A Great Day Trip - Fantastic day trip with great stop offs for photos of the spectacular views. Our tour guide, Costas was very welcoming and knowledgeable. The hotel pick ups and drop off were a bonus too. A great day out.

A must do! - Picked up in front of our hotel in Kavros, by Nectarios this morning of May 7, we had a great day thanks to him! We will keep a magical memory of this day. On board his Defender, we were able to admire sumptuous landscapes inaccessible from a standard vehicle! The unexpected stop due to an impressive number of vultures along the way will remain one of the unforgettable moments of this excursion. His communicative good humor and the care taken in explaining what we find on our route provides a truly personalized experience! Nectarios also knew how to make us laugh with the choice of songs in perfect harmony with the situations, and roads (so to speak😜). Also great to be able to discuss in French (impeccable by the way) but also his English used so that the whole group can understand his explanations. Thank you again for this memorable day!

Jeep tour with guide Costas is highly recommended! - We booked the jeep safari near our hotel Corissia Harmony. It was very straightforward. We were picked up directly from the hotel in the morning and had a great day. Be sure to wear your swimwear! Our guide was Costas. He was great. If you want to explore Crete in a different way and want more action, you should definitely do the tour. The jeep tour is highly recommended.

We had a great time with our guide Nectorius. He gave us an inside of the history and current affairs of Crete. Thanks. - We very much liked the opportunity to meet the people of Crete and get a chance to see there daily lives. We also enjoyed the off-road tour and the contact with some animals of Crete. Nektorious, our guide exchanged his deep knowledge, we learned a lot from him. Going home with a different view. Thank you for your awesome tour. B&H, Canada

Safari 4X4 - Superb 4X4 hike with our very friendly driver Nectarious who shows us his island and its treasures. We had a great day.

One Wild Ride! - We did a quad full day tour that included a stop at an olive oil factory. The owner picked us up from our cruise ship. Our guide was Odyss. We had a wonderful time and could not recommend this tour more. The staff was friendly. We learned so much on this tour. The olive oil products we bought were delicious. The scenery was breathtaking. The quads were good quality and well taken care of. This is by far one of the best tours that we did on this trip and would highly recommend it to anyone. PS. We got to make friends with so many wild goats!

Jeep - Excellent day in jeep. Descending the Cretan mountains is quite an experience. Our guide nektayrios contributed greatly to the success of this day. In addition, he speaks French very well. I recommend.

Great experience - Such a great tour ! Our tour guide was so informative and kind. I forgot his name but he spoke German and English and was so knowledgeable. Went off road on the mountains high up took photos , the quiet beach in the south was my favorite , lunch was good and the olive oil mill had a nice gift shop . Our group was 6 of us and it’s definitely worth it! Thank you so much for a great experience.

Breathtaking Tour with Nektarios - While visiting Greece we joined an off-road safari tour from Rethymnon with Nektarios. Wow! What a fabulous tour! Nektarios is a walking history book of Crete! Not only did he entertain and inform us all along the way but he did so in French and English to accommodate the tour group. He was very gracious, funny and an excellent driver. We went up into the mountains where he introduced us to the Cretan wildlife and landscape. The tour included a delicious seaside lunch. Overall the tour exceeded our expectations. We hope to have Nektarios again next year when we return. Bravo from Darlene and Paula!

Fantastic apart from the restaurant - Our family went on this trip with Nektarios, who was fantastic! We loved everything about this trip except the restaurant part. If the restaurant was removed from the trip, it would be almost perfect. We are an autistic family and many parts of the trip could have been quite stressful and difficult for us if it weren’t for the help and support of Nektarios. Nektarios is such a super guide; friendly, chatty, jolly, helpful, kind and informative. We were allowed to ask lots of questions and he always answered as best as he could. Nektarios knows a lot about Crete and its nature, landscape, plants and wildlife. I am disabled and Nektarios was very patient and helpful with me as I got in and out of the jeep. The off-road part of the trip over the mountains was very scary but we felt safe with Nektarios driving, he was very experienced. We enjoyed all the different stops apart from the restaurant. Sadly, that put a downer on the day and it left our children quite upset. Firstly, when we arrived and sat at the table, the waitress came out and told us what we would be eating. The first course was apparently a Greek salad. I informed her that I am allergic to cucumber and asked if we could we please have our salad without cucumber. She looked utterly confused and said that wasn’t possible as the salad was mixed. No problem, I said, we will just skip the salad then as I didn’t want to be ill. However, a few minutes later, she brought out a big bowl of Greek salad, without cucumber! It was quite tasty. (Nektarios went for a swim in the sea while we sat down to eat. We did not swim in the sea because we are autistic and the salt water irritates our skin. Plus there was nowhere to get changed/dry.) Anyway, the main course was chicken and penne pasta. It was awful, unfortunately. There was no flavour, no sauce and it was very bland and boring. The chicken tasted dry. We struggled to eat it but we forced ourselves because it was a long day without food. Our children couldn’t eat any of it so they ran off to play with the local cats on the beach. The dessert was a bunch of grapes and we were allowed one drink each. I popped to the loo and I noticed that there was no loo roll and there was strangely a shower head looped over a tap on the wall to the right of the loo. Luckily I had some tissues in my pocket. As we were about to finish the grapes, our young autistic daughter asked me where the loo was. She walked off alone and when she gently opened the toilet door the aforementioned shower started spraying water everywhere, which made her jump. She had only opened the door to the toilet so she had no idea where all the water was coming from. Suddenly, a lady working in the kitchen started screaming at our little girl. “CLOSE THE SHOWER! CLOSE THE SHOWER! CLOSE THE SHOWER!” Our daughter was so frightened and she didn’t know how to “close the shower” as all she had done was pushed open the toilet door. She had not even touched the shower. She stood there, terrified and confused and upset because she had firstly been soaked by a random, unexpected shower and then she was screamed at by a lady from the kitchen who came running towards her with her arms flailing and an angry, red face. Our daughter was then too frightened to use the toilet and she spent the rest of the trip desperate for the loo. The kitchen lady then marched out the front of the restaurant and started shouting angrily (in Greek) to Nektarios, who calmly and rationally replied to her (in Greek) until she eventually started to calm down. It was very awkward and all the other customers were staring. This upset our poor little girl and it spoiled the rest of the trip really, although we all tried very hard to calm our daughter and move past it. Nektarios helped to cheer us up too by not making a big deal of it. The road back to the pick up point was lovely, with fantastic views across the sea. Then we stopped at an olive oil processing facility, which was very interesting. It would have been even better if we could have seen the olives actually being pressed, rather than clean, empty machines, but we enjoyed it and we learned a lot. The shop at the end was super but everything was rather expensive so we only purchased a couple of items. In summary, the jeep trip was brilliant, if a little scary on the mountains, apart from the restaurant stop. I’d definitely book this trip again when we return to Crete next year, as long as they changed the restaurant. Nektarios is an excellent guide/driver and I’d be more than happy to go on a trip with him again! I would have given 5 stars if it wasn’t for the restaurant experience.
