Description

Discover the best of western Crete on a full-day guided tour that takes you to the captivating towns of Rethymno and Chania, as well as the serene Lake Kournas. Begin your journey with a comfortable pickup from your hotel and travel in an air-conditioned coach or minivan for a relaxing experience.

Your first stop is Rethymno, a charming town where Ottoman and Venetian influences blend seamlessly. Wander through picturesque alleys, admire historic minarets and fortresses, or enjoy a coffee at the scenic harbor as you soak up the town’s unique atmosphere.

Next, explore Chania, often called the "Venice of the East." Stroll through its enchanting Old City, with its vibrant harbor, Turkish mosques, Venetian fortifications, and bustling Agora market. Discover traditional shops and taverns, and take in the rich architectural heritage that defines this Mediterranean gem.

The final destination is Lake Kournas, the only natural freshwater lake in Crete. Surrounded by lush greenery and dramatic hills, this protected wetland offers a peaceful setting to unwind, spot rare birds, and enjoy a gentle afternoon walk along the shoreline.

This ten-hour tour includes hotel pickup and drop-off, transportation, and a knowledgeable guide. Food and drinks are not included, so consider bringing snacks or planning a meal at one of the local taverns. Secure your spot today and experience the highlights of Crete in comfort—availability is limited, so book now!
