Much of the old town district of Chania was developed around its harbor, which was built by the Venetians during the 14th century. Its lighthouse still proudly overlooks the Mediterranean. Here you’ll find several cinemas and historical attractions like the Archaeological Museum, a collection of Minoan and Roman artifacts that’s housed in the former Monastery of Saint Francis. Word nerds will especially enjoy the Museum of Typography.

An unexplored part of Chania's Old city, is Splantzia. A beautiful area filled with historical monuments mostly from the Turkish period. You will love the graphical narrow alleys far away from the crowed streets of the harbour. Furthermore, passing the exterior of the venetian walls, you will enjoy the sandy beach of Kum Kapi area, filled with cafe-bars.

We really had a great tour with Chris who knew all the secret spots as a true local. He was very friendly and also helped with other local tips. We would never have found all the narrow beautiful streets on our own and it was so fun on the Segway!

We travel extensively around the world and regardless of where we end up, one thing that we generally always do is look for a great small business that offers up Segway tours. It is an excellent way to see a lot of the local atmosphere, scenery, history and most importantly areas that you want to come back to and explore further at a later time - including some great local restaurants, cafes, watering holes, etc. Our small group tour with Chania Segway Tours did NOT disappoint. We had an excellent experience for a half-day tour and we were able to cover a very large area of old Chania Town and the Harbour Front. So many great places, and our guide was fantastic at telling us the history of this wonderful island. If you are looking for something different to do, then this is a MUST-DO. Go online, and book it, you won't regret the experience. #IslandHopperz #traveltheworld #nomadicadventures #wanderlust
