A wonderful day in the nature and in the heart of Crete. - We did a lot of stuff during the day and it was very fun. In my opinion my three highlights of the day were:
- the driver Jannis, with his relaxed attitude, made the ride very interesting and joyful.
- Even if there were many steps, the ZEUS CAVE was definitely worth visiting.
- The nature, the landscape and the small villages during the ride were charming and quite impressive.
Overall, the price/quality relationship of the activity is very reasonable and I totally recommend it if you would like to explore the island

Had a great day with the safari to the Lassithi plateau and Zeus cave! - We had a great day during our tour to the Lassithi plateau. Our journey started towards Krasi where there is a 3000 year old tree, then on to the Zeus cave. Before we went here we tasted local wine, raki, olive oil and jam. Here we also had a mini pottery course. After this I had a mega tasty and big lunch. To conclude, I drove a bit off road on top of the mountain. Super cozy with our Dutch speaking tour guide Jannis. Jannis thank you again for this unforgettable day! Efcharistó!

The best excursion you will ever do - We did the excursion in June, this was a very hot day with over 40°. We felt very welcome and comfortable straight away with the driver. There was 6 of us doing the excursion all groups of friends. We had some much laughter with Jozef during the whole trip. He was a really good tour guide and his history knowledge is amazing. Any questions we had he did not hesitate to answer them. There was AC in the car which was life saving with these very hot conditions. Not even mentioning the actual lunch, it was amazing so so filling. We had starters, main meal and even desert that came with it, lovely alcohol as well all included in the price we paid for the excursion. The price for the excursion was so worth it considering what he did, what we ate, everything we saw. Jozef made sure we felt comfortable during the ride and ensured everything was okay throughout the whole journey. I wouldn’t recommend this enough it was such a lovely day. Would definitely recommend going with Jozef a lot of laughter throughout the whole trip. Very good trip.
