    Absolutely incredible experience, Nikos was so accommodating and patient with us! He made us feel so comfortable and truly wouldn’t have been able to get around experiencing Crete this way without his expertise. Highly recommend this tour!

    Excellent tour! Nasos, our tour guide was absolutely amazing! His deep knowledge of Crete’s history added an extra element to the tour. The review a few under mine from “Yanina” makes me laugh. She is mad she didn’t lounge at Balos beach when the description literally says you won’t stay at that beach… learn how to read Yanina!! Thank you Nasos!

    Our guide Demitros and Nick were 5 stars. Incredibly knowledgeable about the Greek history and culture. The tour was a very comfortable drive in air conditioned land rovers. We would never have been able to make that Balos drive in our own car. They got us right to the front door in both locations. They even brought bananas for us to feed the goats! Balos was beautiful. I wished I booked the tour to the actual balos beach. Falassarna was pretty but not as spectacular a location as balos or elafanisos beach.

  • Very organized and relaxing

    Demetrius was an incredible guide. He picked us up right on time and the ride to the beaches was very comfortable. He taught us so many facts about the island and its history. This excursion is very very organized. The way they plan it is seamless and the views are spectacular. The umbrella and chairs that they have reserved for you at the beach are a very nice touch, and the lunch is delicious!!!

  • Disappointing experience from the owner of the company

    We try to travel on the shoulder months to avoid crowds. So imagine our disappointment when the guide arranged the tour to avoid non existent crowds… if you want to be micromanaged then this is the tour for you! We were looking forward to seeing the Balos beach( not from the top of the hill but actually visit it). We are both in decent shape and were ready for a hike when our operator decided that we would have more fun just sitting on a comfortable different beach (Falassarna) and just see Balos from above. Both beaches were completely empty, by the way. He ran the outing like a military excursion (we didn’t have a lot of choice in itinerary) Even-though it was a private tour! We appreciate punctuality but do not appreciate regimentation. Prior reviews tell a different story, possibly because of a different guide! Positive, the food at Falassarna beach was very good.
