This full day 4x4 tour is for designed especially for adventures. You'll journey along dirt roads, mountain passes and through Crete's charming villages as you explore the island's hidden gems and vast panoramic scenery.

We'll get stuck straight in with an off-road drive through the rocky mountains of Lefka Ori in western Crete, where winding mountain roads snake their way through immense gorges, plateaus, bubbling rivers and sleepy villages. You'll also stop off at a typical village kafenio – café – for an insight into local life.

There's then a break for a typical lunch box. All the way, you'll experience Crete at its purest as you bump down dirt roads and bounce over rocky tracks. We'll drive to photo stops with some of the best views over the island – a real day of exploration.

No air conditioning Couldn’t see out of back windows due to seats being so high There was no wine served with meal as advertised Front window wouldn’t open as it was broke so person sitting there had no air or way to cool down

Everything was brilliant

Genuinely, and thoroughly, enjoyed this experience 100%; cost was very acceptable. Superb service from our driver [Harri - think the spelling's correct!!] from start to finish. Very knowledgeable indeed. Best part of the day was the brilliant "off road" experience. Love these "rugged" excursions. Only drawback [not a criticism but an observation], have a couple of less attendees: more comfort, and I would have willingly accepted a higher cost for this. Appreciate its a business / profit etc

Opas oli loistava, mielummin kuitenkin haluaisin suomeksi. Kauniit maisemat ja mahdollisuus kuvata. Ruokailussa joutui odottelemaan ja ruuassa oli vain perunaa, lihaa ja salaattia, maku kyllä hyvä. Retken hinta suhteessa liian kallis.

Podobało się - widoki, możliwość odwiedzenia mieszkańców, zwięzłe interesujące opowieści przewodników.

Leuke trip met leuke chauffeur, die ons veel verteld heeft.
