What you can expect

Pick up form Heraklion port for a private shore excursion to two of Crete’s most iconic destinations—the legendary Palace of Knossos and the renowned Archaeological Museum. Dive into Cretan history and marvel at the remnants of one of Europe’s oldest civilisations.

Begin your journey with a visit to the Palace of Knossos. Step back in time 4,000 years to explore the majestic palace buildings, intricate workshop installations, and impressive rock-cut caves and tholos tombs. Learn about the vibrant lifestyle of this ancient centre of trade and economy, which flourished around 2000 BC, connecting with major cities of the Eastern Mediterranean.

Next, visit the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, one of Greece’s largest and most significant museums. Here, you’ll uncover artefacts spanning over 5,500 years of Cretan history, from the Neolithic to Roman times. Admire the treasures of the Minoan civilisation and gain a deeper understanding of Crete’s rich heritage.

This tour offers an unforgettable blend of history, culture, and stunning architecture—perfect for history enthusiasts and curious travellers alike.
