Our family had the best time on a private tour with Stavros!!! I took the tour with my teenagers, and all of us learned so much during the eight hours that we were completely amazed. It was wonderful to get a deeper understanding of both the ancient past of Crete, but also the history through time and the development of the island in our time. It was the highlight of our vacation and we are happy and grateful about the memories and knowledge gained during our tour.
