Highlights
  • Preveli Beach - After a 2-hour drive, we reach the parking area, where the magical journey begins.
  • Preveli Palm Forest - The Palm Beach of Preveli, also known as the Lake of Preveli, is situated at the mouth of the Mega River, which flows from the impressive Kourtaliotiko Gorge.

Before heading to the beach, we take a brief stop to capture photos of the stunning springs, a unique natural wonder due to its landscape. The combination of the towering vertical cliffs of the gorge, the river with its green waters, and the distinctive palm tree forest creates an enchanting atmosphere. It is considered the most romantic beach in Crete.

A walk of approximately 25 minutes offers us the unforgettable chance to swim in the crystal-clear waters of the Libyan Sea, right next to the tropical river, bask in the sun, and wander through the exotic palm tree forest.

  • Rethymnon Old Town - Our final stop, before heading back, is a visit to the traditional old town of Rethymno for a stroll or a coffee break.
  • Heraklion - Our tour concludes. After a 2-hour drive, we return to reality.

Exotic place on Crete - I enjoyed this tour. Preveli Beach looked just like the photos, which matched my expectations. The hike was a bit challenging and took about 20 minutes, but the stunning views made it worthwhile. As for me, there were too many people on the beach, but it was expected given the popularity of the place. I appreciated that the tour included two locations – Preveli Beach and Rethymno – allowing me to experience more in one trip. Additionally, our tour guide, Maria, was wonderful; she was very helpful and had a great sense of humor.

Excursion preveli / rethymno - Preveli --> incredible scenery, but not accessible to everyone. We will have a wonderful memory. (Ps: We didn't plan the jellyfish to walk in the water so we couldn't go all the way up the river) I would advise to take the minimum business. Rethymno --> City composed of several small streets, very charming, lots of shops, park, fountains, greenery, it was very nice. We are delighted with this excursion. Thank you.
