Very comfortable and interesting trip, Dimitris was a fount of information, he took us to a wonderful little eatery in Therisos called Liméri which I will review later, I can only say loukoumades which were given to us at the end of the meal, delicious.
In all a wonderful trip.

Wonderful trip out to the mountains with Dimitris driving. Went to beautiful orchard with oranges and avocadoes, a local hydro-electric waterfall and two pretty villages. Plus stops to admire the stunning views across the mountains. Dimitris was very knowledgeable about the WW2 history of this area. We stopped at village with lovely taverna for drinks and light lunch - reasonable prices and delicious local meze. Good driving, very punctual and considerate throughout. One of the highlights of our lovely holiday.

Our tour was handed off to a driver (Crete Transfers) with very little (if any) guide experience. He was an exceptional driver, but wasn’t good with explaining the area’s history and had no knowledge of the areas around where our cruise ship was docked in Souda. He did his best, but no one had prepped him on the content/agenda of our reserved tour.
