A relaxed day on the South of the Island. - Lovely to see Agge again. Once again a lovely warm welcome. First stop was a village and it was so relaxing walking around with her. She seemed to know the whole village. We all sat and had coffee chatting about the Cretan traditions. The small museum was bought alive but the enthusiastic curator who we shared an Ouzo with. Then onto a gorge and beach stop travelling through the most amazing scenery. She got our youngest in the sea snorkelling. Lunch was at a very traditional family run Cretan restaurant where Gyros was consumed. Agge is now a friend. Highly recommend her trips.

Awesome Tour experience - Angie was an amazing tour guide full of knowledge of the island as well as all kinds of information on the local area! Enjoyed the tour so much and Angie was flexible on time at each stop which included the waterfalls and the beach/swimming alcove.

Fantastic Touring Experience in Crete! - Angie was one of the best travel guides I’ve had while traveling - her English is fantastic and she made the whole touring experience extremely enjoyable for both my sister and I, being able to answer all of our random questions and explain to us a lot of the history/mythology in Crete. Would highly reccommend!!!

Crete Full Day Tour - HIGHLY RECOMMEND! - Our full day tour around Crete allowed us to see all the amazing sites the island has to offer! We started our tour visting Spili village, where Aggeliki brought us through the village market and the village museum. From there, we took a beautiful scenic route (making a few pit stops for photos) to see the waterfalls and gorge, then visited an olive oil manufacturer and had a tasting (purchased some delicious products), and finally ended in Chania for sight seeing and lunch. One of the many reasons we loved our experience was how personalized Aggeliki made it - she asked us our preferences and priorities as to what we wanted to see, and incoprated this throughout. As we traveled around the island, Aggeliki shared all the stories, history, and mythology relative to the specific sites. Her English was incredible! I highly recommend this tour, it was very well thought out and planned, with the perfect mix of guided and independent time!
