Wonderful tour guide, amazing sites - After a bit of a mixup in meeting location, we met up with our extraordinary tour guide Chatzea Eleftheria. Aside from being remarkably knowledgeable (and very fluent in English), she has a wonderful sense of humor and character, and has boundless energy. The historic sites, of course, were amazing, but she also provided context with tales of Greek mythology.

Great tour experience - Our tour guide (Isertis sp?) did a wonderful job. She made the entire tour both entertaining and educational. Her detailed pre tour preparation was clear and she took the time to learn our areas of interest and to correspond accordingly.

Great guide and Knossos is a must-see - Our guide was fantastic- super friendly and very knowledgeable. And the Palace of Knossos was extraordinary. A highlight of the trip.

Just brilliant - We were met by Christina whom was a pocket rocket. We travelled in absolute luxury to Knossos Palace where we were treated to the most knowledgeable tour of the sight which is just amazing, what an ingenious civilisation some 4,000 years ago. We then travelled to the Archaeological Museum which was mind blowing, again Christina provided us with the most informative tour. The tour was a little expensive however worth every single dollar and Christina’s experience and knowledge was priceless!

Excellence Private Guide. - The private tour guide. She was an archaeologist and brought the Knossos site to life. This is perhaps one of the single most impressive sites we have visited.

Good Tour - The day my friend and I were suppose to go to Knossos Palace, it rained and the Palace was closed. The tour guide picked us up on time. I liked that they offered to cancel and refund the tour due to the rain and the Palace being closed, but we decided to go anyways. As an alternative, the tour guide took us to the museum and walked the city with us. The tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable.

Are you interested in Palace of Knosses - First: a word about Greece. The landscapes are stunningly beautiful: coastlines, mountains, blue water. You will walk among 2,500-year-old archaeological sites. The food is every bit as good as you imagine it will be. But the best part of Greece is its people. I had not one bad interaction with a local Greek; they were consistently gracious, friendly, helpful. This country deserves to be on your bucket list. Greece has something like 38 million visitors (in a country with 11 million residents) in 2019. That number is less than half right now as they recover from the pandemic. Now is the time to go to Greece! Bring your swimsuit, appetite, and camera. It’s the trip of a lifetime. This was a private tour. The tour guide and driver were excellent. They took us to Knossos first. Tour guide explained the historical significance of this palace. We had skip the line tickets. Still, the archeological site was hot, there were long lines, it wasn't particularly interesting. The tour guide brought us back to Iraklion, ensured we had our bearings and gave us some time to shop and dine. They returned us to the ship on time. I want to reiterate that both the tour guide and driver were excellent, Knossos just wasn't worth the heat and long lines. I'm sure there are interesting things to do in Crete, but Knossos isn't one of them. If you're interested in history, get your fill in Athens and Olympia.
