45 tours
Summer books out fast on this island and the good private driver days go first. Here are the 15 standouts, with prices, group sizes and the detail that separates them, so you can lock one in before the calendar closes.
Full-day boat trip from Chania to Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa, with hotel transfers, castle hike, and plenty of swim time.
“The sights are amazing, the ferry is comfortable and has clean toilets, the whole experience was faultless.”
Crete quad safari with hotel pickup, off-road trails, olive oil tasting, Sissi and Vrachasi villages, and sunset views from Prophet Elias.
“It was just fun! The guide was super nice and funny!”
Crete snorkeling cruise from Malia with hotel transfers, mask and lunch on board. Swim, snorkel, see Stalis and Hersonissos, plus Saint George Bay.
“The whole excursion was quite lovely. We were picked up on time, the entire crew were super friendly, the locations we stopped at were beautiful, and the food was tasty. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting. The business is family run. They seemed happy and were very accommodating.”
A long day from Chania to Elafonisi’s pink sand, with coach comfort, guided stops, and a traditional Elos lunch break.
“What a great trip this was! Daphne was such an amazing tour guide. She shared so many cool and interesting facts along the way - from the olive trees, the animals, the food and the traditions. Would 100% recommend this tour. There are a few tricky roads to navigate that would be better taken by someone as experienced as our coach driver. Felt we were in the safest hands. The restaurant we stopped off at for lunch - Kamares - was absolutely incredible! It was one of my favourite places to eat on the whole island. You must go!”
Heraklion to Santorini by highspeed boat, guided bus to Oia and Fira, Caldera views, plus an optional volcano trip for extra time.
“It's a shame your company is, by advertising and making profits, causing travellers like myself and thousands of others to descend on a little island clearly totally unable to cope with the volume of tourists and so spoiling what should have been a quiet and enjoyable day. Nowhere to relax, nowhere to enjoy the beauty, just the most stressful and suffocating experience I've ever encountered - too many people!!!!!!!!!!”
Ride calm horses into Crete’s Finikia Mountains for a Zeus-view picnic, then enjoy a Cretan lunch with house wine and transfers.
“Irene and the rest of the workers were amazing! We had a few rear morning horsebacking riding up the mountain with a beautiful view and a delicious lunch! I would definitely recommend this experience!”
Acqua Plus Water Park in Crete with optional hotel transfer, included sunbeds and slides, plus a smooth day plan from pickup to 17:00.
“Great day out, went with two 15 year olds and they had fun. Lots of slides for all ages.”
Guided Samaria Gorge hike in Crete with transfers, first-aid trained escort, and a South coast boat ride plus swim in Agia Roumeli.
“Our guide Nicos was awesome. The pick up point was prompt and easy to find. Nico's explained to us very clearly out itinerary for the day so when it and checked in with us on the trail. Getting back was also so smooth. I highly recommend this service.”
Acqua Plus Water Park in Crete with transfer, sunbeds, and a full-day ticket. Over 50 slides, lazy river, and cashless payment.
“Brilliant we had a fabulous time. The only thing was a lot of areas were very sloppy to walk on but we had a great time and will definitely go back”
Platanias quad safari with hotel transfer, CFMoto 450 ATVs, mountain trails, viewpoints, and breaks. Small-group ATV fun in Crete.
“unfortunately on the day there was a sand storm from Africa but we still went out and had a really good tour. The guys are relaxed and knowledgeable. Quad bikes were great fun even my wife enjoyed it and she was very sceptical to start with Thanks again Adrian & Ant Mr K.Ross Norfolk, UK”
Buggy safari in Crete from Analipsi to Sissi, Milatos Cave, olive press, and beach time, with lunch and hotel pickup.
“Beide Guides waren toll. Die Route ebenso. Mittagessen (Schweinefleisch am Spieß/Pommes/Zaziki/Salat + ein Getränk) hat sehr gut geschmeckt. Die letzte Station mit „Baden/Schwimmen“ wäre interessanter, wenn es z. B. ein abgelegener oder besonders schöner Strandabschnitt wäre. Der überfüllte, öffentliche Strand ist jetzt kein besonderes Highlight. Trotzdem war es ein super Ausflug, den ich wirklich nur empfehlen kann.”
Chania to Falassarna Beach sunset trip with air-conditioned roundtrip transfer, sunbeds and umbrellas, plus time to swim and stroll.
“Everything was great, we enjoyed! Must see place! Well organized, recommending.”
Private Mercedes chauffeur from Chania for 4-8 hours with flexible pickup, Wi-Fi, snacks, and expert help for stops, tickets, and restaurants.
“Our guide was great. We had a lot of fun while also learning. He accommodated my wife’s limited mobility and we still had a wonderful tour.”
Small-group Knossos tour with transfer, bottled water, and timed skip-the-line entry. Learn Minos and Minotaur myths in 2.5 hours.
“The tour of the Knossos palace was wonderful. We were lucky to be the only ones on the tour so it was a private tour. The guide was very accommodating with my walking issues. And we were able to stay longer so my nephew was able to explore more. Riding the city bus was great, able to see local life. Going to Greece in January has been the best choice, no crowds and the weather is perfect. 60 degrees F. For us is warm. We came from 10 degrees F.”
Limnoupolis Water Park day trip from Chania or Rethymno with lunch and optional hotel transfer, plus free sunbeds.
“A lovely waterpark. Not too busy, even at peak summer, so the queues were not too big. Great staff and great slides. All very chilled. Food was great too.”
