This is a private tour with a 7-seater van for a maximum 6 guests (price is for 6 persons).
Chania since the ancient times was a melting pot of civilizations and cultures, each invader and new town resident leaving its mark on history, architecture and culture. Chania is the oldest continuously inhabited city in Europe dating back to Minoan civilization around 5.000BC.
In this tour we will try to trace the remains of civilizations, in the buildings and monuments. By doing so we will go through the waterfront, alleyways, fortifications, viewpoints and marks of the past. We will see how Chania has changed over time, the buildings added and destroyed! The city was divided in the Christian, Muslim and Jewish quarters. We will go through them where we will show you historic points of interest not so obvious to the average visitor.
Although the tour focuses on history, we will explore the culture and traditions of Chania and how they have merged to form the modern day city of Chania!

Unfortunately the tour guide didn’t question what port we were arriving. As a local, he forgot to ask which port we would arrive in. We had no idea there was one more one port. So even though we told him our ship name and he responded we came in to a port 3 hours away. How were we to know! We don’t live and work on the island. Buyer beware. He claims it was our responsibility to know what port we were arriving in. Who would ever think there was more than one port. Cruise ships usually use only one port. He got the day off at our expense. Very poor service
