The whole trip was excellent, Crete is a beautiful island. We excursions that were booked for us were great. The tour of seven villages ended being a private tour for the four of us and our driver/guide Nikos was excellent. We quite enjoyed the Trip Imbros Gorge, an amazing place to walk. It was unfortunate that our trip to the Samaria Gorge was cancelled but greatly appreciated Lea’s prompt notification of this and the alternatives she provided to us. All and all the trip was great as was KimKim’s help.

It was a very interesting excursion where we learned about the local way of producing olive oil, Raki etc. The countryside was beautiful which we would not have seen if we had not gone on the excursion.

Dianne, thank you for your lovely feedback! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed your time in Crete, especially the village tour with Nikos, your walk through Imbros Gorge, and your hotel accommodations. Lea and I loved helping to plan and book your trip, and I hope we can assist you in the future with a return visit to hike the Samaria Gorge! 🙌🇬🇷
