Great time - Our tour guide was an archaeologist. She was so informative. Our favorite part of the tour was the museum. I highly recommend this tour.

Super guide 💕 - We had a great guide. Her name was Katarina.. probably spelled wrong…
She was SO knowledgeable and interesting to listen to. She did an amazing job and was SO caring and kind to the people who needed a little help. She made our day ! Thank you! Learned so much from her about Greece.

Very tiring, too much travelling and not enough time at Knosif - Very long journey to get there. We stopped at a cafe for breakfast but there wasn't enough time to order eat and go to the toilet. This was,supposed to be a trip to Knosos but we had less than one hour to look round the guide was very knowledgeable but badly organised and we were rushed round the site. We then were given 3 hours in Heraklion and we chose to go to the museum but the guide was rushing through it so we looked on our own. We should have had more time at Knosos and less at Heraklion. We were then taken to Rethymno which was beautiful but given only one hour and by the time we had a drink it was time to go back to the bus. Again it was a shame we weren't given more time here than Heraklion.. the trip was supposed be 8 hours and it was actually 11.5 hours. All in all it was very disappointing
