Petra and Sofia from Destination Platanias made our vacation ten times better. They are super friendly and helpful. We booked our trip to Elafonissi, Falassarna, Menies beach and Balos beach through them. And for that we got a much better trip. the guides on the tour provided extra information and local knowledge we wouldnt know without them. The price was reasonable and 100% worth the money! Will use them again on our next trip. Cathrine Aug 2022, TripAdvisor
"A Great Introduction to Crete"
We took the honey and cheese tasting tour and it was fantastic. Along the way our tour guide gave us loads of information about the area and we stopped at various places to take photos of the stunning views.
At the farm the owner gave us a very detailed talk about how he produces his honey, cheese, yogurt, raisins, olive oil, wine and raki. It was humbling to meet someone so passionate about producing such pure high quality organic food and we learned so much about bees!
I’d highly recommend this tour and the staff are all so helpful and friendly. Rob Apr 2023, TripAdvisor
