Steeped in ancient myths, Crete really is the stuff of legend. This family-friendly tour is bursting with culture and heritage. You'll be whisked back to the age of Minoan civilisation at the Palace of Knossos, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and visit the Natural History Museum. And there's also free time to explore Crete's capital, Heraklion. Georgios, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The kids will learn everything about King Minos, Daedalus and Icarus, and the fearsome Minotaur.'

Knossos was the hub of Crete's Minoan civilisation and where the Minotaur lurked in his labyrinth. Your guide will give you the lowdown on the ancient myths and kings as you discover the throne room and more. As this tour is geared for the family, you're in for some fascinating mythological stories about Europe's first civilisation. What's more, your ticket contributes to the preservation of this heritage site.

The tour also includes entry to the Natural History Museum. Here, you'll learn about the types of dinosaurs that once roamed the island, and dig for fossils like an archaeologist. Georgios says, ‘The kids will learn about Crete's flora and fauna, and the ecosystems of the eastern Mediterranean.' Afterwards, you'll have a couple of hours to wander around Heraklion, Crete's buzzing capital. See the Venetian lion fountain before some free time for shopping. Head to the open-air market to try local produce or end the day with a relaxing stroll around the Venetian harbour.

Family tour to the mountains of Crete with Mythological Park

This action-packed day brings the essence of Crete to life for all the family. Discover Greek mythology as you explore scenic mountain trails on an off-road adventure leading to the Lassithi plateau. There's a chance to have a go at making ceramics and a visit to the Mythological Park, too. Katerina, one of our expert local guides, enthusiastically says, ‘Lassithi plateau is a personal favourite on this tour. You'll be greeted by the sight of dozens of windmills that dot the landscape. They were built in the 19th century to grind grain, and are now a symbol of the region.'Kick off on a trail which climbs into the mountains to reach the first stop at the Aposelimi dam. From here we'll make our way to a viewpoint where we can see across the Lassithi plateau, a high, fertile plain that legend states was the birthplace of Zeus.Rumbling down to the plateau, we'll head to a ceramics workshop and olive oil producer. It's a fun stop for the kids who will have plenty of time to have a go at making their own pottery creations. Next up is the Mythological park, where you'll find out all about ancient Greek myths - the special lighting and sound effects alongside the audio tour make the park enjoyable for all ages. Round off the day with lunch in a taverna, before calling in at the village of Krassi, which is famous for a 2,000-year old plane tree and has a natural spring water source.
