Day 1 The Samaria Gorge at its best
This private tour takes you on a 16km guided hike through Samaria Gorge, Europe’s longest limestone gorge, stretching from Crete’s White Mountains to the Libyan Sea. Starting early, you’ll travel through picturesque villages to reach the Omalos Plateau. The approximately six-hour hike features constantly changing, breathtaking scenery, leading down to the coastal village of Agia Roumeli, only accessible by boat. After the hike, you can swim and enjoy a rustic lunch at a local taverna. A ferry to Sfakia and a transfer back to your hotel in Chania conclude the day, arriving in the late evening.
