Amazing!

For all those interested in History, Archeology and Greece Myths this is a must-see site. Yes, over 100-year old “excavations and preservation” works conducted by Sir Arthur Evans are controversial today, but the is where you see this is not black and white. The tour guide (Poppy ?) was very knowledgeable and professional. It’s not easy to care for a buss of people in 90 degrees and share every detail of this archeological site, but she did it!

Amazing!

The tickets and guide audio are texted and emailed immediately upon booking. Very user friendly. You can go at any time and skip the line into Knossos. Highly recommend this. We stayed about an hour although the audio is longer. It’s a great option if you want to see the ruins but not spend a full half day with a live guide. We enjoyed this trip a lot

Amazing!

I had thought, when booking the tour, to be given a standard "go here, look at this, listen to the history of it" tour. That was not the case!

The Clio tour is in fact more concerned with a general background of the period and people, and so it is better to view the palace at your own pace while listening as you walk. The background detail given is certainly interesting and I felt we had something that other visitors were not experiencing.

My only criticism is that the Android app didn't auto-play so I had to keep manually starting the next part of the tour as I moved around.

For the castle itself, well there isn't much of it left but it's an interesting place anyway. It is a little tourist-driven and there are more historic places in Crete but it's not expensive and it's a fun morning out anyway. If only Heraklion wasn't such a horrible area to drive in!

Dear Aaron,

Thank you so much for your review! Indeed, when this tour was created, we had in mind that we do not want to offer information that can easily found online. We wanted to offer something different and unique. And that is the case with all of our tours, we like to consider them non-conventional and different :-) So as you understand, reading your review was quite rewarding for us! We are designing an Android app from scratch, and unfortunately, this is a time-consuming process. The new version will be way better and among other things, it will offer a more convenient audio player! We wish you the best and hope to see you in one of your future travels!

Amazing!

Easy way to see a popular attraction. Audio tour was difficult to download, but informative. Would definitely recommend. Also, you do not have to go exactly at the time listed on your ticket. My ticket said 0900, got there at 0815, and they let us in no problem!
