Dimitri’s has a lot of knowledge and is very attentive. We had a wonderful and fun time on our tours with him. We were two families with 3 teens and everyone had a great time with a lot of history learned and a lot of laughs. We started at Knossos palace followed by an olive oil tasting at a family owned business with a wonderful and kind couple, Zeus Cave and finished at a family owned Tavern. We can only recommend a tour with Dimitris when in Crete.

If you only do one day tour to see as much of Crete as possible, this is the tour!!! It was such a great experience for everyone in our family. We were a group of 7 and the tour was planned perfect so the kids and adults had a great time. We went on Good Friday, which meant the schedules were a little different but our guide modified the schedule and it was just perfect. We were picked up from our villa even though it was well outside the normal area, we’re greeted with fresh pastries, and our guide even added a monastery near by, which was really special for Good Friday. At the end of the day when the kids got tired, our guide also modified so we could do more of a driving tour through some lovely villages on the way home.
Tour was amazing.the kids loved it.The food was great, for sure our best day in crete.absolotely recomended do not miss
One of the best tours we’ve taken. Dimitri was very knowledgeable attentive. He answered all of our questions and gave us great in detail knowledge about the island he also took a whole group of us to mátala for a great swim and tour of phaistos on his off day. Real gentleman highly recommend
The full-day private tour of Knossos, the Cave of Zeus, and a local olive oil factory offers an enriching blend of history, mythology, and Cretan culture. With knowledgeable guides and a well-paced itinerary, the tour provides fascinating insights into Minoan civilization, stunning natural landscapes, and a delightful olive oil tasting experience. Highly recommended for an authentic and immersive experience in Crete.

Amazing Tour Guide! Friendly, prompt, and professional! We have two teenagers and a baby 2.5yo and we all had a great time. Learning about the olive oil flavors and production. Seeing a couple 3,000 yo trees. Eating a wonderful meal and beach for the teenagers.
Amazing experience! I would highly highly recommend it. And Dimitris is an amazing human being. Very thoughtful and kind and attentive. He made it a great all round experience
What an amazing tour! Dimitris was a lovely guide who shared many stories about his own life in Crete and Greece which really brought life to the tour! The stops are fascinating for any history buff and Dimitris really does take care of you! Easy, simple, no fuss. Definitely recommend!
Amazing trip with Dimitris the tour God! He was full of interesting information and history. He was perfectly on time and very attentive to our needs. The transportation was spacious, clean and comfortable. 10/10 experience and highly recommend.
Dimitrious is a truly exceptional person - his knowledge of the area proceeded my expectations and is only met by his passion for Greece. I would recommend his service to families and friends alike if ever you are needing a tour.
Dimitris was exceptional! SO knowledgeable about the island, sights and restaurants. Our trip was so much better purely because of Dimitris!
Had a really lovely day with Dimitris our driver for the day, he was very accommodating and tailored to our needs, plus a cool minivan with a good English speaker goes a long way. Or tour felt personal. It never felt busy but it is still early in the summer, overall the whole family had a lovely day!
Incredible experience of the island, lovely guy, thank you so much for making our trip so memorable and easy! Excellent tour!
Highly recommend. Personalised service, good level of English. We had an absolutely wonderful time and adore Crete. Might just be cause it’s so early in the season but genuinely not too many people either. We could properly experience things
