  • 5The best trip to Spinalonga.

    Everything about this trip was excellent. Andreas, our driver/guide was superb, informative, knowledgeable and very helpful. The speedboat trip to Spinalonga was perfect and helped us bypass the crowds. Lunch was a feast of beautifully prepared and presented food. Delicious. We were 3 couples of different languages, but Andreas managed the differences excellently. A wonderful day we will treasure for a long time. Only slight suggestion is to allow half an hour longer on Spinalonga, as it felt a bit rushed. Many thanks to Andreas for his help through tunnels as my husband is sight impaired.

  • 5We really enjoyed the...

    We really enjoyed the day, our tour guide was very knowledgable, frequently stopping to show us local plants, animals, birds. We saw vultures and a farmer feeding his sheep and goats near a rural village. Great explanation of the Island. The speedboat to Spinalonga was fabulous as it meant no queuing or waiting around in the heat amongst the crowds. Lovely lunch in a local spot with sea views, plenty of cold water provided throughout the day and and a/c in the car. A great day, thank you.

  • 5Spinalonga withHeorge

    Our guide George was fabulous, talked about the history of the island, turned us into olive experts, we couldn't have asked for more from him. The island itself was very interesting you do really need to go round with others you are on trip with this is self guided. Lunch was ok found it a bit salty though, would have been nice to have options to what to eat. Visit to i e factory was good George explained everything wonderfully. The cave in all honesty has a sad story but felt you didn't need to see it. George had mixed group english and french he was very professional as the French couple did not speak English so he explained everything in English and French. Maybe not having mixed language group would be better so that no one feels time is being spent more wirh one group.

  • 5Great way to spend a day

    A great day out. Enjoyed the whole trip including the drives between stop off points. Good chance to see a bit more of Crete. Lunch was good. Our guide, George was great and it was lovely to be in a small group, especially for the boat trip to Spinalonga.

About Agios Nikolaos

Agios Nikolaos is a harbour town on Crete's Gulf of Mirabello, built around a small round lake and a ring of cafés, with Spinalonga island nearby.

Agios Nikolaos wraps around a hillside above Mirabello Bay in eastern Crete. At its heart is Lake Voulismeni, a small, almost circular pool linked to the harbour by a narrow channel and ringed by cafés and tavernas. Fishing boats and yachts fill the marina, and the town's small beaches, folk museum and archaeological museum lie within a short walk.
