Fantastic Day! - Spyros was a fantastic tour guide! We had the best day in Crete and weren't ready to leave the wonderful island our people we met that day. Spyros went above and beyond any other tour guide we had on the trip, he really enjoys his job and Crete and brought us that energy. We would 100% recommend a tour with him, we hope to see him again next time we visit Crete. He made sure that even things that weren't on our itinerary but on our must see list we got to see and he stopped to get us olive oil and lunch.

Excellent Tour!! - Spending a week on holiday in Crete Island I would say that the two days me and my wife made a tour with Tours in Heraklion, were the best days. We booked a Wine tasting tour through Viator and booked also a private tour, Knossos Palace and Lasithi Plateau, through Tours in Heraklion, both tours were excellent, informative and very funny. A lot to see and enjoy. For sure if we ever visit Crete Island again, definitely will make another tour with Tours in Heraklion. Thank you guys! Definitely recommend
