“This was an amazing introduction to Crete. Vagelis was a fantastic guide and showed us the local side of the island. We fed and milked goats, visited beautiful lookouts, learned about the olive oil industry, explored a monestary and had a wonderful Greek lunch at an intimate family restaurant in the mountains of Crete. Our guide made sure that we experienced the beauty of the island as well as the local customs and traditions. This was our favorite tour while on our 23 day European vacation and helped our entire party fall in love with Crete. We would highly recommend this tour to about any age group. Our family included…”

“We joined many tours during our trip to Greece (almost one every day) and I can honestly say this was the BEST experience. No other tour even comes close. Stavros is an outstanding guide: a true local who knows the history and culture of Crete inside and out. He’s easygoing, fun, and kept the energy high throughout the day. He took us to fascinating spots, including hidden gems that only locals know about. Along the way, we enjoyed tastings of local olive oil, fresh strawberries and tomatoes, authentic Greek yogurt with honey, and wrapped up the day with a delicious meal at a local eatery. The whole experience felt genuine,…”

We were the last bus to return to the ship. When we became concerned about returning on time, he told us to relax and insulted us.”

15.Road-trip to Lasithi, Zeus Cave, Vidiani, Krasi & Olive Mill Farm

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 79 reviews · 10 to 11 hours (approx.) · from $48

Air-conditioned road trip from Heraklion to Vidiani Monastery, Zeus Cave at Psychro, Krasi village, and an olive mill farm.

“This is a very large group tour and there are two monasteries and a very touristy stop at a shop selling olive oil and wine. Kids loved the pottery class though and it is a safe clean way to go to the cave which was the main reason we had taken it. It’s a beautiful drive but it took 10 hours total given multiple pick ups and drops - and the monasteries and olive tree stop were extra hours we wish we had just been able to skip.”
