Excellent and engaging guide!!
My whole family ages 24-65 enjoyed Eleni’s tour of Knosos and the Archeological Museum of Crete. She knows her history - not only of the ancients of Crete, but of other civilizations across the timeline. She is a good storyteller though and kept us all engaged and interested.

Great range of food shops and restaurants
We had a great time touring food shops and restaurants with Eftihia and tasting Cretan cuisine. There was a good range of types of food and we enjoyed the variety and meeting the shop owners. Very worthwhile tour. Thank you

Ein Tag wie man ihn selten hat :)
Alex ist sehr bemüht und probiert von Anfang an eine Verbindung herzustellen (erfolgreich), erklärt nicht nur das Essen sondern auch den Hintergrund zu jeder Speise. Von Vorspeise bis Finale ein unglaubliches Erlebnis dass einen tollen gemütlichen Ausklang. Aufjedenfall zu Empfehlen!

Amazing Food-Tour Heraklion
We had an amazing food tour in Heraklion! Our guide Eftihia was absolutely wonderful – very attentive and caring throughout the entire experience. She went above and beyond our expectations, paying attention to every detail and making sure our wishes were taken into account. Thanks to her, we not only enjoyed delicious food but also felt truly welcomed and looked after. Highly recommended!

Eleni was a great hostess for our food tour. She was very knowledgeable about the food and its preparation, taking us to well established and locally supported venues.
Her knowledge of the area and the history of Crete were very important in making the experience exceptional.
A lovely person with a joyful and charming personality.

Informative tour, friendly guide
Really enjoyed our time exploring the Palace of Knossos. Eleni was very nice and knowledgeable about the ruins. She was also patient and accommodating with our kids who were struggling with the heat. Highly recommend.
