Notre guide, Nasos, a organisé une super journée. Départ de La Canée en 4x4, arrêt à Balos pour voir le lagon d'en haut, ensuite direction Falassarna pour 3h de détente avec un bain de soleil réservé proche de l'eau. Très bon repas ensuite au restaurant de la plage. Nasos a su animer le trajet, il nous a raconté beaucoup d'anecdotes sur le pays et ses coutumes. Très bonne expérience, nous recommandons ????

This is the best way to take in Crete and all its history and beauty. Our guide Vassilis took the best care of us!! He was so full of knowledge, took us to the best places, and knew the perfect spots for the most gorgeous views. Feeding the goats was a huge hit for our family. Swimming at Falassarna followed by one of the most delicious meals was truly unforgettable. Cannot recommend this tour enough. I learned so much and am leaving with an appreciation for Crete that already has me thinking of when I can return. Thank you Chania Adventures!

The Birds Eye view of Balos was unbelievable. Wow. Nothing like the pictures we had seen - stunning. Dimitri was full of historical knowledge and Falassarna was an experience or it’s own!
