A guide to recommend - A very rewarding and lively visit after reading Victoria Hislop's novel. Our guide Amalia has increased our interest even more thanks to his knowledge, culture, enthusiasm and cheerfulness. A real pleasure to have shared this day with her!

Elounda, Spinalonga & Agios Nicolae plus lunch! - Excellent value for money! We were picked up from our hotel on time & taken to Elounda where we picked up our boat. We were taken to a small beach for a swim before lunch & then went to Spinalonga, where we had the option to visit the island or go for another swim. We then headed back to Elounda & were taken to Agios Nicolae where we had an hour to explore. A fabulous full day out.

Spinalonga Island Tour - Very nice excursion to the island of Spinalonga. With a very good organization. Very good rhythm between visits, swimming to relax and lunch on the boat. Our guide was great, passionate!
I recommend this tour

Spinalonga trip - Boat trip as described though note the destination is simply a remote bay. Visit to Agios Nicolas is too brief for full appreciation of the town.

Interesting experience, but with details to adjust - The tour was generally very good. The experience of arriving by boat on the island and being able to swim in those crystal clear waters is really wonderful. However, when visiting the island of Espilaronga, if you do not access the interior, the options are quite limited, especially considering that admission costs 20 €. It would therefore be advisable to offer an alternative plan for those who chose not to enter.
The food was fine and the rest of the day was nice too. It should be noted, however, that the guides, both the guides conducting the tour in English and the guides giving the instructions in Polish, were not particularly friendly. The information they provided was scarce and did not contribute to a more enriching experience.
