What people love about Crete Tours
- The Labyrinth of Crete
Overall, great experience. Was surprised to find out that museum was included after the Knossos tour. Was also more impressed by jeep tour than I expected. Overall, great 3 days. Hotel was nice just surprises my room didn't have a TV. But good food and comfy accommodations made up for it.
- The Labyrinth of Crete
Definitely, would recommend this tour.

From the booking staff from tourradar to the staff from Greece Katerina were excellent, what ever questions I had were answered right away. Reception staff from the hotel especially Chrisoula were great and the waiter George was excellent. I would recommend tourradar.

"2. We should have had contact with all independent tour operators in the event of issues that arose. 3. Finally, I think that the tours should be spread out over the period and not lumped together in the last four days. Perhaps an every other day would have been less taxing. By the way the Tui operated tours were excellent and the Safari tour was also very good.

"This was my first Intrepid tour and I don't see myself traveling any other way! Our team leader, Georgia was amazing, I met people from across the world, and we got to see so many areas of Crete.
