The tour is absolutely amazing!!! We started with a trip to Knossos palace, which is very pretty and since we went early, we had the whole place almost to ourselves. Then, we went to an olive oil factory where we got to see how olive oil is made and taste some! After that, we had a tour all around some mountain villages. There were so many things to see (historical windmills, the cave of Zeus, goat herds, mountain and beach views, orchards) and so many delicious foods to try (tea/coffee, fresh yogurt, carob, olives). And we learned so much about Crete geography, history, and mythology! Our guide was an incredible host! It was the perfect tour and I highly recommend!

I had the BEST day! I am on a trip with my dad and we had booked this and then he didn’t feel well enough the day of so I went ahead and went even though I had planned on riding and not driving. Our guide Haris was so patient and helped me figure it out. Haris made sure we all had a great time and that we were safe at all times. All the stops were so neat! I loved learning about olive oil and getting ro buy some. The restaurant was beautiful and the food was wonderful. Book this trip! You will be glad that you did! Harris is a fun guide who makes sure everyone has an amazing time!

It was amazing! The guide was very flexible in terms of the rout to take and provided us options to choose. In our case our group was not ready for the hardcore off-road tour, so we voted to focus more on driving among the mountains and visiting beautiful vistas, towns and villages using regular roads. We also stopped at will whenever we wanted to take photos. The guide also made photos by himself and shared with us. We got excellent experience and photos! The tour duration was just perfect - not too much and not too little. I can highly recommend this activity!
