Amazing day!

Published on Oct, 2024

We were picked up from our apartment. Giannis was our driver, very friendly and welcoming with amazing knowledge of the area. We enjoying listening to the history of the Creta whilst exploring the olive groves and the amazing nature around us. Our first stopped was Balos.Incredible view of Balos and the beach at Falasarna is stunning. The time spent at Falasarna beach was really very relaxing and nice that we have the reserved sunbeds. We had about 5 hours for swimming and sunbathing under umbrellas and chose a snack for lunch and everything was included in the price. We highly recommend this tour! You will not be disappointed! Thank you so much ❤️
