Crete · MARKETS
Every week on the island has one free day fewer than the plan needs. These 7 market tours are the ones that earn the slot, priced and timed so the decision takes minutes.
Spend 7 hours in Heraklion, shop Pateles market, stroll the port to Koules fortress, then see 250+ marine species at CretAquarium.
“It was fantastic our guide was so clear explain for as lots of informations and history about the Crete culture we love it .”
Guided day tour of Knossos Palace, Heraklion sights and market, plus a Minoan farm tasting, with pickup and an expert guide.
Half-day bus tour from Crete to Cretaquarium and Heraklion city sights, with time for the local market and easy shopping.
“We were not picked up until an hour after the pick up time. It was clear they had missed us off as they eventually sent a mini bus to get us. This meant when we got to the aquarium (to meet up with the coach that should have picked us up) we only had 45 min to pay and get round the aquarium. We refused as we wanted to take our time and enjoy it not rush through it which was disappointing as we wanted to go to the aquarium. On the positive Heraklion was lovely and the local market was good but make sure you take lots of cash!”
Knossos Palace and Heraklion in one day from the resorts, with a live guide, market time, and Venetian harbor views. Entrance fees extra.
“visite du marché annulée - visite du palais de Knossos au pas de course car gros groupe FR et AN - audio-guides défectueux (coupures, grésillements et bips) - temps libre à Heraklion trop court, on a à peine une temps de manger. Pour ceux qui apprécient le shopping et les visites zen, ce n'est pas la bonne excursion à faire...”
Cretaquarium and Heraklion market tour with skip-the-line tickets, a guided walk around old Venetian streets, plus time to browse the open-air market.
“Es wäre schön, wenn es eine Stadtrundfahrt oder Stadtrundgang durch Heraklion gegeben hätte.”
Heraklion city sights, the farmers market, and CRETAquarium marine life in one 7 hour day trip with guided stops and free time.
“It was brilliant, we got to see so many different places and given background information by the guide as we went along. We spent enough time at each location.”
Chania Old Town and Chryssopigi Monastery tour with Prophet Elias views, hotel pickup, a guide, and tickets included.
“Very informative and laid-back with a wonderful stop at a monastery. Seeing Shaniya was wonderful! Our guide Tatiana was exceptional and very accommodating. She provided an awful lot of information and facts that were great to hear. Thoroughly enjoyed this tour on the island of Crete.”
Every kind of day out on the island, and the best of each.
