The tiny island of Spinalonga is just a short hop away from Crete, but a visit is like stepping back in time. Centuries of history are packed within the walls that encircle it. See it through the eyes of a local on this exclusive full day tour, which also takes in two coastal towns on Mirabello Bay. Veta, one of our guides, says, 'You'll visit the pretty fishing village of Elounda and the seaside town of Agios Nikolaos. You'll try some typical Cretan food in a taverna, too.' Spinalonga has been many things throughout its existence, including a Venetian outpost and an Ottoman town. It was even a leper colony, which led to it being dubbed the ‘Isle of Tears'. You'll take a walk with our local guide, who'll lead you along narrow lanes of long-abandoned roofless dwellings and show you around the fortress and the colony, which closed in the 1950s. What's more, you'll beat the crowds by arriving early on the first ferry of the day.

Our first stop is at the village of Kritsa, famous for its long history since the era of the ancient city of LATO until the Ottoman times. The village features the important religious monument of Panagia KERA, which dates back to the 12th century. We continue towards Katharo Plateau (altitude 1200m) through the cypress forest where we see goats, sheep and if we get lucky, we may even witness Cretan vultures in the wild. It is an excellent occasion to take photos of the MIRA A BELO Gulf, a name given by the Venetians and means “beautiful view”. We then move southwards to Selakano forest, which is famous for the unique, high quality honey that is produced there. We will cool off at Sarakina Gorge, a gorge of easy access for all. Photos of this breathtaking landscape will impress your friends. We continue towards the southernmost point in Europe, that is, the fishing village of Myrtos. It is time for a swim, shopping or a cup of tea by the Libyan Sea.

What sets our tour apart? Simple: it’s not a show — it’s real life, the way it’s been lived in Crete for generations. This isn’t a rushed sightseeing checklist. It’s a day stitched together with soul: soap-making with hands that smell like thyme and olive oil, olive groves older than your family tree, raki that bites back (the good kind), and a meal in Archanes that tastes like it was made by your yiayia — if she happened to be a village chef with a wicked sense of humor. Our journey isn’t just about tasting Cretan life — it’s about understanding it. You’ll walk the land, meet the people, and share a table, not with actors, but with farmers, makers, and storytellers. You won’t leave with a fridge magnet; you’ll leave with olive oil under your nails, a new appreciation for rakomelo, and maybe a dance step or two you didn’t plan on learning. This is Crete with the volume turned up. Ready? Book now—cheers to an unforgettable day in Crete!

What sets our tour apart? Simple: it’s not a show — it’s real life, the way it’s been lived in Crete for generations. This isn’t a rushed sightseeing checklist. It’s a day stitched together with soul: soap-making with hands that smell like thyme and olive oil, olive groves older than your family tree, raki that bites back (the good kind), and a meal in Archanes that tastes like it was made by your yiayia — if she happened to be a village chef with a wicked sense of humor. Our journey isn’t just about tasting Cretan life — it’s about understanding it. You’ll walk the land, meet the people, and share a table, not with actors, but with farmers, makers, and storytellers. You won’t leave with a fridge magnet; you’ll leave with olive oil under your nails, a new appreciation for rakomelo, and maybe a dance step or two you didn’t plan on learning. This is Crete with the volume turned up. Ready? Book now—cheers to an unforgettable day in Crete!
