We spent our day with experienced and lovely tour guide Roy. Quite simply the best tour guide we've ever had. He provided a ton of knowledge on local fauna, inner workings of the vineyards and witty humor. Book him and you simply not only get the best, but also funniest vineyard experience known to a man.

We had a wonderful time on the mountain and winery tour! We lucked out and got Louise as a driver - she was amazing. Told us many interesting facts and she was so much fun!!! Also she knew the way back while our friends driver made a wrong turn. All was well in the end however we felt lucky to be with Louise. HIGHLY recommend this tour! We were with the Azamara group!

This was a great half day tour. Our guide really took care to explain local traditions etc. The hillside views were spectacular. The staff at the winery were very hospitable. Tasted five nice wines. Only suggestion would be to provide a third glass for wine tasting so all glasses don’t have to be completely empty to taste another wine. Would certainly recommend this tour.

Really fun half day tour. Our guide was great. Very friendly and caring. My wife is not really good at "cliffside roads" and once he knew this, he was so concerned she was OK. He took us to beautiful vistas above the vineyards and cityscape and was awesome. Then went to a winery, which had really good wines as well as very friendly people. Highly recommend this tour.

Hands down, Uncharted Escapes made our trip to Crete unforgettable.
Firstly, our driver and guide Thassalis is just an amazing person. He’s funny, knowledgeable, and so real. You don’t feel like you’re a “customer,” you feel like a friend.
Thassalis was an absolute hero, and even drove us to our COVID test we needed to fly home prior to our first outing - the adventure to Knossos Palace.
First thing we noticed was the Land Rover is super comfortable and gorgeous. Thassalis picked us up next to our hotel, and was immediately warm and hilarious.
We drove to Heraklion, to the palace of Knossos, where Thassalis handed us off to our guide, Manolis. Oh my goodness was Manolis a godsent! An absolute encyclopedia, like a professor. He spent extra time with us because we were so interested the subject matter, at both the ruins and the museum. He really knew how to draw a mental picture and tell a story. Wow! What a tour, what a day. Thassalis drove us back, stopping at a taverna en route. My husband and I drank a bottle of wine, had a great meal, and enjoyed the conversation home. It was an unforgettable day.
So we loved Uncharted Escapes so much, we booked it the next day, insisting on again having Thassalis as our guide. He took us to a local winery where my husband and I did a tasting, and Thassalis drove us off-roading through olive trees to see the most spectacular view of our lives, and through some more interesting areas that manufacture amazing olive oil. We then stopped at the oldest olive tree in the world - 3000 years old. It was insane.
We then nipped into the taverna (Thassalis was kind enough to agree to our begging to try the food and olive oil) tasted their ancient olive oil, drank the house wine (vines were right above us,) ordered a snack, and had a great chat with the owner. Touring with Thassalis feels like touring with a local friend. He is truly an incredible guy. We love love love him and will request him every time we come back to Crete.
I’m sad we didn’t do the Shepherd’s Hut cheese making tour, but we are saving it for next times. We love you Thassalis and Manolis - thank you Uncharted Escapes!
