A must-see while you’re in Crete!
This is an outstanding theatrical production in a stunning space. The amazingly talented performers give it their all, heart and soul. You also get to be part of the action, a delight for children and parents alike. And the dinner itself was so delicious. We spoke with the owner, who clearly cares deeply about the whole experience for everyone. This is truly a must-see!

Trip Review
Kalimera, took my son and i on this trip, it was very good. Easy to book, clear instructions and times to meet. Excellent amount of time for a first timer and very cost effective. And a free shot of home made Raki to end. We caught 3 fish as well.Efharisto

Jeep Tour: Kourtaliotiko Gorge, Preveli & Spili VillageDominique_G, Aug 2026
10/10 experience
Firstly I want to say that our guide Yiannis was an absolute gem and a professional. He was extremely knowledgeable in Crete history and Greek mythology. He made us feel safe during the drive and throughout these different areas. He made the excursion even more incredible.For the excursion itself, I highly recommend bringing water shoes for the Kourtaliotiko Waterfalls. There are a lot of rocks leading up to the waterfall and if you’re bare foot like we was, you will lay the price lol. The scenery during the drive is breathtaking and the areas we went to didn’t disappoint at all

Tour of Crete Island
George picked us up at our hotel at the designated time. His car was quite comfortable. He is very knowledgeable about the history and geography of the area. We enjoyed the day in his delightful company and learned a lot about Crete. It was a well organized trip with options of places to visit. highly recommend using his services.

Fascinating tour with SunSud hosted by George
Our family spent a lovely day on private tour hosted by George of SunSud tour company. The entire day was perfectly organized, never felt rush and allowed us admire the beauty of surroundings while listening to George about the history of the region in engaging and informative manner. We enjoyed several stops on our way to Chania. The first stop was a beautiful viewpoint above Rethymno where George shared information about the historical periods of the city. We all including our children enjoyed the next stop at Kanakis Olive Mill where we were guided through the factory and shared explanation on the oil producing processes, then tasting olive oil and other local products. Afterward we drve along the bay admiring views of Gulf of Souda. We have a short stop at the Allied Cemetery where we paid our respect to the soldiers who fell in May 1941. One of the favorite stops was the Trinity Monastery of Tzagarolon where we were toured by George listening to fascinating stories. Later on we enjoyed a special wine tasting accompanied by a selection of traditional products at the monastery's old cellar. At Chania city we were guided through the picturesque harbor and explored the charm of Old town concluded by lunch at Antigoni Tavern enjoying sea view. If you are looking for very welcome, well-planned and enjoyable tour to Chania, we highly recommend SunSud hosted by George. Thank you for unforgettable day in Crete.

Excellent day trip!
We had an amazing day! The boat is very clean and comfortable, the staff onboard are amazing and very helpful! The travel time to the island is around 1 hour with amazing views all the way. Once you reach the island you get to swim in beautiful clear water and use snorkeling equipment and paddle boards. The staff have life jackets available if needed but the water is quite salty so you naturally float very easily. The food we was served was prawns with pasta, Greek salad with bread and fruit after. It was absolutely delicious and fresh! Could not recommend this trip any higher!

Jeep Tour: Kourtaliotiko Gorge, Preveli & Spili VillageJenny_T, Aug 2026
Great Excursion
My praise goes immediately to Nico our guide who was wonderfully knowledgeable and friendly. Very challenging walk for me but I’m 76 and do have medical issues. I don’t regret anything but the advertisement did say “short walk” and did specify age 0-99 which is very misleading. I have searched other adverts incase there was any information about more than 100 steps Down but failed to see this. However, no regrets because I had our fantastic guide to literally pull me up those stairs! We had a lovely milkshake at the cafe after The Gorge Experience and were taken along beautiful scenery to get to our lunch destination. There was of course the opportunity to swim after the Gorge, but we chose to chat to Nico instead! There were many beautiful shops where we ate a great lunch but not enough time to explore….however I had 15 minutes to quickly find a souvenir. The jeep of course has air conditioning and is comfortable.
