Excellent trip. The last trip I did with Explore was 30 years ago. I am recently retired and decided to join a small walking group . Used Explore again and was not disappointed. Excellent team in London. Guide professional, knowledgable , super safety conscious and sociable as I would have expected. Walking terrain in Crete is quite challenging but thanks to our guide we all managed to complete our hikes. Great group of people too!

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 .
