Cruise from Kissamos to Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa, swim in emerald water, hike to a Venetian castle, and enjoy Cretan views.
“It was a large boat, more like a ferry, but it took us to Balos Lagoon and to Gramvousa, The ferry moored right on the beach an we were able to get off without needing to get in the water. Food on board was OKish.”
A challenging Samaria Gorge hike from Chania with smart guides, park education, and a breezy ferry finish to Sougia.
“The organization was great — everything ran smoothly from start to finish. No waiting, no confusion, and clear instructions throughout the day. The guide spoke very good English and was professional, though she was a bit on the pragmatic side, spending about 40 minutes going through the don’ts. It made sense given the nature of the hike, but it felt a bit disengaging at first. The hike itself is stunning and reaching the sea at the end feels incredibly rewarding. However, I would definitely rate the difficulty as advanced for casual hikers and moderate for those who are very experienced. A very important note: wear proper hiking shoes. This is…”

Sail by catamaran from Kissamos to Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa, with small-group comfort, Cretan food, and swim stops plus drinks included.
“We had an exceptional day on our catamaran trip. The crew – Yanny, Dimitri, and Jessica – were incredibly kind and attentive, always making sure we were comfortable. They truly took care of us from start to finish. The food served on board was fresh, delicious, and of excellent quality. This activity is absolutely worth it: by choosing the catamaran, we avoided the crowds of the larger boats and enjoyed a more intimate and pleasant experience. The two beaches we visited, Balos and Grand Vousa, were simply stunning and unforgettable. A memorable experience we would highly recommend!”

“We had the most amazing sailing sunset cruise. The food was incredible, and a lot of consideration for the weather conditions, and our family. The boat fits 12 people, but we where so lucky (with eleven people) to have it all to ourselves. Once we arrived at this amazing island, there was fantastic snorkeling gear, food, unlimited drinks and paddle boarding. I can HIGHLY recommend working with this company, and their crew. They made our trip worth while!”
