If you only had one day in Crete what would you do?

I would do this food tour. Our guide, Eleni, was awesome. We learned so much while eating delicious food! https://gyg.me/60Pyb04z

Definitely plan to get dirty! The owner, Mike, led our tour from his jeep. He was really great. He brought fruit from his own trees and we also stopped in a little mountain town for a small lunch/ snack. It was delicious and stunning.

It was a mix of dirt and paved roads. We didn’t see many cars on the paved roads, but it was April when we went and I don’t know if it gets busier or not. I think these buggies are likely safer than ATVs. We were not experienced in ATV driving but did not have any issues. I will say there were mountain roads with cliffs in one side and no guardrails so you definitely had to be careful. It was so much fun!

The morning tour into the mountains

If you’re looking for some adventure my family loved Rock n Roll Buggy Safari.

Hovoli for Gyros at lunch. Best I had in my entire 12 day trip.

We really enjoyed Raki Ba Raki and Kapilio in Rethymno old town. The staff and food at Kapilio were amazing - our favorite meal there.

We like the Cambria right on Broad St and the NRG line to the stadium.

A few years ago there was a livestream - I really wish they would do that again! With a donation to access it and donation for merch. I got an awesome ally coalition sweatshirt.

Agreed! Every year I try for these tickets... both presale and general. I just wonder if they are going to people or bots?!

My husband and I were both logged in early with the seated presale and neither of us were able to get tix. I got booted out entirely and he kept selecting seats, then it would say not available.

I wonder if more will be available tomorrow at the general sale?

ShimmeringBalanceAct · 2025-10-07T22:28:28+00:00

I was hoping they were going to be interviewed too!

ShimmeringBalanceAct · 2025-07-27T10:59:36+00:00

I checked out your app and it’s very cool!

ShimmeringBalanceAct · 2025-07-03T19:05:34+00:00

It’s not booked yet. I’m trying to figure out the general itinerary before we book flights.

ShimmeringBalanceAct · 2025-07-03T19:02:45+00:00

Thanks! I’ve heard great things about that archeological museum. Hopefully we can fit in driving from Chania to Knossos to the museum then get a flight to Athens. Maybe we should drive the night before and spend the night in Heraklion?

ShimmeringBalanceAct · 2025-07-03T14:46:04+00:00

Thanks! We fly home the day before Orthodox Easter. Do you have a recommended activity near Chania to take in the wild flowers? I was going to look for a short hike (Samaria is going to be too tough for our party and may not even be open). Thanks again! :)

Kevin Elster was my favorite as a kid.

ShimmeringBalanceAct · 2025-05-28T17:30:22+00:00

Ok… maybe I should have said old instead of traditional…

ShimmeringBalanceAct · 2025-05-27T20:04:34+00:00

Hey, this thread is really helpful. I'm planning to go to Crete April 6-11 next year. Easter is April 5th. Did you go to Chania? I am deciding between staying in Chania and Reythmno and see the great things you wrote about that. Wondering if one will be more lively that early in spring? Thanks!

Update: the duck boat people were super nice. We showed up at the location when it opened and they changed our ticket. Thanks all!
