Knossos is wonderful. It can be very hot. Heraklion museum. Is one of the best in the world. Transportation between Knossos and museum can be tricky. Our guide was a great help.
Our outdoor guide was incredible. It was a very hot day (June in a heat wave) and our guide took us through all the key spots and allowed us to take pictures before giving more detailed explanations in the shade. We had a small group, so it made navigating very easy. Our guide was very knowledgeable and tied in the mythology to actual events to piece everything together seamlessly. Very professional and experienced. We took the bus to the museum after, and due to heavy traffic, timing was tight. Our museum guide was quiet, but delightful and took us through the high points of Minoan society and artifacts.
Thank you, Patrick, for your wonderful review! We’re delighted that Akrivi made your Knossos Palace tour comfortable despite the heat, with shade, photo stops, and engaging Minoan mythology. It’s also lovely to hear that you enjoyed the Heraklion Archaeological Museum and its remarkable artifacts. We hope to welcome you back to Crete!
Educational, engaging mix of history and mythology. So glad we booked small group tour

The tour was interesting and well organized. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and engaging. It was an easy checkin process. We enjoyed both tours immensely. She made history come to life and had a good sense of humor.

It would be our absolute pleasure to welcome you back to Crete for another curated experience.
The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and cognizant of other people around us. She had great stories to share. I was extremely lucky and was the only person on the tour at the museum. She gave me an in-depth tour and then I took more time to look around on my own. You need to arrange your own transportation from Knosos to the museum.

Very happy to have booked this tour! Our guide Akrivi was extremely knowledgeable of the site and provided a great deal of information on the site and the history of Knosos, a true step back in time. The visit to the archeological museum with our guide after the palace was a great way to see many original pieces found during the excavation and put this whole day together. Highly recommend!
Dear Peter, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed both Knossos Palace and the Archaeological Museum with Akrivi – she is indeed passionate about sharing the rich history of Minoan Crete. It’s always rewarding when our guests feel the full story come together, from exploring the ancient site to seeing the original artifacts in the museum. We truly appreciate your kind recommendation and hope to welcome you back for more discoveries in Crete! Warm regards, Giannis WeGuide Team – Travel Crete
Eleni Vazakopoulou, from treasuresofcrete, was our guide. We were a family of 6, including two girls of 10 and 7, who are very interested in Greek Mythology. Eleni made the ruins of Knossos come alive for them as well as giving us all the historical information. The same was true of the museum. She also managed the day so we had a break for a meal and had activities for the girls. Even though it was a cold damp day it was fantastic and the highlight of our stay in Crete. I could not recommend Eleni more highly.
Thank you!
There is an app with audio guide. I can recommend them. The tablets available at the entrance are unfortunately overpriced. ...or you can book a personal guide
Thank you.
Good Day! We had the honor of listening & learning from Katarina!!! Her knowledge base is extraordinary! Her personality & how she engages us was exceptional! She was so funny & kept us entertained & interested the entire time! It was a lot of information! I want to learn & listen to Katarina again!!!! She made the trip to Knossos absolutely wonderful!!!!
Thank you !!!
Very good tour and guides at Knossos and the museum. There are guides available for hire at the entrance to Knossos as well. The museum is definitely worth it for those interested in history. You should be aware that all the tall structures, pillars and frescos at Knossos are reconstructions.
Thank you !!
