Itinerary

  • The Palace of Knossos

    The Minoan Palace at Knossos is arguably the most instructive Neolithic and Bronze-Age site in the Aegean/ Eastern Mediterranean (7000-1000 BC). The reconstructed remains give you a chance to experience the labyrinthine architecture of the Minoans as no other site can, and provide a wonderful backdrop to many vignettes to help appreciate the Minoan culture. What went on in a Palace? Were their ladies the mainstay of their society? What sort of health did they enjoy? How did they organize the production of their sort-after textiles? What names were their oxen called? A myriad aspects – great and small – can be thus explored: enough to satisfy anyone’s curiosity. And yet .. we still cannot answer: what made them click? Come and see what you think: take a tour round this grand and enigmatic structure.

Learned so much!!

Published on Dec, 2024

Absolutely amazing tour by Akrivi!! She was so knowledgeable about not just the details about the ruins but also related mythology and how contemporary theories regarding the palace weave together with historical ones. If she hosts a lecture series on this topic I would love to learn more!! So exciting!!

Wonderful tour!

Our guide was excellent. She was an Archaeologist, an excavator and a tour guide. She showed images of the past and told us where to see the original artworks. I was so impressed with the brave Minoan women.

Katarina was an incredible guide

Published on Oct, 2024

15-17 Euro cab ride from downtown area to Knossos. crowded with many tours and other tourists. Katarina was what made the difference. She is an excavator working on the site and has a masters in Archeology. She had a very nice way of speaking that was captivating while informative. She did not just rattle off dates, but wove a wonderful story of the long History of Crete and the Minoan and Mycenaean cultures. The site itself is impressive, and well worth the time.

Great Tour Guide

Published on Oct, 2024

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, as she is an archaeologist, and also a very good communicator. We would have missed so much interesting information if we had chosen to do a self guided tour!
