- Suzanne· May 23rd, 2025After a bumpy start at Athens airport, the trip went very well. Our tour guide Thanos went out of his way for us. The hikes were varied and Thanos enriched them with interesting background information. Very friendly Hotel Galaxy Excellent choice of menus with explanations from Thanos in various tavernasShow more
- Jan· October 24th, 2024What a great trip! Well organized and laid out, both a history lesson with lots of interesting stories and a lot of laughs. Thanos the guide leader was hands down the best guide I have ever experienced on a tour. I would follow him anywhereShow more

Rebecca
Asked on April 13th, 2023I'd like to know if the "cycling the coast of eastern crete" is guided by someone and if not, how is it organized ? Besides, when we see comments about this tour, some people speaks about walks, some others about a guide. So it's difficult to know which one corresponds to the real one specifically.
- Exodus Adventure TravelsOperator•Written April 2023
This is a self guided holiday and so the cycling will be done independently using the Headwater navigation app. We don't include airport transfers in the standard holiday cost however, it is possible for me to arrange transfers to tie in with your flights at an additional price.
