Reviews: Day Trip to Agios Nikolaos and Spinalonga Island
Guest User2024-10-06
We done this trip on 3rd October with Altino Travel Services. A short journey from Hersonissos to our first stop at the coastal city of Agios Nikolaos. We visited a few souvenir shops on route to view the lake from above. Then walked down to the harbour and finished off with the statue of Zeus. AN is much less touristy than Heraklion and Chania and a real treasure. Then a short drive up to the small village of Elounda for some lunch before the boat journey over to Spinalonga Island. Our Lady Guide (didn't get her name) was fantastic, gave great insight to the places visited and the Island of Crete in general. She spoke perfect English and French and was great fun. Spinalonga Island is a must visit for those interested in culture and history. We first done the boat around the island then disembarked for 1.5 hours to explore. You can easily walk around the base of the island in a hour. It is a little bit hilly in places but nothing too difficult. For those who want to see the upper part of the island and take in the best views you need to take a lot of steps or slopes so need to be quite fit. On the way back to Elounda, some of the group were able to take a swim around the boat in the shallow and clear waters. We then headed back late afternoon. The trip was around 9 hours overall and great value.

What a great day out, unfortunately due to the wind we couldn’t go to Dia so we sailed to another cove, it was a great spot for swimming. The crew and the food were excellent. Do yourself a favour and book this tour
Reviews: Heraklion: Matala & Zaros Hidden Treasures Day Trip
Guest User2025-10-03
our tour guide Magda was just amazing, so welcoming and informative. both Magda and our driver made the whole experience very personal, we felt very lucky to be the only ones on the tour. the lake at Zaros was beautiful and very peaceful as we arrived early before it got busy, all the staff in the cafe were friendly and the coffee was great. we then travelled to Phaistos, well worth a visit if you enjoy archeology in it's pure form. Then on to Matala where we browsed the many fabulous shops and enjoyed lunch at The Petra & Votsalo recommended by our driver, food was amazing. Big thank you to Magda and our driver for a fabulous day.
Reviews: Crete: Knossos Palace Entry Ticket with Optional Audio Guide

Based on mixed reviews, I was skeptical about whether the entrance fee was worth it. But I have to say, it's very impressive, and I'm glad we visited Knossos. I can only recommend it to everyone.
