Exploring Crete

Excellent and detailed guided tours of the important sites in Crete from Neolithic through Byzantine times. Fine dining with emphasis on local Cretan ingredients and staying mostly in unique boutique hotels.

Extremely helpful in providing alternate meals for special diet needs. Personally made arrangements to for COVID testing requirements of entry and exit, which would have been awkward to try to do yourself.

The holiday arrangements were top notch. The hotel was excellent and in a perfect location, The guides both came from Athens and knew the city and region extremely well. Furthermore, they were both experts, one in the field of classical Greece and the other in Byzantine architecture. We could not have had a better team.
