It was amazing. I have an ancient history degree and loved learning the myths and legends of the king of Minos, but actually experiencing it was amazing. I learned so much more in visiting the palace and the museum, it’s amazing value for money. There is a cafe at the palace which is great, they sold gifts and mini statues, would recommend and I will definitely be back!

The audio guide (in Italian) was extremely well done. Clear, engaging, simple to use. A real value. I used it to go around the palace of Cnosso a second time by myself (after a guided tour). It provided attritional and satisfying information. I was surprised it was that well done!! Also the museum audio guide was excellent!! Highly recommended!

It was the first time for me using the downloaded audio guide and it was great experience. This particular audio guide was really made like someone in person has been walking you through the attractions. Very easy to follow, interesting stories, you can stop and/or repeat the sections whenever you want. Great thing and definitely will repeat it for some following trip.
