Let me show you the real, unexplored Crete! Explore the ancient archaeological site of Aptera with me, wander around the Roman ruins, and discover the marvels of Greek antiquity with a licensed historian tourist guide. I will show you the authentic Cretan villages of Chania mainland, offering you the opportunity to see the way of life of Cretans and enjoy mesmerizing panoramic views. I will then take you to off-the-beaten-path places and unexplored villages, where we will have the chance to interact with locals, see the authentic flora and fauna of Crete, and eat local, genuine Cretan food! Awesome views, vast historical knowledge, archaeological mysteries, hospitable people, and the traditional villages of Apokoronas and Chania are standard features of what I will show you on this private tour!
Apostolos did a great job. He was on time and waiting for us. We had been to Chania in the past so this tour was great for getting out of town and into some of the villages and ruins in the country. Apostolos is very knowledgeable and energetic. He took us to areas that had great views of the mountains and Souda Bay as well as an amazing Roman ruins far from the crowds.
Apostolos was a wonderful and charming guide. You could tell that he loved his island. We learned so much.
Very good tour, he showed us a lot, authentic Greek lunch!
Apostolos is an outstanding guide. Speaks fluent English. Very welcoming and happy to share his knowledge of the area. Willing to tailor the tour to our interests. Overall a wonderful tour with a wonderful guide in a beautiful part of Crete.
Apostolic gives a great tour. He enabled us to prearrange a custom tour which worked perfectly for our family. His historical knowledge of the area was significantly enhanced by his background of growing up in a multi-generational family that has lived and worked in western Crete.
Our guide, Apostolist was prompt, thoughtful and filled with pride for his island and country. He was able to tailor the tour to interests of the group and include places we had not considered but really enjoyed. We felt like we got to see the best parts of the island and would happily recommend taking any tour that he would offer.
