Private Boat Trip Sfakia - Domata (price per Group of 9)
This full day Domata Agios Pavlos boat trip offers you unique views and access to some of the most secluded and remote beaches along southwest Crete. Most of the places you visit during the day have no road access and are only accessible by boat or on foot! Starting in Chora Sfakion (or Loutro), we set off for the furthest beaches of the day, Domata, Fournoti and Kalogeros. The distant view of Crete from the boat enables us to take in the island´s majestic high peaks and imposing gorges that plummet into the deep blue sea. With a 99% chance of there being nobody else on the beach, we enjoy an undisturbed swim. From then on, we travel back along the coastline stopping at any remote beach we fancy! We visit the Byzantine chapel of Agios Pavlos on its deserted beach and stop for lunch at the marble beach of Marmara or at the picturesque fishing village of Loutro. Finally we have a last swim at the refreshing Sweet Water (Glyka Nera) beach before returning to Sfakia.

Private Tour: Soap, Olive Oil & Lyrarakis Winery with Lunch
Your day begins at 09:30, leaving the coast for the quiet roads of rural Crete. First stop: a small soap workshop, where olive oil and herbs are shaped by steady, practiced hands. Then, at a family olive mill, you follow the path from fruit to “liquid gold” and taste fresh extra virgin olive oil in its purest form. Next comes Lyrarakis Winery, surrounded by vineyards that hold stories older than the island’s roads. A guided tour through the vines and cellar leads to a tasting of five wines, each carrying the character of its ancient grape varieties. The experience closes in Peza Village with a traditional Cretan lunch at Peteinos Alaniaris—honest dishes, generous flavors, and the kind of hospitality that lingers. After lunch, your driver brings you back through the countryside, an unhurried finish to a grounded, genuine day.

Knossos Palace - Private Tour Experience
Knossos! What an enchanting place! This is simply a must visit site in Crete if history, culture, and myth are of any interest to you at all. Hire a guide to help bring the place to life. It is harder to get a true sense of the place without the guidance and knowledge of experienced guides. There is signage but it is simplistic and limited only sharing a fraction of what you're actually seeing and why. A private tour of Knossos Palace is a great way to experience one of the most iconic archaeological sites in Crete with more depth and fewer crowds than a large group tour.
