We had a great day with Michael on the Jeep tour and beech. We saw some amazing sites and even stopped for an authentic Greek lunch. Micheal did a great job of driving, his accent was a little difficult at times to understand but he did a good job. The beech was almost private. Well worth your time.

Our guide was great - friendly, informative. Eight adults (with backpacks) was excruciatingly uncomfortable in one jeep. Stuffed in the back - half if us couldnt even look out the window. Beach was great but its a LONG time to be crammed into a hot jeep (no air conditioning) for a 45 min swim. Lunch was ok.

What a fantastic safari tour! The scenery was breathtaking, and there were plenty of stops along the way. Dimitri (our guide and driver) was a legend and explained everything in three languages. The Zaro lake was a serene place whilst the gorge was amazing. We saw archaeological sites along the way, a number of goats and learnt about the flora and fauna of the region. The beach was beautiful - charcoal sand with pebbles (we didn’t use shoes to swim), and sat in a cove at the end of the gorge with a bathroom to change and a small restaurant for refreshments. Lunch was delicious and we couldn’t finish the food and drinks. A great day trip from Heraklion that was organised from the booking to the end.

Andreas, was amazing. We had a great time as a family. The Jeep ride was so entertaining with lots of jokes and great learning experience. The food was great and the company even better. A must do in Crete!!! 5 stars
