Our absolutely brilliant guide Yiannis was perfect. Giving us a deep insight into the history of Crete, the animals we saw on our tour and the food and culture of this beautiful island. Ending with the most amazing beach I have ever seen, a comfortable lounger to lie on and wonderful food to eat. If I could recommend one thing to do if you are interested in having an amazing time in Crete, it would be this ✨✨

There was nothing about this tour I didn't like! The beach was absolutely amazing: from the sand right down to the sea! The snacks and drinks provided were all delicious and the lunch was definitely my favourite thing eaten on this trip. LOVE moussaka

This is a great excursion especially if you don't want to drive the rough road yourself or hike down to Balos in the heat. Yiannis was an experienced and informative driver. We took great pictures of Balos Bay and then had a relaxing afternoon at Falasarnna beach. The day ended with a nice lunch at the beach tavern.

Excellent day tour to the beach with a stop off at Balos view point. The guide was great and kept us entertained throughout. There were only 2 couples on the small tour and this a huge olus. The beach was great!!!

Fantastic tour! Yiannis was an excellent guide! We all learned so much from him about Crete. There is no way we would try to drive up to the lookout without an experienced driver. Falassarna was a wonderful beach experience - easy to see why it’s one of the best beaches in the world.
