We made Zeus Cave and Knossos Palace private tour and we loved it. Spiro welcomed us in the terminal in the correct time and he is knowledgeable, funny and always ready to answer to our questions and curiosities.
Both sites were amazing, specially the Knossos Palace and it’s history.
We ended the tour having lunch in small tavern with Cretan food, wine and raki.

Would highly recommend this private tour

Unique tour!!

Nature,history,tradition and good food,all in one.
Spiro was very informative during the tour, and after the tour,he gave us some directions which places to visit and where to eat in Heraklion.
Overall a wonderful full day tour.

I recently had the pleasure of taking a tour with Spiro and I must say that it was an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment we met, I could tell that he was passionate about the area and he really wanted to share his knowledge with us! Throughout the tour he kept us engaged with many facts about the history and sights of the region. Spiros had the ability to personalize the tour to our interests. He went out of his way to make us comfortable and welcome. I would highly recommend them for anyone looking exceptional tour experiences! Thank you Spiros for an amazing tour!

Spiros was an excellent guide! He gave us great information and the tour felt personalized to us. He was very knowledgeable and was able to give us great advice on what places to go since we were limited on time. Our family would recommend that everyone goes on this tour when they visit the Crete/Heraklion area.

Let me say from start to finish, Spyros, our tour guide was the best! He was on time at the pick up point, very knowledgeable, engaging and made us feel very welcomed. He even ordered a birthday cake for one of our friends as a surprise. The lunch at the Taverna was delicious. The ride up to Zeus cave was beautiful and the walk up to the cave was challenging but I made it! I would highly recommend Spyros for this tour. He was very enjoyable!

This tour far exceeded our expectations!!! From our knowledgeable tour guide who led us through the Palace of Knossos, to our day long tour through the quaint villages of Crete, visiting windmills, eating at a wonderful taverna, coffee stop at an authentic café with the lovely Anna, and taking in the majestic views of the mountains of Crete. The day was perfect. But by far the best part of the day was our amazing driver, Spyros. He made us feel welcomed, he gave us an inside view to the daily lives of the people of Crete and their beautiful home, and he all around just took wonderful care of us. The tour would not be the same without him. Highly recommend you take this tour when you visit Crete.

We were on a 13 days Mediterranean Cruise with a stop in Crete. Our tour guide Spyros is the best. He was already waiting for us at the port. He gave us water and pastries the moment we enter the van. He made us feel like we are family. The whole tour was amazing. We did not want it to end. We visited traditional cafeteria in Lasithi and had traditional coffee and cookies made by elderly woman. We felt like we were Cretan that day. It was so amazing. Spyros took care of us so well. Thank you Spyros. I wish all guides are like you. Or at least have a fraction of your hospitality. This is the best tour we had. Well done Spyros.

Wow..what a great tour this was.
Spyros was our driver/guide and made this trip most memorable.
He was very caring,knowledgeable and attentive to our needs.
The places he took us too,the lovely little coffee shop with family history,picking fruit along the way plus all the inclusive attractions on the tour.
He arranged a birthday cake at our lunch spot for one of us..wonderful.
I can highly recommend this tour and I hope that if you do it you get Spyros as your guide.

Visiting Crete in the off season was ideal, nice weather and no crowds! There were 6 of us on a cruise with Celebrity and decided we wanted to have a private experience for our visit to Crete. In a cost/value basis, this tour was far superior to anything offered by the cruise line and allowed us to see the sights at our own pace.

Our driver, Spyros, was fantastic. Personable, knowledgeable, funny and welcoming. We really enjoyed the time we spent with him and felt we had an insider’s view of Crete.

While Knossos was amazing (we would highly recommend hiring the optional guide for the visit as we learned so much more. Marina was our guide and she was excellent), the highlight was the special location for lunch in a small local restaurant. The proprietor, Anna, who was in her 80’s, provided us an amazing authentic lunch. The food was simple and delicious. Two in our group are Vegan, and there was plenty for them. It was liking having lunch with a Cretan grandmother. So fun!

My career was in travel developing tour programs, and from my personal experience over 40+ years, I can saw this was a great tour.
