I went to 2 tours, one with Georgos at Lasitki Plateau and one with Nikos, at Vai Beach & Toplu Monastery. Both were nice escapes when i had occasion to discover multicultural layers of Greek nature, geography and traditions. I like Giorgios for his rnthusiasm and pasion about life style, animals, outdoor trips.
While Nikos fascinated us with his wide knowledge about bothanics, history, fluency in many languages and curiosity to learn from us but also share his valuable insights.
So i had very agreable trips with nice, kind and educated guides. ????

We hesitated whether to go on the jeep safari with safari.gr but lucky we went. We started from Agios Nicolaos and went directly high to the mountains. We stopped at the tiny village of Krista. Real, cozy, quiet Greek village. W have tasted a real Greek coffee nothing like in the hotels of the seaside. Than higher and higher following off road steep trail. Our driver and the guide Geoff the Englishman on permanent residence in Crete did a great job – thank you Geoff for a safe ride and interesting stories of the history and culture of Crete. He showed as a completely different Crete – high mountain region, and this was exactly what we expected. Beautiful highland nature, unique culture and views. We stopped on Lassiti plateau for a lunch with Greek cuisine. Altogether a nice day and unforgettable experience. Thank you safari.gr !
