Reviews
Highlights include; Cave of Zeus, Knossos Palace, Pottery workshop and craft shop, Lunch in traditional Greek restaurant, 2000 year old Sycamore tree & visit to a Cretan church.
Our tour guide and driver Alexander was so informative & knowledgable. He had a brilliant sense of humour and had us in stitches for the journey! The car journey was so pleasant and he made our day so enjoyable.
Our private guide of Knossos, Maria was an expert in Greek history & mythology. My daughters were fascinated by her tales of Greek mythology eg Icarus & Daedalus, The Minotaur, Zeus.
“Mythical Escape” is money well spent & I cannot recommend it highly enough! Thank you!
The communication with the agency was perfect and it was no issue to shift the date of the experience due to bad weather on the originally booked day (however, I expect this would be more difficult during the main season).
The tour is certainly worth the money and especially in these times a private tour feels more comfortable compared to large group events. There was no discussion for Alexander and us to always wear our masks while in the car together which was much appreciated considering that not all drivers or waiters on Crete wear their masks all the time.
In total this was a highly recommendable experience we would certainly book again during our next visit to Crete.
