Tour de dia inteiro de Balos e Gramvousa a partir de Chania com bilhete de barco

Amazing experience! ​We booked the Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa tour and had a wonderful time! The places we visited were absolutely breathtaking. A special thanks to our tour guide — she was incredibly kind, helpful, and made the whole trip even more enjoyable. Everything was well-organized from start to finish. Highly recommended!

I visited Balos with pleasure and this magical site lives up to its reputation So as not to do like everyone who climbs to the parking lot (paying after having already paid a right of way of one euro per person at the start) by car, or in a full power Quad, I walked the 7 kilometers of track on foot, which allows to fully enjoy the landscape... Taking all his time You will not be disappointed even if on arrival you do not escape the crowds, sunbeds and umbrellas for hire... But the beach is wide enough not to feel oppressed Better than Elafonissi, because more isolated (allow half an hour of descent by a sloped path to the beach once the car is parked in the parking lot)

Great day at Balos beach and Gramvousa island. Pickup, boat ride and time to stay at these beautiful places was great. My only criticism was the food on the boat was mediocre at best. Still, well worth it for this tour!

Overall, it was a pleasant trip. Balos Beach was absolutely beautiful. Stunning crystal-clear water, I thoroughly enjoyed swimming there. Before travelling, I was mindful of some of the previous reviews, but having now experienced it myself, I found everything to be manageable. Our tour guide, Carolina, was informative, polite, and well-organised. The food on the ferry was also much better than expected, with plenty of good options, and I was able to secure a comfortable seat, which was ideal. It is worth noting that the tour is combined with 10–20 other groups, meaning that the ferry carries approximately 800–1,000 people, all of whom will be sharing the beach and island at the same time. For a more relaxed experience, I would recommend either travelling outside the peak season or considering a smaller boat tour.

It is so beautiful, clear water and the beach was so nice My grandsons had a wonderful time, you still more time, which wasn't enough for us

We were picked-up up from a point close to our hotel. The bus was on time and the staff was friendly. We bought a tasty lunch on board and drinks at a good price. The beaches were really beautiful, overall a great day!

Took my family to Crete in August of 2025 and obviously we wanted to see the highly coveted Balos beach and Gramvoussa Island that we booked through Trip Advisor. Overall experience 3-star activity - because of the boat and the ridiculous amount of people they pack into that boat. Also, lots of walking on tretrous terrain going up and down, on rocky terrain… all worth it because the beaches are gorgeous but something to consider if you have limited motility. But can’t beat the price! And the good thing is that they will offer pick up in Chania (we had to drive 65min from Rethymno and got picked up at a gas station). Great bus, clean, AC… then you get to the boat… and FIGHT for seats! We sat on the floor from Balos to Gramvoussa (20min) not the end of the world but not ideal with young kids. Another strong point is that the cafeteria on the boat is really good and very reasonably priced. We had breakfast with coffees and croissants and for lunch we had brought sandwiches thinking we wouldn't find anything but food was really good and snacks too, and available all the time you’re on the boat. They also sell alcoholic beverages. The beaches are beautiful- bring swimming shoes because even in the water it’s rocky and slippery. Also they sell drinks and food at Balos but it’s very expensive and it’s on the other side of the beach. Also you can rent an umbrella on the boat for a very decent 7€ for the day. Overall beautiful scenery but the amount of people on the boat + distance to walk from boat to beach, made it difficult to enjoy easily and fully.

Very attentive, responsive, available. Great Service. My mother forgot a bag on a boat trip, they picked it up and brought it back to us. I recommend. Great excursions. Staff really nice!

Balos and Gramvousa were fantastic, loved the turquoise waters! Well organised, lovely guide and very helpful staff. It is a must!

Disappointing , overbooking , beautiful place but organization, mediocre hostess support. Unattractive food and snack
