Privé retourtransfer van Chania naar Samaria Gorge Park
Beschrijving
Een waar wonder dat elke natuurliefhebber moet meemaken. De Samariakloof is de langste kloof van Europa, met een lengte van 16 km, waardoor u zeldzame structuren en soorten van de Kretenzische flora en fauna kunt ontmoeten, zoals de unieke geitensoort Kri-Kri die alleen op Kreta te vinden is. Via een prachtige route tussen kleine traditionele bergdorpjes bereik je Xyloskalo op het plateau van Omalos, de noordelijke ingang van de kloof op een hoogte van 1250 m. Terwijl je blijft lopen, passeer je vanaf de "Sideroportes" (ijzeren deuren) het smalste punt van Samaria, eindigend aan de oevers van de Libische Zee in Agia Roumeli waar je zeker kunt rusten, eten en zwemmen. Het is precies wat je nodig hebt! Afgezien hiervan zijn er tijdens uw wandeling veel interessante historische punten zoals de tempel van Apollo, waardoor u een geweldige combinatie van natuur en Griekse geschiedenis krijgt.

This tour was executed exactly as advertised. Nikos and his team were on time, friendly, helpful, and full of useful information. The level of communication pre-tour was excellent. The hike is stunning, even if you’re accustomed to beautiful mountain hikes in your home country. As all the reviews say, the hike is an 8-mile descent with another 2-mile flat paved walk to the beach. The trail is very well maintained with several water refills. You don’t get winded or dehydrate like you do hiking at altitude, but it is hard on your knees and calves. Plan on a full day of recovery (relaxing on a beach). After the hike you can swim and grab a bite at one of several restaurants in Agia Roumeli. Then catch a ferry (5:30 p.m. to Sfakion if that’s where you’re getting picked up) and then it’s a healthy drive back to Chania. It’s a long day but well worth it. You have to buy your entrance ticket to the national park and your ferry ticket ahead of time and separately. Keep track of your national park ticket because they check it at the end of the trail (you show your e-ticket and get a small printed one at the trailhead, which you have to present at the end). Samaria Gorge is a unique place. Glad I didn’t miss it.
Quick response, very professional, reliable, and precise team! Very responsive communication, very friendly team! Choose with your eyes closed.
Nikos and his drivers are just amazing. We did a number of trips with them - 3 x airport transfers, Samariá Gorge and Sfakia pick up, full day trip to Heraklion/Knossos Palace. Such a warm welcoming team, always on time, spotless vehicles, even treats and gifts for longer journeys and Nikos kept us fully entertained for the 4+ hours we were with him heading to Knossos and back! What a real gem this company was to find. Thanks so much. Don’t hesitate to book - was lovely being in such safe welcoming hands and learning about this wonderful island.
Dear Caroline E, Thank you so much for your kind words and for writing about your experience. We are glad that you have enjoyed our services. We hope to see you again. All the best from Crete! Warm regards, NIKOS TOURS
Nikos team did a great job. Picked us up from our hotel in the morning on time and dropped us off at the Gorge’s starting point. Then after the hike - we hopped on the ferry and our driver was waiting for us at the ferry drop off point. Having a private car definitely simplified the hike for us. Didn’t have to wait for any other groups, worry about parking or the long drive, and our car took us right back to our Hotel. Would definitely recommend Nikos’ team for anyone looking to do the Samaria Gorge. Van was comfortable too

Very reliable, friendly and provided los of interesting information along the way. Highly recommend!
Hospitable and professional—an overall fantastic experience! Driver went out of his way to ensure my family had the right ferry tickets, location of pickup, etc. Provided history and local insight to history of Crete.
Driver was fantastic and this was a very easy way to get to Samaria’s Gorge and back from Chania. Well worth it!
The trip was amazing in all respects. The car transfer was comfortable, prompt, and we felt extremely safe. The Gorge is amazing. It’s a long day, but totally worth it for the incredible views. Nikos was immediately visible at the ferry pick up, and he provided so much information for the rest of our trip. All of his recommendations have been perfect for us and really improved our trip and experience of Greek food!
Dear Culture, Thank you so much for your kind words and for writing about your experience. We are glad that you have enjoyed our services. We hope to see you again. All the best from Crete! Warm regards, NIKOS TOURS
Fantastic experience. Our driver arrived on time and was extremely professional and nice. We arrived right as the gorge opened and avoided the buses and crowds. We were picked up after the hike in Sfakia (note: admission to the park and ferry tickets are not included - make sure you book ferry tickets) and promptly returned to our Airbnb.
It was great to start the hike before all the other tour groups and before it got too hot. The driver was very safe and the vehicle was very comfortable. The hike was fantastic and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Would definitely recommend!
