We are locals and we know the area a lot better about history, culture and we are well worth carrying on so that visitors can get a better idea of the Real-life of Crete

Spectacular tour today with Konstantinos (Kostos)!! So very happy to have met Kostos and to spend the day with him. We went to a variety of interesting places and learned many new things. I really enjoyed the Tour of Traditional Olive Oil Factory near Melodoni where Joanna Paraschakis the owner, gave us a fabulous tour explaining the historical changes in production of olive oil through the ages. A lovely tasting and we brought some home with us. We went to the Honey Museum near Melodoni and learned information about bees and honey production. We also went to a pottery village in Margarites. Eleni, who is second generation potter, made a piece of pottery and decorated it while we watched. We bought 2 pieces which Eleni carefully wrapped for us to take home. Pottery is her life and she is a talented artist full of heart.
Kostos took us to the caves in Melodoni and gave us great background information about what we were seeing and the story behind it. We had a wine, cheese amd olive tasting and bought some of everything we tasted. Finally we went to Rethimno, Kostos’s home town and gave us a personal tour through the streets of the town. He took us to his favourite souvlaki place and it was delicious!! Kostos is a happy, flexible and accommodating professional tour guide with a great sense of humour and outlook on life. Kostos made our day very special! A highlight of our trip. Thank you, Konstantinos

This was my favorite day in Greece! We met such amazing people, each stop was fascinating and it was an honor to see the beautiful things they made. We especially loved the ceramics, as we got to meet the woman that made them and she spoke about how her family has been doing it for generations. The monestary was also fascinating, and I’m so glad we got to go.
Our tour guide was wonderful, very relaxed, kind and knowledgeable. I’d certainly go on anouther tour with him again! He went out of his way to stop and find us an extra suit case (since we bought so much stuff we needed one more!!) and catered to us wonderfully. It made the day feel so special. We couldn’t recommend this tour more!
