5.00Apostolis is a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. He personalized my tour to my interests and existing knowledge level and taught me a lot about the battle of Crete as well as Cretan and Greek culture and history. I highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in learning about the Battle of Crete, regardless of existing knowledge level.

5.00Great private tour. Nice new car. Our guide Apostolis was a history major who was very knowledgeable about WW2 and the battle of Crete and took us to all the important places. He picked us up from the cruise ship right on time. We were able to tailor the tour to our own wishes Annick and Lily

5.00Apostles arrived at our hotel to pick us up and drove us on an epic adventure. My teenager loves WW2 history and they had many informative conversations together. We made many stops. We had bathroom breaks and a light lunch break. I enjoyed the historical stories that Apostles had to tell. The historical sites and cemeteries were wonderful places to visit. We spent 6 hours on the tour on a beautiful day. I would recommend this tour for anyone who has an interest in the history of Crete during WW2. If you are a WW2 fan, you really must go if you are in Crete.
Excellent tour analysing WW2 Battle of Crete

5.00I have previously done a few WW2 tours of places like Normandy, Bastogne and Arnhem, and was super keen to find a guide who could provide a detailed tour of the Battle of Crete while I was on holiday here. Fortunately I found Apostolis. I informed him before the tour that I wanted to come away from the day with a detailed understanding of how the Allies somehow managed to lose this battle. For context, the Germans thought there were only 5,000 allied soldiers on the island rather than the actual 40,000, took huge casualties on Day 1 as they fell from the sky on a windy day, and faced stiff resistance from the locals which they didn’t expect. But somehow still managed to win. Apostolis provided an outstanding detailed overview of how the battle unfolded and key moments including the unnecessary loss of Hill 107. Also fantastic detail on the German reprisals/war crimes on the island which I wasn’t previously aware of. 100% recommended for anybody interested in one of the key European theatre battles of WW2.
A one of a kind tour of WWII

5.00Apostolis, a proper Cretan guide, poured incredible energy and lifelong passion into a highly informative WWII history tour of Chania, taking extra time to ensure I saw a full range of sites like the stunning German cemetery and Suda Bay. He matched 85-year-old Battle of Crete photos to exact viewpoints, revealing bullet holes that pierced steel "like butter"—truly eye-opening! I highly recommend Apostolis!

5.00Apostolis showcased an impresive breadth and depth about the subject of WW2 Battle of Crete. With combined knowledge, oral presentation, maps and pictures we acquired good understanding of events and circumstances at the many stops of the tour. We highly recommend this tour to the visitor with interest in WW2 and Battle of Crete. Mr & Mrs Koivisto, Sweden

5.00We took the WW2 tour with Apostolis (“Proper Cretan Guide”). What a fantastic day it was! We visited many different sites during the six hour tour. He was very knowledgable and we had a thoroughly engaging time with him. Highly recommend booking with him. When we return to Crete we will definitely book one of his other tours.

5.00Apostolis is incredibly knowledgeable and a great story teller! He not only shared the Crete WWII history but also shared about Crete culture and food. He was a pleasure to spend the day with.
