We loved our two day tour with Spirous! He was great with our two kids. He was very knowledgeable about the island, has lots of fun facts, and showed us some amazing sites! Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a real pleasure spending two days with your family. We're so happy the kids enjoyed the adventure too! 😊 Thank you for trusting us to show you around Crete, and we hope to see you all again someday! 🇬🇷❤️
We had an amazing two...
We had an amazing two days, and enjoyed visiting various parts of Crete. The site visits were perfectly picked and timed and met our expectations. Most important to note that Spyros our friendly guide and driver made it even more enjoyable and by the end of the two days we felt like family. He made sure that we were having a good time and that we understood and experienced the real Cretan lifestyle, he took us to his native village, his summer house, walked through his vegetable garden, we tasted various homemade drinks at his house and he took us to pick strawberries from a friend’s strawberry fields.
I highly recommend this tour and specifically with Spyros as the guide.

We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring Crete with Spyros over your two-day tour.

We’re so glad these moments made you feel like family, as this is exactly the spirit of Crete we love to share. Your recommendation is greatly appreciated, and we’d be happy to welcome you back anytime for more authentic experiences!
Amazing tour - highly recommend!
This tour was absolutely incredible, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! As a first-time visitor to Crete with only a few days to explore, this tour was everything I hoped for and more. It perfectly combined the island's must-see attractions, historical highlights, and hidden gems into an unforgettable experience.
Our guide, Ed, was exceptional. Born and raised in Crete, he is a fountain of knowledge about the island's history, culture, cuisine, and natural beauty. He answered every question with genuine enthusiasm and provided fascinating insights about everything we saw. Not only was Ed incredibly knowledgeable, but he was also friendly, entertaining, and had a great sense of humour, making the entire experience both informative and fun.
The itinerary was thoughtfully planned and diverse. We visited Knossos Palace, where we wandered through the fascinating ruins at our own pace, and an olive oil factory, where Ed carefully explained the production process and we were able to sample some fresh olive oil. At a local ceramics workshop, we saw artisans creating and painting beautiful handcrafted pieces, with no pressure to buy. Along the way, we stopped to photograph stunning views, the windmills of Lassithi Plateau, a 2400-year old plane tree and even goats with traditional bells that sounded like wind chimes. The day also included visits to traditional villages, where we met locals and sampled delicious coffee, raki, and wine. Ed's driving was excellent, safely navigating the winding mountain roads with ease.
The following day, we explored the Venetian harbour towns of Chania and Rethymno, which were absolutely stunning. Strolling through the narrow, picturesque alleys felt like stepping back in time, with opportunities to shop, photograph beautiful centuries-old churches, fortresses, and other historical buildings, and soak in the Mediterranean's breathtaking views. The tour was perfectly paced—never rushed—and there was ample time to enjoy every stop.
This was my first private/small group tour, and it far exceeded my expectations. Ed’s warm hospitality, flexibility, and attention to detail made the trip truly special. He tailored the experience to suit my interests, giving me options throughout the day and ensuring I got the most out of every moment. I can't wait to return to Crete and book another tour with Tours in Heraklion. If you're looking for an authentic and enriching experience that immerses you in local culture, look no further. This tour deserves more than five stars! Thank you, Ed, for making my trip to Crete so memorable.

This was the best tour of our entire Greece 13 days trip!
We loved Crete because of Tours in Heraklion tour agency and our driver guide Spyros.
Spyros was a very personable,knowledgeable,informative and kind,with a lovely sense of humour (be ready to laugh all day long).
In the first day, we visited an olive oil press,(learned a lot about the olive oil) stopped at the 2400 years old massive Plane tree, explored the old windmills( the view is spectacular view from there) Lasithi Plateau villages, stopped to pick and eat fresh strawberrys, combined with a cold glass of Cretan white wine and Raki (a lot of fun).
Spyros bought for us a Greek yoghurt and honey, had Greek coffee in a traditional caffe and of course we stopped to taste some local fresh food in family tavern( goat meat and green beans were soooo delicious)
Our last stop was at the Palace of Knossos and we really loved that.
Second day, we visited Rethymno and Chania towns, both were amazing and very well preserved old Venetian and Ottoman architecture.
Definitely we'll come back to explore more of this fabulous island and we highly recommend this tour to everyone.
Thank you for this wonderful experience guys!
Keep going this amazing hospitality.
