"mariano’s was very knowledgeable and was a excellent guide it was nice to get out and experience the real crete a must if you ever come to heraklion"

"Excellent day out for our family group of 8 on private sailing yacht. Got a good sail in and lots of swimming and snorkelling and a great lunch with plenty drinks from our skipper."

"Was a memorable interesting day tailored to our needs . Plenty of interesting information regarding Cretan way of life Loved the homemade Raki - cannot thank our guide Kostas enough for sharing his home made delicacies and introducing us to local food"

"The visit to the island brought the history of the leper colony to life. We were sorry not to spend longer there."

"This was an excellent tour. Our guides were excel Liam’s very friendly. They took us to many great places--we visited specialty shops, 2 wineries, bakery and an Awesome Taberna for a huge lunch, it was a great day and I would have been very hard pressed to find all of these places without a guide. Highly recommend."

"Very enjoyable and great to see what life is like in crete away from the coast. Some amazing views along the trip and the guides were very good."

"Kostas was a wealth of information with a very comfortable vehicle and local tastings. He chose interesting stops and plenty of flexibility to stop where we would like"

"We enjoyed the experience very much. It was a great way to see more into the Cretan lifestyle and we loved the cooking class. We’d definitely recommend it!"

"Johana, our very knowledgeable and intelligent guide. We might like to discuss with her again if possible."

"Alex was a wonderful host and made sure we saw the best parts of historic Heraklion; just be careful of the Cretan Water at lunch!"

"We had a great time learning about Cretan wines with Pierre, who was incredibly knowledgeable and never stopped talking. Wines and food were tasty and it was a nice experience to share with the other travellers. Highly recommend."

"We didn’t really need these skip the lone tickets in October as there were no crowds. We enjoyed touring the site and felt we didn’t need a guide because we brought a guidebook with us."

"Areti was an amazing guide with years of experience. She is a sommelier that truly teaches about the production, history and the experience of drinking wine. The weather wasn’t favorable during the morning and she made it up by taking us to a local village cafeterio where we shared Greek coffee with locals. The wine tasting was great and by the time we got to our lunch we were stuffed - so don’t over indulge. George at the restaurant was a very pleasant gentleman with a passion for his restaurant. The trip was amazing and would recommend any couples to take this trip!"

"I really enjoyed the experience. I mean, if you don't have a semi-decent to a solid set of core muscles, you are going to hate life and all of creation. But, I mean, it's no lazy stroll around the fish pond. The first near half of the hike is downhill and steep. Do not underestimate that steepness. I've hiked insane hikes in Gunnison National Park (Colorado, US) and others. This hike was its own adventure: for the muscles and soul. Pretty sure my guardian angel walked out on me after. It's all good; I'm sure another will take up the helm. I had Marcos from Orange Tours, and he was great. He's funny, light-hearted, and has more energy than he probably should. He's great. A tip, when your guide says, "I won't bore you with the history," but then says, "if you have questions, ask, or this is your time for the mic," that means they are leaving the floor open for you. I read someone complains about the lack of history . . . dude, Marcos went one-by-one asking people, answering people, and so forth. I mean, it really was personalized. The sack lunches were sweet, as trail mix and fruit will not cut it on this one. Also, refill along the trail. The water is cold, it is good, and you will need it."

"Awesome guide, awesome tour. Got picked up right on time, had a great lunch and saw many of the best spots on the island. We also saw the real Amalthaea. 10/10"

"Was very good expidrence. Guides were very knowligible and we saw a lot in One day. We saw Knossos, had pottery class,lunch in vilige was great."

"Excellent tour and highly recommend. Lunch was very tasty along. Olive oil tour was very informative and well priced. The winery was beautiful and service was amazing!"

"Absolutely awesome time. I have never scuba dived before, and Aqua Dive was the perfect introduction to life under the water. They teach you everything you need to know and make sure you are comfortable the entire time. Highly recommend"
