Spinalonga - Agios Nikolaos De Heraklion
Descrição
Originalmente, Spinalonga não era uma ilha - fazia parte da ilha de Creta. Durante a ocupação veneziana, a ilha foi escavada na costa para fins de defesa e um forte foi construído lá. Durante o domínio veneziano, o sal foi colhido de salinas ao redor da ilha. A ilha também foi usada como uma colônia de leprosos. Spinalonga apareceu em romances, séries de televisão e um curta-metragem. Esta excursão é uma opção perfeita para quem deseja combinar passeios terrestres e marítimos. Você também terá a oportunidade de visitar a parte oriental de Creta, Agios Nikolaos, uma pequena cidade com um porto pitoresco e a ilha de Spinalonga.

De barco, visitamos a ilha de Spinalonga. Esta ilha foi usada como uma colônia de leprosos até 1957. Na pequena vila sob a fortaleza veneziana, os leprosos estigmatizados compartilharam o destino quando foram exilados para a ilha. Paramos para dar um mergulho nas águas limpas da praia de Kolokitha, na área dos restos da antiga cidade submersa de Olous.
Nós visitamos a parte oriental da ilha. Passando por Heraklio, chegamos a Agios Nikolaos, uma pequena cidade com um porto pitoresco. A cidade montanhosa é construída em torno de um antigo lago de água doce.

The excursion was booked at the hotel.
Places filled with history after a short boat ride, escorted by a perfectly bilingual guide (French, Dutch) with a very interesting narrative.
Beautiful day by coach and boat with a French-speaking guide from Stalis (Heraklion). Impressive views of the Spinalonga peninsula and the Elonda region. Crossing the bay by boat and moving discovery of the ancient Venetian fortress of Spinalonga transformed into a leper colony from 1903 to 1957! Impressive historical site, ghost leper colony named in French the Ile des Oubliés. A real must! The tour ends in the charming town of Agios Nikolaos.
Merci beaucoup pour votre avis ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié cette belle journée en autocar et en bateau, ainsi que les vues impressionnantes de la presqu'île de Spinalonga et de la région d'Éloúnda.

We had already read the book about Spinalonga and felt privileged to have visited the island. It was everything we hope it would be. The tool lady did talk for half an hour which was a needed arrival at the island
Fabulous and interesting day with Spiridon Tours where we visited the very pretty Nicolaus Agios and Spinalonga island. The tour was well organised, the ferry 20 minutes and the island really interesting. Well worth a day out! Take a tour and expect to start early! Spinalonga is not easily reached from Rethymnon.
Excellent day with French guide who tells us a whole exciting story with ruins that are rebuilt identically what a beautiful place full of charms
I went on the Spinalonga- Agios Nikolaos from Heraklion Tour in early July 2022 with my bf. They picked us up in an Orange Travel bus with a "Spinalonga" sign in front. I booked the tour through TripAdvisor which states that the tour operator was MTM D.M.C Ltd so there was quite a bit of confusion and the bus drove off to park down the street from us. Thankfully, we chases after it and check again and found that our name was on the list, even though it was spelled incorrectly (which apparently is pretty normal in Greece). We were the 2nd group to be picked up out of a group of maybe 10 of other stops. It took us over an hour and a half to pick everyone else up for the tour to actually begin. Because of this, we were also the last ones off the bus after dropping everyone else off. I wish they included an optional section under the inclusion section of the tour descriptions for bringing a bathing suit for a potential dip in the water. Because I did not see an option to go swimming in the ticket booking in the TripAdvisor app, we didn't bring a swimsuit for the occasion. The lunch was a soulvaki pork sandwich that did not include any kind of drink at all. I would recommend either bringing money to buy one or bringing your own for the trip. The only bottle of water that was given to us was near the end of the tour when we got to the Agios Nikolaos Lake. The water was not cold, nor was there a restroom in the chartered bus the tour was in. The tour guide, Eva, was nice but it was difficult to understand her at times. I ended up falling asleep when she would give her lectures. All in all, you really get what you pay for. The whole experience wouldn't have been as bad if you were picked up towards the beginning of the tour around 9AM. My bf and I were picked up at 7:35AM at the Ligo krassi ligo thalassa restaurant.
A surprising discovery of the fate that was once reserved for lepers isolated from the world and left to their fate. Too bad that this place is so frequented by an uninterrupted horde of tourists. Takes away a lot of charm from the visit.
We took an excursion from Gazi to the island of Spinalonga with the tour operator Sparrow Travel (offered by the Agapi Beach hotel) - be careful, the collection hde all guests in the hotels is endless: departure from the hotel at 7:00 am and arrival in Agios Nikolaos at 9:30 am - too bad because then the excursion itself is interesting - return time about 2 hours - arrival at 7:30 pm
Anti Ecological!! Departure by bus from the hotel (gas-oil * Air conditioning), arrival at the port departure in a large well polluting boat whose engine will run throughout the duration of the Excursion. Arrival on site the spinalonga visit is subject to a fee (8€ per person, without English translation). The boats arrive in turn and discharge 1 stream of tourists by letting out stinking smoke. The meal is taken on the boat (in the form of barbecue, the meat is good)., some Covid masks end up in the water, the cutlery is plastic, They fly during a gale and also end up in the water. The water is beautiful, but you swim near the boats in the smoke the engines. The worst part, strictly no one cares about the bottles and masks floating on the beautiful blue sea.
