For anyone holidaying in the Agios Nikolaos area, I would really recommend this tour. We happily spent the day bouncing along in the TD5 Land Rover (named Spartacus') along all the narrow, bumpy, off-road tracks that you travel along into the mountains and around the Lasithi plateau, with Geoff, our fantastic guide/driver and six other 'explorers'.
This tour enables you to see a small part of the 'real' Crete, away from all the usual 'touristy' areas that you wouldn't be able to access with a 'hire' car.
Fantastic scenery and views of the local flora and fauna, yes, but what really made the tour for us was Geoff: His continuous commentary throughout the day relaying all the factual information that as a tourist you want, mixed with his great sense of humour. Throw in a fabulous lunch including local wine and raki: Perfect!!

Die Tour war ein voller Erfolg!! So tolle Aussichten und herzige kleine Dörfer, die nicht völlig von Touristen bevölkert waren! Auch die süssen Tavernen wo wir eingekehrt sind um lokale Köstlichkeiten zu testen und zu essen waren absolut sensationell!! Unser Guide Ruud hatte viele zusätzliche Informationen zu bieten und dies auf eine sehr humorvolle Art und Weise :) Würde sofort wieder eine Tour buchen!!
