Best places: Things to dos in Mournies, Greece

👍👍 So before coming to Crete I had read the rave reviews about this Quad Safari so decided to book for the 3 of us to go. Well the rave reviews do not do this experience justice! It was amazing. From start to finish we had so much fun, the guides were great and helpful with George being a real highligh...

Historic house museum commemorating prominent 20th-century Greek politician Eleftherios Venizelos.

👍👍 Very interesting guided tour - thank you Nic ! They probably produce the best olive oil of the island. Little shop there where you can get local production back home . Little restaurant overlooking the beautiful mountains, very tasty. 100% recommended

Venetian-built between 1320–1356, this busy harbor includes a restored lighthouse, shops & eateries.

Small museum crammed with players' jerseys & memorabilia celebrating Greece's Euro 2004 triumph.

👍👍 Beautiful place and definitely worth visiting but few things you should have in mind. 1. It’s around 15km. It’s mostly downhill and few uphills are so easy that you won’t even notice them but remember it’s 15km (10miles) walk on the rocky terrain. That’s a lot of you not regular hiker of fit person....

Venetian lighthouse originally built in the 16th century & later modified by the Egyptians in 1839.

👍👍 Beautiful nature reserve. Starting from the Omalos plateau you can walk the Samaria gorge, or go up to the Gingalos peak (tough walk, no shade, fantastic scenery) or walk up to the Kallergi refuge and continue on a part of the E4 track from there (some of which is not difficult, some is challenging)...

👍👍 Lovely space & atmosphere, the owner Stelios was so kind & friendly, you can really tell he cares about all the animals he looks after! The €5 entry fee goes towards his reptile rescue service! I was scared of snakes before going here, I was immediately put at ease by Stelios! An amazing experience,...

🫤 The old archeological museum had more character. This one looks sterile with gray drywalls. The collection is not so rich, if you compare it with museums like Acropolis museum. The 6€ admittance is a little bit too much for such a museum, it would me more fair to pay around 2€. Unfortunately you wil...

👍👍 Amazing place! You need to speak a little bit English so they can give you a tour. The girl who gave us the tour was very nice and sweet. She told us about the history, about the bees and honey making and how they do it. We tasted three different kinds of money they make, two nut spreads with honey...

Rugged area with rustic gravel roads & hikes to dramatic, cliff-backed beaches & tucked-away caves.

👍👍 A small gem 15 min outside Rethymno city. Under mulberry trees that offer great shadow for the hot summer it is a perfect place to try delicious dishes. For sides, we tried the local cretan rusk with tomato and feta which was Amazing and the eggplant which was super sweet. Plain Apaki but also the...

👍👍 Nice sightseeing. Scary if you have a fear for heights. Another crazy Gorge in Crete. 20 years ago,before the bridge was built, people had to go up and down the gorge to cross and if it rained they were not able to do so for days. There is a pathway near the bridge

👍👍 If you are traveling by car in the direction of the Palast of Phaistos, then we recommend stopping by this nunnery. The monastery is working and therefore you can meet nuns on the territory. Interesting to watch their faces - such bright faces, whitened with gray hair and worldly wisdom. We vis...

👍👍 The most beautiful area for a cooking class, outside with amazing views. Lovely experience, very hands on with all the cooking. All staff were so friendly and our tour guide was great and full of information of Crete and the islands history. Food was delicious!!! Would 100% recommend!

👍 I recommend you bring good shoes, snacks, sunscreen & a swimming suit so you can swim when you arrive to the Agia Roumeli beach. It took us 6 hours to arrive to the beach and that is including 45 minutes of stops/breaks. We started the trail at 10 am and we arrived to the beach at 4 pm. We swam in...

Turquoise water & white sand draw visitors to this famed lagoon accessible by boat or hike.

Swimming is popular at this remote sandy beach in a cove surrounded by rock formations.
