  • Sofoklis Venizelos Square, Chania 731 32, Greece
  • The Palace of Knossos, Knosos, Greece
    Knossos is the site of the most important and better-known palace of Minoan civilization. According to tradition, it was the seat of the legendary king Minos. The Palace is also connected with thrilling legends, such as the myth of the Labyrinth with the Minotaur and the story of Daedalus and Icarus. The site was continuously inhabited from the Neolithic period (7000- 3000 B.C.) until Roman times. After its partial destruction in 1450 B.C., Knossos was settled by Mycenaeans from the Greek Mainland. The city flourished again during the Hellenistic period in 67 B.C. It was captured by the Roman Quintus Caecilius Metelus Creticus. Knossos was discovered in 1878 by Minos Kalokairinos. Arthur Evans conducted systematic excavations at the site between 1900 and 1931, bringing to light the palace, a large section of the Minoan city, and the cemeteries. The restoration of the palace to its present form was carried out by Arthur Evans.

This was a wonderful well organized tour and our tour guide was very knowledgeable and interesting. One of the highlights of our time on Crete.

It was beyond hot. But I couldn’t hear our guide. They gave us these headsets but due to over crowding and pushing. We never could stay together. Other groups would ask our guide to follow along with us which she allowed or they would push us out of the way. Easily went though my water bottle. They should go when the crises aren’t there next time
