The tour was very interesting and overall I had a nice day out. The tour meant to be for few people but it turned out to be a private one with myself only which was fantastic. The only thing to mention is that I have been asked to pay for entry to the Melidoni Cave which originally the entry free was included in price. I would recommend this tour to everyone who wants to enjoy day out.

Lidie from Cherry Travel helped us plan 2 wonderful adventures while on Crete. First we did a tour of the western part of the island. This included Chania, Lake Kournos and Rethymno. Then we did a day trip to Santorini (Oia and Fira) including a visit to the volcano and the hotsprings. So much beauty! I highly recommend booking with Cherry Travel and Lidie.
