Highlights

Meet your guide at the terminal of Cretan Spiti Travel, across from the entrance of the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, in front of Hari’s Creperie, at 11:30 to start exploring the historical city center of Heraklion. Travel through time with your expert tour host and discover a city that combines old and new — the site of the 7th labor of Hercules, the birthplace of painter El Greco and writer Nikos Kazantzakis. On this tour, hear fascinating stories about Heraklion's turbulent past and visit legendary churches, fountains, and monuments such as Saint Minas Cathedral, Lion’s Square (stop to taste traditional Cretan bougatsa and raki), Saint Titus Church, Heraklion Town Hall, Koules Fortress, and other Venetian buildings. Enjoy photo opportunities and experience the local atmosphere of this vibrant city. Return to the Cretan Spiti Travel terminal at 14:00.
