I had a shared tour in the old town of Chania guided by Olga. There were only three of us and the tour was really personable. We strolled around the alleys and our guide kept on sharing interesting local info and tips. We saw how folklore knives are made, took a walk through the leather street and had the chance to buy some great quality local products. Traveling solo and having someone taking photos at the best spots was a big plus! Thank you Olga!

The artisans and sightseeing tour was the absolute best way to start my stay in Chania! I liked that Olga was the intermediate link with the local craftsmen and she was giving opportunities to our group for interaction. She shared a lot for the life and culture of the locals, as well as tips for our stay in Crete. The local snack provided was yummy!
