Things to do in Rethymnon, Crete: The Best City Tours
Rethymnon is one of the most well-preserved Venetian old towns on the island of Crete. Its 16th-century buildings are stunning examples of ancient architecture, and the monolithic Fortezza reflects both European and Moorish influences. Explore the magical waterfalls, rock formations, and ‘"cave church" of Saint Anthony Gorge before taking a pleasant evening stroll along the colorful Venetian Harbor. Relax in a taverna over a plate of Cretan meze, like fresh feta drizzled with local olive oil.

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
