Our guide Akrivi was fantastic, couldn’t ask for better. Her knowledge and insights into the history of Knossos made our time there so much greater than what we imagined. Knossos itself is gorgeous and amazing on its own but it’s a 100% more enjoyable with a friendly and knowledgeable guide, like Akrivi to put everything you are seeing into context.

Perfect length for a thorough visit to the site. Our guide helped us understand what was in front of us while making sure we also could put the site in context with the history of Greece overall.

Akrivi really brought Knossos and Minoan society to life for us. She was knowledgeable and very friendly. I felt that I came away with a much better understanding of the palace than I could have achieved on my own. I would highly recommend Akrivi as a guide. It was absolutely time well spent.

First visit for us in Knossos and we chose to visit the site with a private guide. It was just perfect, to do without hesitation. Easy to find guide, no queue to buy tickets, warm Welcoming,.... We discovered a lot thanks to Akrivi’s comments, who managed to captivate our two teenagers. I think that without his comments and explanations, we would have missed a lot of interesting things. Very complete and private visit therefore adapted. We would like to thank Akrivi for this wonderful visit and congratulate her on her perfect French.

Beautiful visit with Akrivi! In impeccable French, she passionated the whole family. Between mythology and history while finishing with a nice philosophical touch... Not inconsiderable, Akrivi makes sure that the visit goes as pleasantly as possible. Choosing the best seats in the shade, the best angle to take pictures... she even asks the people around us to make less noise so that we can hear her explanations. Thanks to her! Cap, drinks and sunscreen to go (few places in the shade)
