★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 404 reviews · 10.5 - 11 hours · from $58Our pick

Review of Crete’s Lassithi, Zeus Cave, olive farm, and Knossos tour, with honest advice on costs, walking, timing, guides, and value.

“Everything was great! We saw the most famous palces on Crete in 1 day. Knosos is the amazing place; cannot stop surprising what and how 4000 years ago all these was created...Each stop was very interesting; monasteries, villages, the cave and the view was so beautiful from any point. But the road to the cave is not an easy trail and not for everyone to handle. This has to be told in advance. Our guide Yani in a friendly manner provided very interesting info about each place we stopped. The lunch was delicious. The bus was clean with AC. Thank you”

3.Road-trip to Lasithi, Zeus Cave, Vidiani, Krasi & Olive Mill Farm

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 79 reviews · 10 to 11 hours (approx.) · from $48

Review of Crete’s Lasithi road trip to Zeus Cave, Vidiani Monastery, Krasi and an olive mill, with costs, timing and practical tips.

“This is a very large group tour and there are two monasteries and a very touristy stop at a shop selling olive oil and wine. Kids loved the pottery class though and it is a safe clean way to go to the cave which was the main reason we had taken it. It’s a beautiful drive but it took 10 hours total given multiple pick ups and drops - and the monasteries and olive tree stop were extra hours we wish we had just been able to skip.”
