Reviews: Crete: Knossos Palace and Museum E-Tickets with Audio Guides

It's difficult to orient yourself properly, and as soon as you use your phone to take a picture, you have to completely restart the app or there's no sound. But otherwise, it's really interesting!

We had a beautiful day with Nico - he was a fantastic guide and beautiful person. The cave of Zeus was closed so Nico improvised- he knows so many people in the mountains - so he was able to take us to a local family who makes fresh goat yogurt- that we were able to sample. He took us to a lovely mountain top restaurant , sampled the fresh produce of the mountains and great history lesson of Crete. The palace of Knossos was incredible to see and experience. Nico made the day incredible and special for us.

This Guide was Great! Clear, easy to follow, and understandable! We did like this particular company that provided this service - it's our second and quite good. Compared to our Acropolis experience - 100% improvement - which was entry ticket only and non audio tour!!

Embark on an exploration journey to the South Coast of Crete via a picturesque route from the North while absorb the best of Cretan culture from visiting one of the best olive oil factories, villages, forests and experience a genuine Cretan active lifestyle mini-hike in a beautiful gorge. Panos our dedicated tour guide was outstanding in terms of safety and knowledge of every detail that we saw. Our journey began with great view points nearby Eludna into the Marbella bay followed by authentic village experience in Kristi and another town covered in lovely colored doors and mulberry trees. We learned alot about the fauna that grows on Crete. We also visited great villages and I shopped handmade tablecloths while met senior Cretan villagers who were kind and always bid you adieu with a smile. We continued our journey to the forest followed by lunch in one of the best mountain village restaurants in Crete. We then did a wuick hike followed by ending the trip in a strikingly blue beach! Panos is definately one of the most experienced and pleasurable guides that I have seen in my decades of travelling. This os well worth every minute and highly recommended for those that want a real exciting Cretan one day excursion.

This is a wonderful tour. George our driver was very professional and Sophia our tour guide was absolutely fantastic and knowledgeable. There is no way we would have learned as much on our own at these sites. The only caution is make sure you understand the port you are traveling into for how long the tour will be. We docked in Chania so it was a two hour drive to get to the other side of the island. That was my oversight. If you dock in Heraklion, you are 10 minutes away. A tour worth taking
Reviews: Samaria Gorge Hiking from Chania with Professional Hiking Guide

A fantastic day, organisation without fault, guide super, gorge spectacular. Coach was air conditioned which was a god send at the end of the day as the last 3km of the walk was hot beyond anything I've experienced (although from the UK so not a high bar!), really well driven on some very mountainous roads. Guide gave just the right amount of information and some interesting facts during the coach journey without overdoing it. Available without being in in your face, basicly you make your own way down while she swept up any stragglers to ensure every makes the ferry. The gorge is spectacular and I would recommend to anyone interested. It is nearly all down hill but it is rough ground. I wore trainers which I would not recommend if you have hiking boots (I did not bring them to Crete), by the end the soles of my feet were suffering from the rough ground. It is also very hot, especally the last 3km from the National Park exit to the ferry. It's tough but very much worth the effort, time and cost.
