My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Knossos & the Heraklion archaeological museum. Our guide Christina was very communicative and helpful and kept us entertained on the long bus journey, we learned lots about the history of Crete and Cretan culture & customs which was very interesting, with Christina also pointing out things along the way such as the American military base and the white mountains. We really appreciated having a tour guide at Knossos as we were able to skip the long queues for tickets and understand what we were looking at throughout the site. We were also provided with refreshments and snacks throughout the trip which was a nice bonus. The museum is definitely one of the most impressive museums we have ever been to & we were very fortunate to have been able to visit. We got to explore Heraklion city a little too which was lovely. Overall we would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to visit Knossos & the museum! :)

Christine and Thanos ran an amazing excursion to Knossos Palace and Heraklion. From the moment I booked the tour, Christine was communicative and helpful. My husband and I wanted to leave from Heraklion city centre to go the Heraklion airport rather than travel back to Chania and they were very accomodating. 10/10 would recommend!

This was honestly one of the best full day tours I had in Crete. I have a fear of long bus trips but the two hours going in the mini bus, I was completely entertained by Christine, information about with Cretan culture and information about Cretan mythology. Full ac and wifi too. We were a small group of about 12 people. At Knossos, we had an excellent guide who truly was very knowledgeable and made sure that we had shade when possible. We got to visit the Archeological Museum (lots of interesting things to see) and had the option of going on a walking tour of with Christine in Heralkion or on our own; we chose the second option and had time for lunch. We supplied with cold bottles of water by our wonderful driver and even Cretan sweet cheese pies. On our way back on the bus, we even learn some Cretan phrases. Christine was excellent from the time I booked - confirming twice the pickup point via email to the tour itself - knowledgeable and very helpful.
If you want to actually appreciate Knossos, go on this tour

We were collected in Chania at a really convenient place near our hotel. Christine was our guide, and together with our driver, made sure the journey to Knossos went smoothly and enjoyably, making sure we had enough water and that we were always comfortable, as well as telling us more about Crete.
Our guide at the Palace at Knossos and at the museum in Heraklion was knowledgeable and so enthusiastic. I learned so much about Minoan history while also enjoying the beautiful weather. We had some free time in Heraklion which was much appreciated.
Overall, I would genuinely recommend this tour as a way to see Knossos and Heraklion.
