Itinerary

  • Lake Kournas

    Our first stop will be Lake Kournas. KOYRNAS A semi-mountainous village with a lovely lake of the same name, the only one in Crete, surrounded by mountainous masses constituting a landscape of unique beauty. The ancient name of the lake was Korissia Athena, and it is said that there was once a sanctuary of the same name, although there is no proof at this present time.

    30 minutes

  • Archaeological Site Of Aptera

    Our second stop, after an interesting drive from Lake Kournas, which will be about 30 min, will be Aptera Ancient Site and Koules Fortress. Explore Roman cisterns, a monastery, a picturesque church, and a very beautiful ancient theater that still stands today. After that, our group has time to take great photos of Souda Bay from the Kules Fortress. The time spent there is about 1 hour, 30 minutes.

    1 hour

  • Chania Town

    We will visit streets, buildings, high spots, neighborhoods, and monuments that only we, the locals, know. We will walk together on the stone paths where the Venetians, the Ottomans, and the old Cretans used to live and work. We will admire the incredible flower-decorated neighborhoods, learn about Cretan history, Cretan mythology, and traditions, meet the locals, and eat like locals. Return to Rethymno, travel time is about one hour.

    2 hours

  • Piges Argiroupolis

    Lunch at the waterfalls! Argyroupoli, previously Ancient Leppa Is a well-preserved village with natural springs and many Venetian mansions that are still residential. However, the place that accepts the most visitors is the famous Springs of Argyroupoli, which are formed in a green setting a few meters below the village. The water comes out of the cave of Agia Dynami and after passing the old watermills that once ground the grain, they end up in the riverbed of the river Mouselas. The watermills today have been turned into taverns that offer traditional food.
