* This tour requires at least one of the following per booking: Adult, Senior
Our first stop is the Monastery of Kera. It is dedicated to Virgin Mary; it is run by nuns and is locally known as Little Lourdes.
After we visit the Greek Mythology Park, where we learn all about myths and civilization of ancient Greeks.
Then we drive south and reach the Plateau of Lassithi. The Plateau is a wonderfully cool and fertile area where you will see small towns and a very warm welcome.
While crossing the villages of the Plateau, we pay a short visit at a traditional pottery factory, seeing an ancient ceramic art, which completes today more than 8.000 years of history.
Last but not least we will visit the most famous and popular of all the attractions in Crete, the Palace of Knossos. Join your expert guide on a journey back of 5000 years into myths and legends and learn secrets of the oldest civilization in Europe, the Minoan. Enjoy a guided tour of the historical site with 1.300 rooms, hear all about the legendary labyrinth and the Minotaur.

This was a great trip where you get to see and experience lots of Crete. All the staff were excellent, especially Nectarios who was a wonderful and informative guide. We loved the cave of Zeus and the donkeys and Knossos. The lunch is amazing- there is limited choice for vegetarians but what we had was very tasty and made with fresh vegetables.
One thing to note is that the money paid when booking is only to cover the coach- there are further charges which are made clear when booking but make sure you have cash ready.

We thoroughly enjoyed both our trips with Eye travel and really appreciated your prompt and helpful responses to our questions before we booked. The coaches arrived promptly and both guides gave us a wonderful commentary. Everything and everyone was very efficient and welcoming. The tours themselves gave us a good contrast and enabled us to see quite a lot of the island, and ran well to time, yet we hardly ever felt rushed.
Lesithi & Knossos;- We liked the short, frequent stops in Lesithi plains, which provided a good contrast to the long drives on our Western Crete trip. Everyone was very helpful, and the stops were well organised and varied. Knossos was just as we had imagined it would be - and it was great to have our own guide to explain what we were looking at! No trip to Crete would be complete without visiting Knossos. This trip gave a good insight into some of the history of Crete as well as lives for the local people over time. Everything ran to time, and the time allowed for each stop was just perfect!
We always double-check the availability with our local partners for each booking. Even though this is usually a swift process, it can take up to 24 hours. Once this process is completed you will receive your voucher or ticket by email. If our local partner is not able to confirm your booking we will offer you the best possible alternative. If the new date and/or time doesn’t fit your itinerary, we will reimburse the full amount paid.
How great that you want to share your experience! Your feedback helps other travelers to make a better choice.
