Bus to Kissamos, ferry to Balos lagoon and Gramvousa Island, optional Venetian Fortress climb, swim time, and Rethymno pickup.
“The trip was overally very nice. Logistically-wise everything was very good organised, both the bus and the boat were on time all the time. The only minor issue was the boat. It was very loaded with people and sometimes you would need to stand for the entire ride. Also, the bar on boat was super crowded and you had to wait 20-25 min to get a bottle of water. Both Gramvousa and Balos were very beautiful.”
Cruise from Chania to Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa, with an air-conditioned bus, ferry tickets, swims, and a Venetian fortress climb.
“It was a great experience and I am happy that I booked this trip. Eirini was an amazing guide. She had a very friendly and positive attitude. I will always remember on the way back, after a day at the beach, she asked us if we would like to hear some interesting facts about Crete. We all said yes and she started telling us some nice things about the island, while the sun was slowly setting. It was a highlight of the trip for sure. Balos was beautiful and we also enjoyed the trip to Gramvousa Island. I highly recommend this day trip.”

“The tour came on time to pick us up and the tour guide, Ioanna was very friendly and explained the next steps to us very clearly! The driver drove really well and it was a great experience on coach! It was great to hear the tour guide’s explanations about Balos and Gramvousa and the stories behind and it was just such a great experience! The 2 locations were just so beautiful and I recommend if you can to go up on the small hike to see the view from up there in both locations because it is breathtaking! Would really recommend this tour, it was fantastic!”
