5.0 · 88 Reviews



























Overview
Step back in time on this unforgettable day trip as we explore the roots of European civilization. Our first destination is the legendary Palace of Knossos, the heart of the ancient Minoan civilization. Walk through the ruins of this grand archaeological site and hear the fascinating myths that surround it — from the Labyrinth and the Minotaur to the tale of Daedalus and Icarus. Next, we visit the Archaeological Museum of Heraklion, one of the most significant museums in Europe. Here, you’ll marvel at over 15,000 artefacts that bring the vibrant Minoan world to life — from frescoes and jewelry to tools and ceremonial items. To complete our day, we travel to the charming city of Rethymno, where you’ll have free time to wander through the narrow streets of the old town, discover its Venetian and Ottoman architecture, and enjoy the blend of history, culture, and Cretan hospitality that makes this city so unique.
