Professorial quality presentation - We were fascinated by the narrative provided by our most informative and passionate guide. AKRIVI was our guide. Her level of knowledge and professorial presentation skill is exceptional and amazing. The description of information was presented as a narrative story with phenomenal detail. This tour provided the perspective of history and mythology of the Minoan Civilization capturing and exceeding my wildest expectations. I have had fascination with the Minoan Civilization as my Papou was born in Santorini. Thank you for spurring further fascination and desire to do my own further research and reading.

The Magic of Mythology at Knossos - We enjoyed touring the Knossos Palace with our wonderful guide, Akrivi. She was so knowledgeable about the site and the history and the Greek mythology - a gifted story telling who brought the ruins to life. She seemed to love her job and her enthusiasm was truly enjoyable. We followed up our tour with a visit to the Archaeological Museum in Heraklion where we saw some of the original pieces from Knossos. After seeing the reproductions at the palace, that was a delight. A great tour! Well done, Akrivi!

Great tour with lots of information - Our guide Katarina was very informative & spoke clearly. We had no problem taking the local bus to/from the meeting point at the archeological site & the guided tour started on time. A later visit to the Heraklion Archeological Museum by ourselves complemented the tour perfectly.

More than just a palace - Our guide was excellent and gave us so much information about the site and local history that isn't available to those opting for general admission. Not the cheapest option but well worth the additional cost to fully appreciate the story of Crete.

Worth the tour & skip the line option! - Our tour guide Katerina was so knowledgeable, fun, and made a real effort to appeal to both the adults in the group, like my friends and I, as well as to the families who had brought their tween/teen kids. It was very informative
