Exciting drive and experience to the Cave of Zeus
Our guide and driver was Christos who was with Safari Experts Crete. Couldn’t find a nicer chap. We were picked up from our hotel and then had to pick up the other tourists in our group from their respective hotels in our Landrover Defender. We then drove into the mountains with quite a lot of it off-road. That was great fun and a little scary but we always knew that we were in safe hands! We travelled through the Lasithi Plateau and then onto the Cave of Zeus. That’s a lot of walking uphill and down and up a lot of steps. Not good for those with mobility difficulties. But it was well worth it. Then onto a friendly taverna with loads of food and some wine and water - and raki! Then home again. Great day and can’t recommend it highly enough! Will go again on any tour experience with Christos.

4×4 safari - Minoan route
Wow! What an outstanding experience of the true Crete, away from the hustle and bustle, and breathtaking sights of the local flora, fauna and wildlife. Words cannot express enough how Geoff complemented the 5* experience with his unlimited knowledge, humour and expert driving skills. We were blessed with the wonderful sights of vultures soaring and finding their lunch, Geoff did not rush us and encouraged to spend time to watch in awe. A sight we will never forget A visit to the olive oil factory was interesting and the history behind this tasty treat was great. Also had the opportunity to buy some for home. A few village stops, including a monastery. Lots of history to absorb and admire. Lots of impromptu stops to admire the views, see the wildlife and stretch your legs. No feeling of being rushed or clock watching. Geoff could not have made us more welcome and his enthusiasm for this beautiful island came across to us all. He is an absolute credit to the team and to Crete. Geoff, you are fantastic and guided our day with such ease and care. Your passion for this island shines through! The small group allowed everyone time to chat, ask questions and enjoy each others company. Especially at the taverna where the most delicious food was served. Raki is a must try, but be warned, it's lethel The whole trip was relaxed, informative and fun. If you want to see the true, natural Crete, this is must-do. Don't hesitate, get it booked!!

Fantastic day
One of the best tours we've done. Our guide english Chris was fantastic. He had the knowledge and the bad dad jokes and really made the tour what it was. The tour itself really showed what Crete is about, from the olive oil, food production on the Plateau and the goat herding. And of course the Raki tasting.

A marvellous day out!
Christos our driver was simply fantastic and the best host. He passed on local knowledge and history info of all the areas toured and stopped in some marvellous places for photo opportunities. The lunch was as excellent also salads to start and chicken and potatoes from a traditional mud oven with a couple of glasses of wine and ouzo to compliment it all. No hesitation in recommending this trip a really good day.The walk to the Cave of Zeus is steep but we were left in no doubt there was no rush to complete it all and ample time to as given.I even managed to milk a Goat!Well done Christos!

Great guide, great food and drink, great scenery!
This was an amazing day! We traveled with only 4 people so it was a very personal experience. Our guide was so informative and an interesting person himself (prior Olympic skier). The olive oil and wine tasting were lovely. We felt very safe on the windy and off road areas. The Milia Retreat and meal were sumptuous and beautiful locale. Just a great day from pick up to drop off.

Absolutely lovely tour guide. This was the perfect blend of scenery, history about Greece and Crete, and a relaxing few hours on the best beach we went to!!! If you are looking for a mild activity (we traveled with a grandma with some minor mobility issues) this is the tour for you!!! Couple minutes of rocky walking to the most picturesque view. The rest was total bliss and relaxation!! Can’t forget to mention the AMAZING and delicious lunch we had as well 10/10- highly recommend

Great day of sightseeing and sampling wine & food
Great day seeing many varied sights. Our Guide Demetrius was really wonderful. Very knowledgable about all the places he took us and pointed out many things along the way. He saw to our every need along the trip. The people at the winery and the wine tasting were very nice, and lunch at the monastery was absolutely delicious. It was one of the highlights of our trip and I would highly recommend it. Pictures are of the Milla Mountain Resort.
