        A must for military history students  - I did the tour because my regiment had a squadron of tanks in Crete during the battle. The tour lived up to all expectations, Yannis, our driver and guide was excellent and very knowledgeable. A very good value for money tour..

        Excellent tour and history lesson - Babis was an excellent guide - very knowledgeable and entertaining.  The sites we visited during the tour provided us with a greater insight of the history and trauma experienced  by both Cretans and allied forces during World War II.
