“Well worth a trip to Spinalonga. A well thought out tour with guide Mickel, who was very knowledgeable about the area. Stopped off at great beauty spots for photos and little gems of local information. The speed boat trip to Spinalonga was well organised and we could spend as little or as long as we'd like there. The stop at olive oil factory was a great addition to the tour for some gift buying. All topped off with a fantastic meal at a traditional taverna. Being picked up and dropped off at hotel made sure you could relax and just enjoy the day stress free.”
