Came away with a good impression. We reached the hotel faster than the booking suggested. Not the cheapest, but justified. Seeing a bit of Minoan Times on the way was a bonus. There was no toilet available on one leg of the route. Recommended overall.

So glad we booked this. You could tell the guide was a local, telling it first hand. I have never seen anything like Loggia. No long waits at any point. Lunch was basic for a day that long. One of the best things we have booked online.

Far better than we expected. Compared with doing it yourself, it works out well. Do it early, fewer people and much better light. I would recommend this to anyone visiting Heraclion.

Vale muito mais do que custa. A parada em Palácio de Cnossos foi o que mais gostamos. O roteiro é bem pensado, não repete nem dá voltas desnecessárias. Contrataríamos de novo.

Muito felizes com a escolha. Tiramos muitas fotos, o roteiro passa pelos lugares certos. A explicação em Heraclion nos deixou pensando. Pelo preço que pagamos, rende muito. Super recomendado.

Positivo no geral
Recomendo, sabendo o que esperar. Usamos conteúdo offline (texto, narração em áudio e mapas) para evitar tarifas de roaming o tempo todo e funcionou perfeitamente. Voltamos a Sala del Trono no dia seguinte por conta própria. Muito bom para uma primeira vez na cidade. A única ressalva: o grupo era maior do que imaginávamos.

Departure Point
The tour of the Knossos Palace begins just after the entrance to the archaeological site of Knossos (Knossos 714 09, Greece). Knossos is just a 20-minute drive from the city of Heraklion. You will drive along Ethnikis Antistaseos Avenue, which later gives way to Knossos Avenue for about 5 km. You will continue straight ahead until you reach Dedalou street, where you will find the entrance of the archaeological site. Even though you do not have a car, the easiest way is to get the bus. Take the bus 2 from Eleftherias square- the station is located in front of the Capsis Astoria Hotel- or from the central bus station of Heraklion.
