Overview

Discover the highlights of West Crete on a full-day tour. Begin in the charming town of Chania, where you'll explore the picturesque Old Town, Venetian Harbor, narrow alleys, historic monuments, the famous Market, and enjoy free time for shopping or a coffee.

Continue to Lake Kournas, the island's only natural freshwater lake. Surrounded by beautiful scenery and protected by Natura 2000, it's the perfect place for a swim, a relaxing walk, or lunch by the water.

On the return journey, stop in Rethymno, where Venetian and Ottoman influences blend beautifully. Wander through the charming Old Town, admire the historic harbor, and soak up the unique atmosphere before heading back.
