Excellent tour!

Published on Sep, 2024

We had a wonderful tour of Chania with Apostolis. He was incredibly knowledgeable of the history of Chania and gave lots of detailed information, especially the Battle of Crete in WW2. He very kindly accommodated one of our group (who has Parkinson’s and tires easily) and was happy to divert to a cafe when rest was needed. He went above and beyond, recommending other things to do on Crete and an excellent lunch stop. We had a wonderful morning with Apostolis!

Great time walking in Chania

Published on Jul, 2024

My parents and I were truly satisfied with the depth of knowledge of the history of Chania and Crete! We had a very pleasant time.
