My husband and I visited Crete during our business trip and had only two days to see this beautiful island. We had two options – rent a car and explore the island by ourselves or go on a tour with a guide who drives a car. I’m glad we picked the latter. Touring with a guide is like adding another dimension to the picture! You enjoy the ride in a comfortable car while learning a lot about Crete. We picked two different agencies for 2 days we had available. After all, we wish we picked only the Cherry Travel and Alexander as our guide for both days! Alexander is very passionate about Crete. From the very first minute of the trip, you feel immersed in Crete’s history, culture, and cuisine. In addition, we were a part of a small group, not on a private tour which usually costs much more, nor in a big group where the guide is trying to get everybody’s attention. We were able to ask Alexander any questions, from the history of Crete to what souvenirs we can bring back home from the island. With all the love Alexander expresses towards his job and Crete, he creates a unique entertaining and educational experience. It was evident that the tour content was carefully picked. Food and service in the tavern we stopped for lunch was very good. Not to mention, the booking was very easy, thanks to the help of Daria. She responded quickly and answered all our questions. Thank you, Cherry Travel! Excellent experience!

I booked 2 tours through this operator. Both tours were very well organized. All questions before booking were answered very quickly and in detail. The company's employees in the office and on the tours are very professional and customer-oriented. I learned a lot about the country, culture and history and would book more tours with this operator if I had more time. Thank you very much!

A very interesting mini trip to Crete. Thanks to the guide Elena, who talked a lot and interestingly about the island, we plunged into history and felt the atmosphere and spirit of Crete. The route was built perfectly, in a short period of time we rode along serpentine roads with gorgeous views of the island and mountains, walked around a small village and drank coffee, looked into the monastery, enjoyed the view of the bay, ate delicious seafood, swam with a mesmerizing view of the mountains, saw Spinalonga , walked around Agios Nikolaos. All this was accompanied by stories from Elena and, of course, a pleasant company of the same tourists. I really liked the guide, the stories were not boring and interesting, Elena herself told additional information that could be useful to tourists, stopped so that we could take photos, and noticed all the little things.
We definitely recommend the tour, suitable for both adults and children.
Thank you!

What a great day with Helena (?) There were 7 of us in a van, and she was able to take us to two small unpopulated towns; Fourni and Krista.; which were most interesting, We tasted some strong Greek coffee in Fourni. We also visited Agios Nikolaos, and Plaka for a lunch stop. I decided to skip lunch and take the boat to Spinalonga..as I had read the book "The Island". Great walk around the ruins. Helena was able to have the restaurant owner prepare me a take a long lunch and delivered it to me as I boarded the boat. She really went above with her kindness as I was the only one to take the boat over to the Island, A great day and I so enjoyed every moment, She is a great guide.

Our semi private tour ended up being just the two of us which was great. It was fantastic to see some of Crete that was off the beaten track and a bit different. There were some wonderful stops and scenery and some fantastic information from our guide.

We had a wonderful day tour of Crete off the beaten path. So, saw many places you would never discover on your own. Plus, the history of the past and the details of present life here in Crete. Knowledgable driver/guide made it fun as well.
One of the many highlights was the meal we had in a small village at a local tavern, we were greeted by the owner with a big smile and greek welcome. The food was spectacular and we shared all the local dishes.
Many memories of this day in Crete. Thank you Cherry Travel and "Helen"

Helen is knowledgeable, informative, interesting and enthusiastic. She listened to what I wanted and went out of her way to make a trip, which could have been awkward, extremely enjoyable. I sampled Greek food, saw some unforgettable sights, and we had a laugh. The time flew by, which is always a good sign.

We took 3 full days tours to explore the Crete. All tours were above and beyond of our expectations. All guides were amazing: extremely knowledgeable, with great presentation and personality. Their passion of the island really came across. We have learned and understood a lot of Minoan, Venetian, Ottomans and Greek societies and history during this pleasant experience. Highly recommend this company
