Crete guided walking holiday

Planet

When choosing this walking sightseeing cultural tour in Crete, you are choosing a responsible holiday as we as a company are committed to what is called responsible travel.

During this trip our dear guests will have the opportunity to visit some of the major natural and cultural highlights of Crete. National Parks, Protected areas, Archaeological Sites, places with great natural, geological, cultural, and historical value; this is an eco-guided tour and our tour leaders share their wide knowledge on the areas we visit.

We avoid large hotel complexes and instead we book small scale hotels, we travel in small groups and transfers are performed on a minibus, facts which lead to limited impact to the local ecosystem in comparison to a bus.

No single-use recipients are used in our picnics; fabric picnic tablecloth instead of a paper or a plastic one, washable dishes and cutlets. Our guests must have their own picnic set. We encourage our guests to help us clean at least the spot we choose every time for our pick-nic pose. We collect any possible garbage and carried them to the nearest operating bucket.

We avoid the use of plastic water bottles. In most areas the water is drinkable and our guests can fill their flasks with tap water.

Our company promotes ecotourism and sustainable adventure holidays, whilst providing you a unique travel experience.

People

We strongly believe that local people are essential part of each destination, which is primarily their home and so we do whatever is possible not to disturb their lives, their customs and activities and asking our guests to show the same respect. Furthermore, we intend for our trips to be beneficial for the local community, culture and economy.

We strive to educate our travelers about the destination and local culture as well as providing guidelines on appropriate behavior to minimize impact. However, as this is a trip for small groups the negative impact is practically zero.

We work with local people. Our guides are locals, we select small, mainly family-run accommodations and taverns, and we shop for our picnics from small local stores. Our guides and local partners with their expertise and knowledge on the area they will make this trip and unforgettable experience for you.
During this trip, our guests will taste a variety of traditional delicacies of the famous Cretan cuisine, cooked with locally produced ingredients.
We guide you to the beautiful nature and civilization of Crete, in an adventure out of the ordinary.
