Would give more than 5/5 if I could - We had an absolute fantastic time on our first trip to the white mountains with Louise on Sunday. We were picked up from our hotel and Louise made us feel instantly welcome and excited for the day we were about to have. She was so knowledgeable about the island of Crete telling us lots about the island and always saying if we have any questions she is happy to answer them. The whole experience was absolutely fantastic but the trip up to the top of the while mountains is something I would definitely recommend. The views are absolutely spectacular, the food was lovely and the drive was comfortable we felt safe with Louise driving. Thank you again for a fantastic day. Such an amazing was to see the island and how the locals live.

Fantastic tour with driver Arist in Discovery Land Rover 6-person tour of White Mtns, shepherd’s farm, and lunch. - Our driver Aris was very skilled/safe driver native of Chania, great knowledge of all things Crete. We had a 6-guest jeep with 3 jeeps traveling together tour of White Mtns, villages, Shepherds farm, and lunch. The views were amazing. All was excellent and very glad to be in 6-passenger group in Discovery Land Rover, much more comfortable than the safari model we saw in larger group tour. Lunch was excellent, smaller group (not booked thru cruise ship) was better. We booked thru Shoreexcursions.com, very pleased with price and service.

Loved our White Mountains tour! - Jason was our guide and he did a fantastic job. He was an excellent driver and took great care of us, offering to stop and let us take photos and answering any questions we had. He was funny and engaging and we enjoyed the tour much more than we expected to. The views from the mountains were incredible and the shepard’s hut was fascinating. The drive was rough so if you have mobility issues it wouldn’t be for you, but Jason kept us safe and secure. Highly recommended!

Beautiful safari - Very nice trip to the mountains and to a secluded shepherd's hut. Very good guide, only in English. Beautiful villages visited with rich architecture. Also the lunch in a small local restaurant was definitely worth it.
