Knossos Palace och Heraklion City Tour

Our tour guide was Katerina. She was very helpful, considerate and knowledgeable. We felt well looked after. The tour was very informative and inspirational. We had plenty of time in both places and we covered a lot of historical ground. My only niggle, and it is a small one, is that it would have been nice if a bottle of water was included on the trip

First, I appreciated the information provided for pick up. It was clear and direct. The driver was on time and everything went smoothly. The tour itself was well paced and the information and historical facts were wonderful.

The tour guide was amazing named poppy , she toured us in both enlist and German , the Knossos palace was interesting but too much tour groups at at time but very informational tour , the trip to Heraklion was good we managed to tour and explore the city of Heraklion was amazing I would recommend to try this tour ❤️❤️❤️

The guide had to use 3 languages which made it quite disjointed and lengthy. The itinerary was mixed around with a pointless trip to a market at the start.

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and thorough and we enjoyed our visit to Knossos. However, we felt the admission fee to the Knossos site should have been included in the cost of the trip. It just seemed a little pricey for the day which included 3 hours of unguided free time in Heraklion and a long bus ride from and back to our hotel picking up and dropping off other travellers.

The overall experience of the tour was great. We got more than enough time to explore Heraklion city and enjoy a meal. The only thing keeping this review from a five star is that we were dropped back in a really small car crammed at the back seats. It was not the same van as what we were picked up in. The tour guide was dropped to her personal residence first which was a little unprofessional and unlike any other tours we did. Besides the sketchy drop off situation, it was a good tour.

Knossos palace tour excellent and informative. Visit to market a little longer than required. Heraklion visit worthwhile

Too expensive for a site that in the end presents few interesting remains, except those that benefit from beautiful frescoes, but which unfortunately are only an interpretation of the archaeologist who discovered this site. But hey, we must support Cretan archaeology😜.

If you manage to get Sula as your tour guide you are in for a treat. Sula was a lovely guide who with her extensive knowledge of both the Knossos palace ruins and Heraklion city but her quick wit & fabulous sense of humour made the tour that ever more enjoyable. Worth doing the tour and do visit the old fort in the port. That itself was amazing and nice & cool to walk around. Well done Sula and keep-up the excellent standards.

The Knossos tour and the walk around the city was fantastic as was our guide ( used earpiece to talk the guided tour so very good info -stick close to guide as Dip in signal occasionally) So why 3 rating well this was about the booking agent I booked a week before tour online and recieved confirmation of my payment and booking refund from Tripadvisor with a note to say local agent would contact me on pickup location and time! Nothing for three days so on day before I was due to fly to Crete contacted Tripadvisor and the gave ref no said would sort it Then travelled and still nothing so send direct to local co and copy to Tripadvisor still nothing fate three attempts eventually got details but they were for wrong trip and pick up time eventually got hotel to ring agent direct and sort out do advice check early and double check details Mike
