Overview
Available languages
Mobile ticket
This is a private tour with a 7-seater van for maximum 6 guests.
Chania is a melting pot of civilizations and cultures, each invader leaving its mark on history, architecture and culture. Chania is the oldest continuously inhabited city in Europe dating back to the Minoan civilization. Our drivers are locals, fluent in English, know this place intimately and love sharing the knowledge.
We will drive around the city and visit various sites for 2 hours, and for 2 hours more you could wander around the picturesque alleys on your own and have lunch. Will explain the culture and traditions and how they formed the modern day city of Chania. We are not allowed to walk or guide in the old town with travellers, because our license is for a driving tour.
You could extend the tour, by visiting either the archaeological museum, do wine tasting or spend more time in Chania.
You can extend the tour for 3 hours and visit a beach or mountain restaurant and have lunch for an extra cost.

Fantastic Private Tour by George

5.00George was amazing and a wealth of knowledge. It is very apparent he loves his city, country, and what he does. We absolutely loved this tour and learning about his town. He gave amazing recommendations when we were in the Old City and we loved every minute of it.

5.00Our guide George was wonderful. He is friendly, well educated, travelled extensively, soft spoken and funny. He did not stop talking about various topics, on culture, traditions, nature, economics, politics, basketball, and so much more. He could make comparison between Greece, Europe, the US and the world and has a good understanding of current events (he studied Modern history and politics and has two MAs). This is not a history tour, boring with dates and events. It was extremely interesting, and we still visited the monuments and highlights of Chania old town. He was patient with us and stopped at shops to see and taste local products. We also visited the Commonwealth Cemetery from WW2 which was very moving. He responded to messages quickly, was punctual and flexible to our requests and our slow pace as we were a group of six older adults over the age of 60. I would highly recommend George and his company Niriis Tours.

5.00Petros was a great guide with tons of knowledgeable information about all the archeological sites. It was a little more walking than I had imagined but it was a good tour. We loved Petros.
