Full description
Embark on an enriching exploration by meeting your guide at the Cretan Spiti Travel terminal located at Eleftherias Square in front of Astoria Capsis Hotel at 08:30. Commence your journey with a visit to the renowned Heraklion Archaeological Museum, the second-largest in Greece after the Museum of Athens. Delve into the depths of history starting from the oldest findings of Crete dating back to 6000 BC, and then move on to the captivating Minoan palaces of Knossos, Festos, Mallia, and Zakros. The tour progresses with an exploration of artifacts from cemeteries, shrines, and houses, culminating in the mesmerizing Minoan frescoes of Knossos.
Following the museum visit around 10:30, shift gears to discover the historical city center of Heraklion alongside your expert tour host. Traverse through time and history as you unravel the past and present of a city seamlessly blending old and new. Hear captivating stories about Heraklion, from the performance of the 7th labor of Hercules to the birthplaces of esteemed figures like El Greco and Nikos Kazantzakis. Explore legendary churches, fountains, and monuments including Saint Minas Cathedral, Lion’s Square (indulge in Traditional Cretan Mpougatsa and raki), Tito’s Church, Heraklion Town Hall, Kule’s Fortress, and other Venetian monumental buildings. Conclude your immersive experience by returning to the Astoria Capsis Hotel terminal at 13:00. Uncover the treasures of Heraklion's archaeological wonders and historical gems in this comprehensive and unforgettable tour.
