Overview of your Chania tour:

Unearth the secrets of Chania's history!

From the first human inhabitants of the island to the Roman conquest and a devastating earthquake, this museum has it all: Stone Age tools, Minoan pottery, Mycenaean graves, stunning jewelery, Roman mosaics, Greek vases and statues, not to mention the first European writing system! As an archaeologist, I will provide fascinating insights and context, making sure that your visit is an unforgettable experience.
