Overview

We begin our journey at Knossos Palace, the ancient kingdom of the mighty King Minos, where legends of the Minotaur and the labyrinth come to life! As you walk among ruins full of stories waiting to be discovered, you'll sense the spirit of an extraordinary civilization.

After Knossos, we adjust the tour based on your mood.

• Hungry for more history? Let's visit the Archaeological Museum!

• Want to explore Crete’s vibrant capital, Heraklion? We'll take a pleasant walk through its lively city center.

• Curious to explore a traditional village? Let's head to Archanes, known for its picturesque streets and charming architecture. It's also famous for its vineyards, making it the perfect spot for a local winery tour.

Want to do something different? Just let us know in advance or on the spot, and we'll offer you all the options to match your desires so you can decide where to go next.

One thing's for sure – we'll do our best to ensure you're satisfied throughout the entire itinerary!

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
