Very nice experience - Very good experience with Michel. We spent 3 days very pleasant discovering the Crete. He knew how to make us a program adapted to the whole family and our desires and we could thanks to him discover small restaurants with Cretan specialties away from the tourist crowd. Michel was an exceptional Guide, always in a good mood, attentive, caring and at the top with children. We highly recommend it and will call on it again if we return to Crete 😊

A must-see in Crete! (in French as well) ;-) - An essential for Crete!!! An extraordinary moment of sharing with Michalis who accompanied us to the Deep Ridge. Anecdotes, explanations, an immersion in the heart of rural villages, in sumptuous panoramas at the end of completely “off-road” paths but not for Michalis! Everything we expected from an outing with a guide but better!

Wonderful day - We had the chance to go on a 4X4 outing with Michel for one day! A privilege to discover the ridge outside the tourist side of the Coast and to immerse oneself in the mountain, the cultures of Oranges, avocados.... Michel knows the region so well that he transmits to us the culture, the history, the anecdotes ! At lunchtime, a meal was prepared for us in a small village restaurant...a Cretan culinary treat where all the specialties were offered to us! In short...go there with your eyes closed...or rather wide open, it's so beautiful!!!

Beach Days, History, Good Food, Wine and Olive Oil - Michel was an outstanding guide! We could not have had a better time in Crete because of all he shared with us. Not only did we see beautiful beaches, villages, churches, museums, but Michel shared so much of his culture and family traditions with us...we felt as though we had known him forever after just 2 days! We took my mom, who is half Greek, for her 75th birthday and she was able to ask him everything and anything about her own culture and upbringing and relate on a different level. It was incredibly special for her. And the food! The special baked goods Michel would bring each morning were such a great treat as were all the Cretan specialties he told us about. Thank you for such a wonderful trip!

Outstanding Service & hospitality! - I had the pleasure of meeting Michael of Crete Private Guide this summer while filming season 6 of Star Foodies (the TV series) in Chania Crete. The experience was outstanding, fun and comfortable from start to finish. Michael exceeded my expectations with his 5 star service, professionalism, and his expertise ranging from food, to nature, historical sights and agriculture and more. Michael was there for anything I needed and beyond. He is always prompt, joyous to be around has a large network of people, places & things to introduce you to. He is always prompt and making suggestions and recommendations to better your experience and make your trip more comfortable, even getting behind the camera to take a snapshot of you when you need it! Remember your guide can make or break you trip so choose wisely. Literally, all you need in Crete is Michael!

Amazing tour, highly recommended! - We had amazing tour today with Michael. I was on a Disney cruise with my daughter and we did a custom private tour for 4 hours. The company was very responsive and easy to deal with from start to finish. He took us to orange and avocado farms, beautiful lakes, and gorges, and small villages, where we had one of the best lunches of our lives. Michael was friendly and told us a lot about the island and Greece in general. I highly recommend using this company.
