Great day out! Michael, our tour guide, was brilliant and knew a lot about the local areas. As it was the national Independence Day of Greece , we had our schedule moved around a little so we were able to experience the parades that were happening - a really lovely consideration for the team to have made! Our pick up was very smooth and the bus journey was a beautiful route that allowed us to see the Cretan scenery. Elounda and Agios Nikolaos are stunning places and definitely worth a visit!! We had a good amount of free time in each place - the best part, jumping off our boat into the sea on our way back from Spinalonga Island! Bucket list check! Highly recommend this day out to everyone!

Everything was super organized from start to finish and it was a lot of fun! The tour guide Elena was well informed, helpful, friendly and always in a good mood! We particularly enjoyed the different stays where we had enough but not too much free time. The boat trip to Spinalonga with a boat that was only for our small group was beautiful. We recommend going all the way to the top of the island if possible and taking a dip in the sea on your return.

We had a nice day exploring Agios Nikolaos and the island of Spinalonga. Our guide was very friendly and gave information about the region and sites while we were on the bus/boat. Be prepared that the information is given in three different languages, which might feel a bit annoying. We specifically enjoyed the time in Agios Nikolaos (1h 40min) and Spinalonga (1,5 h). The hype about Elounda is not justified in our opinion, but it was a welcome opportunity for lunch before taking the boat to Spinalonga. On the way back from the island the boat stopped for 20 minutes, so we could jump into the sea. Although we were being picked up quiet in the beginning and had to collect the other participants on the way, we enjoyed the longer bus ride (2 hours from Ammoudara to Agios Nikolaos) as we could observe the beautiful landscape.
