Amazonas Park and Glass Bottom Boat Tour
Overview
Available languages
Mobile ticket
It's all about Crete's wild side on this tour. You'll come face-to-face with monkeys, meerkats, lemurs, and more at Amazonas Park Nature Reserve and see a world below the waves with a glass-bottom boat trip. And in between, there's free time to chill out in Agios Nikolaos.
Your destination for the morning is Amazonas Park, an animal refuge where you'll get up close to some of the world's most unusual, beautiful, and endangered animals. You'll also find out about their rainforest environments and how we can help with conservation efforts.
At Agios Nikolaos town, you'll have a couple of hours to shop or grab lunch overlooking Mirabello Bay. Next, hop on a glass-bottom boat for a trip in the bay. You'll glide out into the bay aboard a semi-submarine, which features windows beneath the surface. Kids and adults will have a great time spotting the likes of loggerhead sea turtles and multicolored fish darting around the rocks.

5.00Picked up on time. Very well organised. It was as advertised. Feeding the lemurs was a great experience. At Agios Nikolaos there was free time to look around. It was very picturesque.
Amazonas was great but..

3.00Amazonas Park was fantastic! The park is not just another zoo and has a lovely story behind it. The lemur experience was magical. The boat trip however was very disappointing, seen more tyres than fish. Had the trip only been Amazonas Park and Agios I would have given it 5 stars
Amazonas Great but…

5.00We were the first collected so the initial journey ended up being 2hrs with all the stops to collect. This was the only downside. Tour guide was a lovely woman fluent in English and German. She explained various landmarks and was super engaging. The glass bottom boat was lovely, despite one of our group having a touch of sea sickness. He was able to use the on board bathroom and get some air on the top deck. Agios Nikolas was beautiful. Lovely beach for a swim if you have swimwear. Twins pizza was gorge spot for lunch. Def not just pizza. Amazonas park was amazing. I would not recommend driving more than 45mins just for it, as it is small (maybe 45mins outside the lemurs), but this was a perfect tour day activity. Feeding the lemurs was a bucket list item my kids (and I) will remember forever. Thank you for a wonderful trip!
Well worth it.

5.00Fantastic experience. The half submarine ride was fantastic, we enjoyed all of the sights below and above deck. Great to see the sea-life unaffected going about their day whilst enabling the pleasure to capture on camera.
A fantastic day out in beautiful Crete!

5.00We had a fantastic trip out today! Starting with the semi-submarine we saw a plethora of marine life in the crystal clear waters. We then stopped at the beautiful Agios Nikolas where we enjoyed lunch looking over the lake and wandered through the market. Finally we drove up through the mountains (expect stunning views) to Amazonas park for an amazing experience of feeding the monkeys. We would definitely recommend.

2.00A absolute long day for absolutely no reason. Got picked up efficiently. However when to the boat tour,that was undeniably very lousy! Seen nothing but fish. Lol. Then basically was dumped and had to find something todo for 3 hours on our sens. Finally went to amazonas,very small,lost of monkeys and parrots. Fed the lemurs what was a brilliant experience. Some poeple may how found this a good day bit 3 hours to find something todo and head back to the coach was a bit much..guide was spot on though all this could of been done in 4 hour
Unfortunately, we cannot recommend

2.00Unfortunately not a good day trip. The whole day was not used sensibly. 2 hours we were used in total, the remaining 5 hours were spent with breaks and travel times. (A nice day at the beach less for us 😕 )
10/10 would recommend

4.00The glass bottom boat tour was interesting if you’re a fan of marine life, however the name glass bottom Boat tour can be a tad misleading, as it’s not a glass bottom boat where you sit at the top and look down, it’s a mini submarine. It can be quite humid and claustrophobic inside during the tour. The stop off at Agios Nikolaos was lovely and you’re given lots of time to explore. Amazonas park was amazing, lots of animals (mainly parrots) and some are very talkative! Feeding the lemurs was also a one time experience I recommend.
