Discover the seaside village of Elounda and walk amongst history on the island of Spinalonga. Finishing our touring on this much afflicted place, we head for the small bay of Kolokitha. It’s one of the most beautiful beaches on Crete. It is a remote beach with white sand and deep blue serene water, side by side with old olive groves. There we can swim and taste the delicious BBQ served on the boat. After our short respite, we go back to Elounda. Then we move to the picturesque town of Agios Nikolaos, where we have our last stop. We have the chance to enjoy our coffee getting a perfect view of the magnificent lake, do our shopping in the traditional local shops and relax for a while before we hit the road for our going back.

A really nice experience, well organised and planned. Ingrid was super helpful amd gave us a lot of good information on the way. The trip took us through some traditional Cretan villages and as a nice bonus, we also stopped at the cave of Agia Sofia on the way back - good stop for those with an interest in local myths and good views! The beach itself was beautiful, there was ample time to spend - at least 4 hours. Also, as a side note: the tour company was very quick to answer my questions amd reassure my concerns. Thank you, guys, for a really nice experience in Crete!

Adonius met us 15 minutes before the scheduled show time. The van was clean, spacious for six adults, and very comfortable for the ride to Knossos (2 hours away). The archaeologist, Irene, who was contracted as our tour guide was very knowledgeable and able to answer technical questions at both the Palace and Museum. We had a brief snack in Heraklion in the Venician Quarter before we returned. We were back at the dock slightly ahead of the eight hours contracted & were able to have dinner on our ship. FAR BETTER THAN A CRUISE EXCURSION, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Less expensive, more comfortable and a better guide

We rented a car from that agency. The guy at the desk was very friendly and helpful. The price for the car was fair, so there is nothing to complain at all. Everything was smooth and easy. If you stay in that area, I recommend to rent the car or book a trip with Status MLB.

We had a great experience with the Knossos Palace and Zeus Cave tour. Alexander was our guide. He has a pleasant personality and is very knowledgeable regarding Crete history. During our visit of Knossos Palace we were guided by Maria who was also very pleasant and knowledgeable. The restaurant near Zeus cave suggested to us for lunch served tasty food combined with an amazing view. The communication with the agency was perfect and it was no issue to shift the date of the experience due to bad weather on the originally booked day (however, I expect this would be more difficult during the main season). The tour is certainly worth the money and especially in these times a private tour feels more comfortable compared to large group events. There was no discussion for Alexander and us to always wear our masks while in the car together which was much appreciated considering that not all drivers or waiters on Crete wear their masks all the time. In total this was a highly recommendable experience we would certainly book again during our next visit to Crete.
