Susan
The best experience of the entire vacation. Highly recommended. A real hidden gem, and despite the crowds, incredibly relaxed and pleasant. Manus and Myros did a fantastic job. Afterwards, you could purchase a 60-minute video or link as a souvenir.

Fantastic Jeep Safari Experience! We joined a group of German tourists, but we were lucky to have our own personal guide, as we were the only couple who preferred English. Our guide was super friendly and communicative, sharing many interesting facts about Crete and village life in perfect English. We really enjoyed exploring the mountain areas — it was something special for us, as there are no mountains in our home country, Latvia. The lunch was very tasty, and all the instructors were friendly and welcoming, which we appreciated a lot, since people in our country tend to be more reserved. It was a great joy to have such an experience, and as the cherry on top, there was the cheerful guide with the camera capturing the fun moments. An amazing team and an unforgettable adventure! Ευχαριστούμε για την εμπειρία, Σάντα και Ρίχαρντ από τη Λετονία!

Everything was fun and an awesome experience. Guides were professional and the locals were very friendly. Huge thanks to guides Manos and especially Zidane, the best. I recommend to have a hat and water with you. The cars have a manual gear, kind of old but they work pretty good. Overall a perfect day.
