Overview

Our journey begins with a short cruise to Spinalonga Island from the small port of Elounda or Plaka. Along the way, you'll enjoy stunning views of eastern Crete’s landscapes before reaching this historic island.

After exploring Spinalonga, we can visit Elounda or enjoy a delicious lunch in Plaka, a charming seaside village known for its fresh fish restaurants. Elounda, once a traditional fishing village, is now considered the most prestigious area in Crete, famous for its luxury hotels, boutique shops, and picturesque waterfront restaurants.

To complete our experience, we will visit Agios Nikolaos, the capital of the Lassithi region. This small yet picturesque town is home to Lake Voulismeni, a natural lagoon wrapped in myths and legends. Here, you can enjoy a leisurely walk and take in the charming atmosphere.

Throughout the journey, we can adjust the tour to your preferences, visiting an Olive Farm, Amazonas Park for kids, or any other place we decide together!

Activity itinerary

Spinalonga (Kalydon)

2h
Admission ticket not included

The fortress of Spinalonga was built in 1579 by Venetians to protect the Gulf of Elounda from Ottomans and was considered one the strongest Venetian Defensive Structures in the Mediterranean. In 1715 finally the Ottomans conquered it becoming a small town for many Muslim families. In 1903 all the population of the island was evacuated because the Greek turned it to an isolated leper colony serving as a refuge for people suffering from Hansen’s disease up to 1957. Today, the island remains a powerful historical site, drawing thousands of visitors as a reminder of human resilience and isolation.

Elounda is a beautiful seaside town on the northeastern coast of Crete, known for its clear blue waters, traditional charm, and luxury hotels. Despite being a traditional fishing village, it is also a popular destination, attracting visitors who seek both authenticity and comfort. Even with its high-class hotels, Elounda still keeps its authentic Cretan character, with a small harbour, friendly locals, and cosy tavernas by the sea.

Agios Nikolaos

The lake, surrounded by cafes and legends, adds a unique character to the town, making it a perfect place for a peaceful walk. Agios Nikolaos combines traditional Cretan charm with a chilled vibe, offering visitors a mix of local culture, seaside beauty, and cosy shops and restaurants.
