About this activity

Take advantage of our personalized tour service and get ready for a full-day or half-day private tour that will take you from one sight to the next, from breathtaking views to traditional villages to the secret villages of Heraklion – each one chosen by you!
Are you into wine culture, archaeological sites, traditional Greek cooking lessons, unique beaches, or Mediterranean gastronomy? The Exploring Heraklion Private Tour will allow you to see the things you choose at your own pace.
Heraklion Majesty – Sample itinerary
Heraklion is the administrative center of Crete, the heart of wine and olive production, and the seat of the ancient Minoan civilization, one of the first in the world. The tour will kick off with a visit at the traditional village of Archanes, nested in the middle of the Cretan wine country, with a history going back 5,000 years. In the village of Thrapsano we’ll learn how Cretans have evolved the art of pottery over the centuries.
You can have lunch in any number of amazing (and delicious!) choices in the villages we pass along the way, at your own expense.
The itinerary can be tailored or even changed outright according to your preferences. Book your tour today and experience a Crete you never knew existed!
