Fun and exciting

The daytrip was a fun and exciting experience, where we got to see different aspects of ancient and modern Cretan life as well as different parts of the island itself.
Our driver Nikos brought wounderful energy to the trip and also had answers to every one of our questions.
10/10 would do again!

We had the most amazing and wonderful…

We had the most amazing and wonderful day in Crete with the two guides Elia and Mickel. They were funny, care, knowledgeable. the day was versatile for the kids and for the 40, 50, 70 years old participants. They knew the right time for brakes and were very organised with times. They were funny and joyful for all of us! Increase all expectations!!!

Excellent 4x4 mountain trip.

The driver arrived dead on time to collect us from our hotel.He spoke good English and greeted us in a friendly manner.He introduced himself and encouraged us to do the same.He told us where we were going and what to expect.He was a careful driver and the 8 of us all had fun. The lunch was amazing too in a small village.We even petted a goat and fed some .Tried local cheese and Raki.Went to an olive factory where Satiours took us round with all his knowledge. Lots of small villages with local shops to look in. What an excellent day.

Amazing sunset safari with super Mario

Amazing sunset safari with super Mario! He made the whole experience so much better with his knowledge of the area and crazy personality! The safari itself was beautiful and Mario did an excellent job driving the jeep. He was so friendly and spoke to everyone of the locals in the mountains. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Sissi!

We had a really fun day

It was a fun day. Our 11-year old son was very enthusiastic afterwards. A nice ride, lovely chauffeur Ruud1, who enriched us with his playfull way of sharing his knowledge of Crete/Greek mythology and life in Greece. Big thanks to Ruud!

One of the most unique experiences we have done!

We haven’t been able to stop talking about our FABULOUS experience on the Safari tour!! We were a groups of 18 family members with 8 teenagers, one 10 year old, and 9 adults and it was an experience of a lifetime!!
Our guides/drivers were EXTREMELY knowledgeable about Crete and Greece in general. Fascinating info with such warm, funny, and kind guides/deivers!
Our experiences at the shepherds farm, goat milking, cheese tasting, ceramic lessons, traditional Cretan lunch with local wine, visit to an olive oil factory, and off road driving…made it an experience we will never forget!

Must have experienced!!!

Today's tour offered many beautiful insights into the rural area and the culture of Crete. We, as the German group, had tour guides Jorgos and Mike, who gave us an unforgettable day.
They are a great team and have provided a good mood with their witty and flexible nature. I highly recommend the Land Rover tour.

Not experienced informative driver

I booked a tour in English. We were 4 different groups of people in our 4x4 whose second language was English. Unfortunately our 'guide' barely spoke English and he was new and not been trained so we had to keep asking the guide from the other jeep. 1 hour into the trip we stopped for a bathroom break where there was a little room like a church. The other group went in & were told about it. Our driver had problems with wifi & taking our food order. I had to ask the other guide for the plan for the day. We were in the 4x4 in silence for 5 hours in total. We went to 3 sightseeing places. The rest was coffee/food places. The other guide was engaging with his group throughout but we got nothing. At 12:15 our driver said we were going to lunch. Then we went through the Gorge to the beach and he said 1 hour at the beach, meet at 1:30 then dissappeared. The other guide was explaining to a few of us that the boat there was Syrian refugees that came 4 or 5 days ago. I then went to the beach and for a swim. Half hour later I looked up to see the beach empty and landrovers gone so I went looking for everyone. There was a bar/ restaurant were all the othe companies jeep safari vehicles were parked. I asked them but they didn't know. Eventually I found another couple from the other group under a tree. They too didn't know. Eventually we found everyone around the back where there was another area hidden from view from the beach. Thinking maybe we were having lunch there I asked and he said no. When I told him this trip is very confusing because our driver isn't telling us anything he said it was my fault because I went to the beach! It didn't occur to them to tell us were they were going. 1:30 was the end of sightseeing. Pick up was 8:30 am & we had lunch at
2:15pm then stopped for coffee ice cream & that was it. So disappointed. You could see the other group being told things, their guide taking photos, laughing & joking. Our driver hadn't been told the basics or learned in English information or names of things. They call themselves safari experts. The brochure claims 'experienced and informative drivers' That was definitely not my experience.

We had a great day!

We had a great day! Our driver Yasser was very nice, funny, had interesting things to tell about Crete but most important, he is a very good driver so we felt absolutely safe in the mountains. Before the very nice lunch we were on a quiet beach for relaxing and swimming. The beach was pebbles so bring watershoes.

Amazing experience

Amazing experience! Our guide Ilias made it an unforgetable day for us. We visited Tripiti beach witch was very beautifull and peacefull. Our guide had a lot of interesting facts to tell us about places we saw during our tour as well as about the isle of Crete. The lunch at a local restaurant owned by Maria was very tastefull and the pitoresk restaurant was very authentic with a nice view of mount Psiloritis.
