Our visit to Crete was definitely our Top 3 Hiking Tours (Mt Blanc and Portugal are runners up). The people are wonderful the food amazing. Fantastic routes and weather .
Great trip, a very varied trail which goes point to point across the south of the island so you get a sense of achievement whilst experiencing coastline and unspoilt villages in the interior. Excellent guide who is very knowledgeable passionate about the island, local guides make all the difference and Spiros is one of the best. Great food and time to swim and relax as well as full days of walking. Be prepared to walk the distances on this trip, it's not technically difficult but get used to walking this far before you go.

Perfect mix of cycling, culture and cuisine. It was a nice group of people.
Tour leader, Paul was very friendly and knowledgable about culture and history.
Most accommodation had pools - so plenty of opportunities to relax.
The afternoon with our own private boat was great fun, and so were the mudbaths and hammam.
Hills most days, but scenic descents and great views - always the option of the backup vehicle, if needed a break.

Would highly recommend this trip. It provides great variety in scenery, beginning in the very hilly area around the base of Mt Olympus; down into lovely valleys and then stunning coastal scenery. We found the written directions to be excellent while the red and white track markers gave us lots of help as well. We were very impressed with Mehmet who kept in contact with us at the end of each day.

You will be amazed by the diversity and beauty of the area. Under expert guidance you will discover the fauna and flora of this landscape and rich history evidenced by the Roman and Greek excavations at Argamum.

We had the best time on the Greek Caique Cruise. The itinerary was fantastic and Thanos knew everything and everyone. We swam off the boat every day and when we docked in various ports Thanos was able to point us to the best places to go, organise taxis for us if necessary and in the evening recommend the best restaurants.
