Samaria Gorge
Crete, the largest island in Greece, is a universe in itself. It is a land of epic contrasts, where towering mountains sink into the sea, ancient gorges open onto pink and white sand beaches, and ancient myths come to life among the ruins of ancient palaces. As the cradle of the Minoan civilization, Europe's first advanced civilization, Crete offers an unrivaled journey through time. From the vibrant life of its Venetian cities to the tranquility of its mountain villages and the famous Cretan diet, the island promises an experience rich in history, nature, culture and gastronomy.

Discover the south coast
The southern coast, washed by the Libyan Sea, is wilder, less developed and has some of the most authentic beaches and towns, such as Loutro, Agia Roumeli and Matala.
Don't try to see everything
It's impossible. Pick one or two regions (e.g. Chania and Rethymno) and explore them well rather than spending all your time in the car trying to cover the entire island.
'Phyloxenia' is real
Cretan hospitality is deep and genuine. Accept invitations and gestures with kindness.
Respect traditions
Cretan society, especially in the interior, is traditional and has a strong code of family honor. Be respectful in your dress and behavior, especially when visiting monasteries.
tap water
Tap water is generally safe to drink in cities, but many prefer bottled water for the taste. In rural areas, it is better bottled.
Drive with extreme caution
Mountain roads are narrow, winding and often without protective barriers. Locals drive fast. Take your time and let them get ahead of you.
