The 4 City Tours in Crete We Would Book Again

1.Historical Center City Tour & Knossos Palace

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 340 reviews · 7 hours - 510 minutes · from $47Our pick

Explore Knossos and Heraklion on a guided Crete day trip with hotel pickup, city free time, optional museum visit, and multilingual guides.

“Soula was a very knowledgeable guide. She managed to do the tour in German and English at the same time. With some nice insights at the Knossos palace , it was a great to be there. A shame that it was too crowded to really enjoy and feel the Minoan history at Knossos palace. Since it was so busy at Knossos, we stayed there longer than expected resulting in that the tour in Iraklion was very short. Since we already visited the museum in a previous day, the tour ended earlier than expected for us”
