Great organisation, lovely village and lively tavern with locals and Cretan dancers! - Excellent. Our booking was easy, the pre-information email was timely and the experience to the village one of a lifetime! We wanted to feel like locals and visit a traditional place and that was the best choice we could make.

A Nice Evening - I was worried when I saw reviews but we had a lovely evening here. A beautiful village, wonderful people. A mix of traditional and more modern Greek dances, dancers worked hard to entertain. The food was basic Greek fare but really tasty. Best feta and olives I have tried. The red wine was nice enough, usually don’t like or drink it but enjoyed a few glasses. Lots of audience participation encouraged. Our coach was 30 minutes late to collect us which put a damper on the evening to begin with but all ended well.

Poor experience - Good, service and staff excellent! Show was very touristy but ok. Trip was awful! Collected at 1755 and not dropped back at hotel til 0115 am! Had googled things to do In Heraklion so assumed the venue wasn’t too far away! Shoe wad only 2 hrs 40 mins so didn’t expect to spend 4 hrs 40 mins on a bus! Also didn’t see the Cretian village as had to go up a steep hill to the venue and not given enough time to do both. Should say in description that there is a steep hill to climb in case of mobility problems.
