About This Tour

The Arkadi Monastery is the most important and historic Venetian church in Crete’s history. A symbol of resistance, it played a crucial role in the heroic revolution of the Cretans until their complete liberation. Next, visit the village of Margarites, one of the largest pottery centers in Greece. With a tradition passed down through generations, you may even meet an elder artisan who will demonstrate the art of hand-throwing pots. This picturesque village, with its extraordinary architecture and charming narrow streets, is well worth exploring. After picking everyone up, we will head to Rethymno, a captivating town known for its narrow streets and ancient Venetian architecture. Enjoy four hours of free time to visit the impressive Venetian Fortezza, wander through the charming alleys of the old town, and sample the delicious local cuisine. Additionally, you may choose to go for a swim at the beautiful palm beach, conveniently located near the town center.
