I don't have a memorable experience as we didn't end up going. An email was sent to us stating the pick up point 2 days before the event. We turned up in plenty of time. No bus. We rang and were told that the pick up point was actually across the road and therefore we had missed the bus. We were told we could get a taxi! We sent a screen shot to a WhatsApp number verifying the pick up point we had, no response. Messaged again, no response. Very disappointed to say the least.

It was a great trip to both Knossos and Heraklion. The guide was really informative, we had a good amount of time at both locations, and I would definitely recommend this trip.

Very well organised, tour guide was amazing and very informative. 4 hours of free time in Heraklion, just enough time to visit the museum and have a good look round Heraklion, and 2 hours in Knossos.
