Chania 8-Day Tours and Trips

Walking in Crete has a great range of walks. Our leader Panagiotis was knowledgeable, cheerful, adaptable and gave us a really good experience. He gave good restaurant recommendations and took account of the different walking needs of the group.

The hikes were a little more difficult than we expected and I suffered a knee injury. The guide looked after all my needs to continue the tour and not miss out on too much. Overall an unforgettable experience, in a good way.

A Really good trip. Weather was bad at the start of the trip and we missed one of the walks. Itinerary had to be changed around our Guide Smaro was great and looked after everyone. Crete was amazing and food was piled high, A salad could be a main meal at the size of it. A great Holiday with a good group.

The 3 main hikes were great. The Samaria Gorge, the coastal walk and the Zaros Gorge were excellent. We would have struggled with the logistics of doing them if we weren’t on an organised tour. There was just that one day as I mentioned earlier that another activity option would have been welcome .

The trip was well run and our guide was excellent. The walks were more challenging than we thought they would be. The itinerary suggests that some are leisurely hikes - not so! It also suggests that on one of the days we walk on a pebbled path- not so! We actually climbed over huge rocks on a steep ledge with a sheer drop to the right. It was more challenging than the itinerary suggests. However the trip was brilliant as we had total faith in our guide. Perhaps you could give clearer explanations .

The walking and accommodation were excellent. The staff at the hotels were brilliant. Only improvement would be to give distances between each turning point rather than just approximate times. Most people have GPS devices which give accurate distances.
