Customer Reviews
We did three tours with this company, Elafonisi, Samaria Gorge, and Balos / Gramvousa and everyone of them was so well organized. Katerina was so helpful and genuine, all the guides where so informative and friendly, and the drivers are the best in town. All we had to do was enjoy them. And enjoy them we did!! We will never forget these adventures! If you are interested in a fair priced, hassle free excursion, I recommend this company.
This is the review of two trips provided by the MCT: Trip 1: Preveli Palm Beach (4,0/5,0) - the Good: well organized, pick up on time, sympathetic guide - the Bad: bus too small (we were packed like sardines), misleading info on pricing: 12€ per person for the return boat trip was not optional so the actual total excursion price was actually 25€+12€ - just to keep this in mind. Trip 2: Day trip to Chania (2,0/5,0) - the Good: it is nothing more but a bus transportation to Chania and back - the Bad: here we are victims of our laziness, instead of spending 27€ per person for this transportation we could take a bus; it should not be called "excursion", the group was abandoned by the guide immediately after the arrival
We had a great time on the Balos- Gramvousa excursion. Mirella tried to tell everyone (in several languages) the historical stories. She told us a lot of interesting information. The boat was a bit crowded, but we got used to it by the end. The history of Gramvousa and of course the beautiful views make it worth the climb up the more than 300 steps. The beach was very nice and the water temperature was pleasant. At Balos the boat stops about 50 metres from the shore and you have to swim out. We had no problems with it, but if you're not sure about floating, take a mattress with you. The coast is incredibly beautiful. And just when we were there, the sand was the same pink colour as Elafonissi. Mirella also took some great pictures of us. We are happy to recommend her to others!
