Snorkel Kourtaliotiko Gorge waterfalls in Crete with a wetsuit, guided safety setup, and a hike of 300+ steps.

“Great trip, we had a great guide, professional, friendly. They equip you with a full wetsuit, which turned out to be really great in the cold water. I would always choose this team, the trip was worth all the money and the long drive from Kissamos to Plakias. Thank you, best regards from Slovenia, Marino and Jasmina.”
5-hour guided river trekking through Kourtaliotiko Gorge in Crete, with neoprene gear, waterfall cave swim, and a light lunch.

“Fantastic adventure, from the very beginning till the very end. Great guids, highest professionalism and kindness. Real Crete experience, divine Forge, small waterfalls, ponds, refreshing current, smooth rocka, sounds, plants, trees, mountains above. First swim to the highest waterfall - worth the freezing bath! Then the whole way down is like a fairytale or legend :) after leasing the river don't fear the way up to the car - it's 2mins mildly up, then flat through the aromatic meadows in a valley. Best wear trekking sandała or simply trainers, the tighter the better since you cannot always predict the stones on the river bottom. And we truly recommend not going…”

Private south Crete day for Kourtaliotiko Gorge waterfalls and Preveli or Kalypso swim time, plus flexible lunch and cross-island drive.

“Super expérience ! George est au petit soin pour nous faire découvrir sa région ! Journee aux gorges et à la plage de Kalypso en passant par un petit bar typique pour boire un café grec et une taverne pour manger le midi que du local c'était extraordinaire ! Vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés !”
Crete south coast day trip to Damnoni and Preveli. Walk Kourtaliotis Gorge waterfalls, ride to palm river beach, plus Plakias stop.

“Super georganiseerd, duidelijk, fijne gids en chauffeur. Ook helemaal happy met opstap mogelijkheid bij Iberostar Marine. Alles was super, alleen verblijf op Prevelli had korter gemogen. Veel te veel mensen daar in mooie stukje natuur eigenijk zonde. Uur was lang genoeg geweest.”
South Crete full-day trip from Chania or Rethymno, with Kourtaliotiko Gorge, Preveli Palm Beach boat stop, and Damnoni Beach swim time.

“Great, although I think that you leave little time in each of the places and you can't enjoy them 100%. In fact, in Damnoni we only had time to eat and we couldn't enjoy the beach.”
Every kind of day out on the island, and the best of each.
