What to expect

During this trip you will see a very special and different part of the island of Crete, an almost untouched area with high mountains and old villages trimmed with the wild natural beauty of the area. Your trip starts approx. at 9am from Rethymno with a personalized pick-up.

The first stop is at the Lake Kournas, where you can have lunch, relax and swim in the crystal-clear waters of the lake. It is the only freshwater lake in Crete and is relatively small. After a drive through the countryside, you will reach the village of Argyroupolis. You will stop to admire its charming springs, walk through the old narrow allies, and have a coffee break.

Next will be the village of Plakias, where you can have a meal, visit the village, or spend time at the beach. On the way back you will be taken on a different road through the Kourtaliotis Gorge, where you can stop to take photos. Around 5.30pm you will get back to Rethymno.
