  • Spinalonga (Kalydon), Elounda, Greece
    Spinalonga, the main attraction of the day, is a small island very close to Elounda and on the east part of the island of Crete. It is a place of historical memory as it accommodated in isolation people suffering from lepra until 1957. Through the centuries it has been inhabited by the Venetians, the Turks before it isolated the lepers. It has always been a tourist attraction, however after 2005 when Victoria Hislop a British writer wrote a historical novel “The Island” about how lepers lived on Spinalonga, hundreds of people come every day to honor a visit and learn the history of the place first hand.

My daughter and I had EN wonderful trip. The trip was very well organized and was definitely worth the money. The guides had complete control of everything and we felt very safe. There was EN good balance between guided tour and time on your own. The places you come to are cozy and there was both room to see things on land and also get EN dive in the beautiful water. Bus EN was very comfortable with good space and air conditioning and the ride was beautiful and part of the experience. Definitely EN recommendation from here ????????☺️

Would 100% recommend this trip. Booking was simple, was picked up by a lovely gentleman at my hotel who drove me to the bus stop for pickup. Lots of free time to explore the two towns and our guide told us the history and stories on the coach. Perfect English and French on my day.

Excellent day trip with Altino travel. There were a lot of pickups, but that is to be expected on day trips like this. Being nosey it is nice to see other hotels and areas ????. The bus was comfortable and air conditioned. We had time in Elouna and Agios Nikolaus and then boat trip to spinalonga. It was all very well organised and no annoying stops at shops and factories you sometimes get on trips. We choose this trip partly because there was no lunch available. We preferred to be able to go off and explore and get a light lunch in a local cafe. Our driver Spiros was very good and kept the coach nice and cool and was always ready and waiting when it was time to move on. Our guide Manos was very friendly and informative and had plenty of interesting information to give us without overwhelming us with too many facts. All in all..long day but very enjoyable trip.
