Carefully designed, escorted Tours of Crete by Living Crete Holidays

“Hello Ann, We still have not woken up yet from our fantastic holiday you organised for us on Crete. We cannot thank you enough, it was the best holiday ever -  more than a 5 star holiday. On a more practical level, neither Ann or myself could fault any of the arrangements, every day was a surprise, but a surprise really enjoyed”

“Ann, everything about this holiday has been excellent; even better than expected. The reception at the airport and transfer to the hotel were totally stress-free. The choice of hotel was really good - from the rooms to the relaxed dining-room and leisure facilities.

The big bonus was staying as a small group, having the same bus and driver and you with us throughout. It was lovely to have a driver - George - who was not only a great driver but made us feel so welcome on his island.

Each trip was really enjoyable and interesting. Your knowledge of the island brought the past and the present to life. We loved the stops in the villages where we felt real Cretan life was seen. We really feel that the variety of places visited was well-chosen. We felt at ease, with no regimentation as sometimes is experienced on coach trips. Thank you again ”

“Our visit to the beautiful island of Crete was a revelation. From our very comfortable hotels, excellent excursions had been arranged; a whole kaleidoscope of the island. A thoroughly enjoyable experience in the hands of an experienced organiser and excellent local driver.”

“Now that we have returned safely home and the dust has settled a little, we just wanted to thank you once again for such a wonderful holiday in Crete. We loved it all, and your attention to detail and such a great programme of visits and excursions was brilliant. It was good to travel in a small group and have such personal attention. We particularly appreciated all the help you and George gave us. We felt the pace of the tour was just right; both hotels were excellent. We definitely fell in love with Crete and its people and hope to return some day. All the best; thanks again. ”

“An intense, interesting, informative "journey" with many highlights. My reflections on the week: Every day was like a piece of jigsaw, which by the end of the week fitted together into a kaleidoscopic scene of Cretan life”

“A fantastic and memorable holiday, revealing the true beauty of the island and warm personality of the people. The itinerary was well-planned, enabling us to see as much of the island as possible in the time allowed - and what an island! I enjoyed every moment. Thank you for making my initial step into holidaying alone such a pleasurable experience.”

“Just a few lines to thank you for your care of me, and for the kindness shown me by George, our excellent driver. Back home, I dream back over the holiday, and in my mind’s eye I see the blue blue sea of Crete and the pink of the oleanders. It is such a beautiful country and I loved every minute of it including the hotel. It is such a relaxed place in which to stay. I just loved it all. Going back a second time just made it all extra special. It was lovely being part of a small group as we became a family in some ways for a week. Thank you, Ann, for a wonderful holiday.”
