. Her knowledge and enthusiasm for history was infectious. Travelling between sights she filled us with local knowledge. The lunch stop was traditional and fantastic. She pitched the day for every member of the family. Thank you Agge. 🤩

Knossos Palace - Highly Recommend!
We had the most amazing time on our tour of Knossos Palace and were able to move independently throughout with our “tablet map”! Following Knossos Palace, we were able to visit Heraklion Museum which held a majority of artifacts found at Knossos Palace, making it a perfect tour combination. Throughout our tour, Aggeliki gave amazing voice overs around the history and mythology of the area - her English is flawless! Can only recommend this tour, it was very professional, efficient, and tailored to exactly what we wanted!
