I honestly cannot think of enough wonderful things to say both about our local specialist, Chris and the company as a whole. From the beginning stages of planning all the way up until the end, everything was smooth and seamless. Chris was extremely knowledgeable and very easy to speak with and always prompt with his responses. The trip was tailored perfectly to our likes/interests. It's truly hard to pinpoint a specific 'favorite' from the trip, as there were so many great moments. If I had to choose a few, I'd say the cooking class in Vamos is an absolute must. The atmosphere was so unique, the food delicious and the instructor, Mrs. Koula was very warm and inviting. Another highlight was the Jeep Safari from Rethymno to Prevali beach. It was so enjoyable to go 'off the beaten path' to smaller villages in the mountains and to a very private, beautiful beach. Dionysus, our guide, was a lot of fun and had great information to share with us!
All of our accommodations were centrally located, which was so great as we ended up walking most everywhere. Speaking of walking......we did A LOT of that but I wouldn't have wanted it any other way as it took us to some places that we likely wouldn't have ended up at otherwise. All of the tour guides we had were exceptional; very knowledgeable and friendly. The preset transfers were convenient and very prompt. All of the extra recommendations given by the company (restaurants, neighborhoods, sights, etc) were an added bonus.
Overall, I cannot recommend this company enough! If you're thinking about planning a trip, don't hesitate to reach out to them!!
Hotel Reviews
Excellent location
very well kept boutique hotel!
This hotel was wonderfully located. So quaint and quiet.
we literally only slept here so I can't speak to much about the hotel. It was sufficient for what was needed.
Hotel was very unique, cave-like hotel. Took a bit to adjust to the very little natural light, however, really loved the quirkiness of it!
Activity Reviews
The uniqueness of this class was incredible. The setting was located in an old Olive Mill. The cook was very warm and inviting. The food - SCRUMPTIOUS!!
going 'off the beaten path' was so interesting - getting to see what life is like in small villages in the mountains was fantastic.
