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.

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.

Heraklion food tour with Maria - 10!
My partner and I had a wonderful time with Maria. Found places we wouldn't have without her and tasted a few things we wouldn't have tried. Such a lovely woman and such a great city. And the food is amazing
