Hi there! My name is Manos, I am proud to be born on the island of Crete and I live in Iraklion. I have been working in many different jobs, before realizing what I really wanted. After getting my University Degree in Tourism Management, I gave exams to enter in the School of Guides and guess what. . . I was so passioned with this school that I passed the exams with one of the best grades. It was 3 very difficult years of studies, huge amount of information, very demanding exams and many many nights of studying!!! Finally I got the licence, I wanted so much and since 2004 I am working as a Professional Tourist Guide, offering tours all over Greece, but mainly on the island of Crete. I am working a lot with english speaking guests mainly coming from USA, Canada and England , as well as with guests coming from Russia and Ukraine. (I also have the permit to guide in the Russian Language). Having all that experience (. . . . imagine around to 250 tours every season for the last 15 years) I realised that, if I wanted to offer to my guests "Authentic experience" and the "Real face of Crete", I had to run my own business. . . so I created my own tour agency, organizing unique and authentic, fun and memorable tours, around the island of Crete, focusing on the highest level of service and satisfaction for my guests. As an example, in order to offer the highest level of experience in my special wine tours, I studied and became wine sommelier, so as to speciallize in the wine world, that Crete has so much to offer. Apart from that I followed seminars of safe-driving and first aid/cpr. So you are in good hands. . . ;-) As a conclusion, if you are looking for unique experience tours, if you want to see Crete through the eyes of a local, if you want to have authentic experience and to know Crete behind the scenes. . . . you are with the right person. I am specialized in organizing tailor made tours, according to the wishes, needs, wills of my guests. . . Whatever you want, nomatter how unique it is, I will make it happen for you. . . Thank you for your time. No matter if you book a tour with me or not, I wish you to have the best vacations on the beautiful island of Crete!!! - Licenced Tourist Guide, Graduate of Greek National Tourism Organization School of Tourist Guides in Thessaloniki - Graduate of Tourism Management Department of the Technological Educational Institution of Crete - Graduate as Certified Wine Sommelier of the Genius in Gastronomy School. - Graduate in the seminars of Iaveris School of Safe Driving in Athens Depending on the amount of guests that will book a tour, I might need to hire different types of vehicles. In that case, there is going to be a hired car with a driver. But in any case, guests will be informed about that.
