Overview
This is a transfer for Samaria gorge for a maximum 6 guests (price is for 6 persons). If you wish a private guide its 300 euro more per group. Please ask me for availability.
Samaria gorge is a National Park with unique flora and fauna, in the heart of mountains. It is the best hike in Crete, and probably one of the best in Europe. Its open 1st May to end of October. The hike is demanding. The path is uneven and rocky, you have to watch your step.
Samaria is a 16km (10 miles) downhill hike in forest and mountains, with a river flowing and organized resting places. Its impossible to get lost, you will hike in the bottom of the gorge with cliffs around. It takes 5 hours to cross it. Its something between Grand Canyon and Zion.
Will depart at 7am and return at 9pm. After an hour driving we will reach the gorge entrance where I drop you off. Hike ends at Agia Roumeli, a tiny village, buy boat tickets for Sougia. At Sougia I will wait for you to drive you back.
Pick up and drop off from your accommodation or any other convenient location in the greater Chania area. Please contact us regarding your pick up place for further information. ...Read more ▼

Gorge hike and great lunch and swim at the breach! Great guide!!
Published on Sep, 2024
Our guide Sofia took us and our friends to do Imbros Gorge. It was nice and cool inside it and even though it took us a little bit more than usual (a bit more than 3 hours) we completely enjoyed since the level of difficulty were at moderate standards! Then we went for lunch at this restaurant with a beach beneath and the water were nice and rejuvenating! We wanted to say a big thank you to Sofia for making this tour special to us and so enjoyable. TOTALLY RECOMMEND!

We had a fantastic day with Georges, our guide. He knows everything about his country and its history (that he studied). His french was surprisingly good ! Great experience.
