More time is needed in Acropolis Delphi and Dion, the museum of the Acropolis was not on the itinerary which is a shame especially that there was not free time to see it by ourself

We were picked up from Heriklion and taken to our hotel. Hotel was good, my only comment is that we would have preferred to pay a little extra and gone all inclusive as we could only have food in the evening meal which also included water that we had to pay for. Trip to knossos was very informative and ticket was also valid for the museum in Heraklion, which we visited in the afternoon. The safari trip was fantastic. Jason our guide was funny and knowledgable. We learnt a lot about the villages in the mountains, saw the sunken village, visited a goat herder and watched cheese being made then tried them with raki. Amazing Day especially travelling on the roads up the mountains. Very good value for money.

Our guides Anastasia, Nikos, and Antonio were absolutely fantastic. The tour itself was very informative, awe-inspiring, and well-paced. The accommodations overall were top-rated and extremely comfortable. Every day, we felt personally connected and well taken care of by the guides and group. We would definitely book with Europamundo again
