5.00Elena was an amazing guide so full of life and laughter we could not praise her enough. The company was also amazing despite changes to our docking plans nothing was too much trouble for them. The tour itself was better than advertised we thought it would be just snacks but there was so much different food and salads that we were pleasently surprised. The tour comprises both history and food tasting and we could not praise it enough if you ever get to chania in crete then book this tour
Fun time!

5.00Great tour! Jannis was very knowledgeable and kind as he walked us through the town. It was very hot that day, so we made sure to have water. The sit-down with Jannis in a small quiet courtyard on the final leg of our tour was the best part. We just said like old friends and talked about everything while eating amazing food and drinking wine. His knowledge about Greek history, politics was fascinating, which made it even more engaging; particularly if you also have historical knowledge and can discuss on an equal level. Super fun and would high recommend it.

5.00We always like to learn a little about the main place for our holiday- this time it is Chania in Crete and we chose a walking tour with food tasting for a change and it was a lovely 4 hours ending in lunch with our excellent & friendly guide Andonis. We met at an easy to find location, warmly welcomed and dived straightaway into local delicacies , sweet and savoury and then a visit to a deli to sample cheeses and olives. Meandering through pretty side streets we learnt the importance of 1913 & Venetian architecture - sounds deep but it was fun in the way our guide conveyed it. Adonis helped us to locate key places to visit in the West of Crete and it is clear he loves his Island and his heritage. A well worth it trip money wise and from a getting to grips with Crete too! Don’t hesitate just book.
Adonis was a terrific...

5.00Adonis was a terrific guide. I was originally told that we would be walking through the Jewish quarter, but when the tour ended, he just told us where it was & we could go there on our own.
