This was our best excursion of our trip. The views were fantastic! The climbing in the Gorge was so much fun and the guides did a fantastic job watching out and helping our group! Loved our food at the restaurant they took us to! Michael had lots of knowledge about Crete. I would definitely recommend this tour!

Embark on an exploration journey to the South Coast of Crete via a picturesque route from the North while absorb the best of Cretan culture from visiting one of the best olive oil factories, villages, forests and experience a genuine Cretan active lifestyle mini-hike in a beautiful gorge. Panos our dedicated tour guide was outstanding in terms of safety and knowledge of every detail that we saw. Our journey began with great view points nearby Eludna into the Marbella bay followed by authentic village experience in Kristi and another town covered in lovely colored doors and mulberry trees. We learned alot about the fauna that grows on Crete. We also visited great villages and I shopped handmade tablecloths while met senior Cretan villagers who were kind and always bid you adieu with a smile. We continued our journey to the forest followed by lunch in one of the best mountain village restaurants in Crete. We then did a wuick hike followed by ending the trip in a strikingly blue beach! Panos is definately one of the most experienced and pleasurable guides that I have seen in my decades of travelling. This os well worth every minute and highly recommended for those that want a real exciting Cretan one day excursion.

A must whilst in Crete.

Super trip. Michael and his French co-pilot made the day great. The wealth of knowledge Michael has about Greek history and mythology was amazing. Pick up and drop off outside our hotel door in Elounda. We visited an Olive co-operative, walked the Sarakina Gorge for 1 hour. All inclusive lunch in a local Taverna with grilled meats.. Time to spend in the Libyan sea for a swim at the end of the day. 100% recommended bravo Michael. Thank you.

Amazing experience

Host was very friendly and knowledgable Lunch was delicious at a small taverna in the hills. There were only 4 of us and we went in a land rover. Some of the little villages were so quaint and clean Would recommend this trip!
