Brilliant tour of WWII battle sites - I have been travelling to Crete for more than 20 years and I'm familiar with the 1941 Battle of Crete. But my tour with Apostolis was an eye opener in so many different ways. He's not just a guide spouting the same old tired lines but a historian for whom the battle is his passion and that came across. I learned many new things about the battle and the Cretan resistance that followed. His knowledge and eloquence was such that I ended up recording a 50-minute programme with him for Radio New Zealand. I would definitely recommend Proper Cretan Guide. I will be booking his tours again in the future.

Battlefield tour Chania region - Operation Mercury - We had the pleasure of doing a full day battlefield excursion with Apostolis as our guide. After being picked up our hotel we drove directly to the Maleme airfield for the first stop of the day. The main focus of the tour is the invasion day of 20th of May 1941 and the following days in the Chania battle sector. After Maleme, we visited the German war cemetery, the Patanias bunker museum, the village of Galatas, where ferocious close combat action took place in the streets, Prison valley, bay of Souda, the Commonwealth war cemetery in Souda bay and 42nd street where the famous counterattack by the New Zealander’s took place. Apostolis with grades in history and archology is very knowable about the subject and is more or less the perfect companion if you consider to do a serious battlefield study of the battle for Crete 1941. All in all an very interesting day, Highly recommended for war history buffs or if you have ancestors of those whom served on both sides of this tragic event in history.
