Elena was awesome. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Van was very comfortable for my party of 5 with good a/c The walking in the little downtown shopping area has a lot of history and they did a good job with very old and modern construction. Monastery was beautiful and you can buy wine and some treats as the Baklava. Beach was crowded but still find place for your towels, we didn’t have enough time to eat as the restaurant takes long time to take your order so do it with time. Overall, Elena did a great job explaining the history of the city. Highly recommend this tour!

Very informative tour, we learned a lot about the history of Crete and Chania, visited a beautiful monastery, had a lovely time at the winery tasting wines and sampling delicious home cooked dishes, and had an extensive tour of Chania. Our guide was very friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating, great experience overall.

We are passengers from Sun Princess and It was a pleasure to have Helen as our tour guide and made our Chania port stay a memorable one. She showed us the beautiful Chania old town and navigate the narrow paths with great photo spots. In the beach stop, she lent us a beach umbrella which is a life saver as all the umbrellas with beach chairs were all rent out by 2 pm. We manage to rent a beach chair and use her umbrella to survive the heat in the afternoon. The beach stop although was shorter than we would like, but the water is very nice and we had a Lovely swim. The restaurant she recommended was very good with delicious food and priced reasonably. We highly recommend to any cruise passengers to book this private tour if they want to see a lot in a couple of hours.
