What to Expect

Embark on an unforgettable adventure as we explore the most famous destinations of Eastern Crete in just one day. Our journey begins as we ascend to the Lassithi Plateau, where you will be greeted with stunning views of the North Cretan Sea. Our first stop is the charming village of Krasi, home to a 2,400-year-old plane tree with a trunk circumference of 24 meters, and ancient fountains that flow with natural water year-round.

Next, we visit the Cave of Zeus (Diktaion Andron), delving into the rich tapestry of Greek mythology. In the traditional village of Psychro, you can savour some authentic Cretan delicacies, including the famous Cretan raki. Our journey continues with a scenic descent, leading us to the tranquil town of Agios Nikolaos, the cosmopolitan heart of the Lasithi prefecture. Here, you can admire the beauty of the lake, wander through the charming city market, and enjoy a meal by the sea.

We conclude our day in the fishing village of Plaka with a visit to Spinalonga, a UNESCO Heritage Site just 500 meters away. Here, you can spend 45 minutes and take a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear waters before returning to your hotel, carrying with you memories and photos that will last a lifetime.
