(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Rethymnon Old Town
On the way back, we visit the spiritual and scientific center of Crete, the city of Rethymnon. The charming appearance of the city is determined by narrow streets, where the houses of the Venetian period are distinguished by richly decorated facades, elegant window arches and stone carvings. You may have a lunch in the old harbor with the view to the famous lighthouse.
Kourtaliotiko Gorge
We continue our route along the most beautiful Kourtaliotiko gorge. We recommended to walk on foot the stone path to the mountain river Kourtaliotis, which flows into the Libyan Sea on the south coast. You can visit the church of St. Nicholas of Kourtalioti near the small waterfalls.
The Holy Monastery of Preveli
Perched in high mountains on the south coast of the island resides the imposing monastery of Preveli. In its walls you will discover a magnificent Orthodox shrine - the miraculous silver cross, decorated with gold and precious stones and be enchanted by the views over the Libyan sea. You may also go down by stairs to Preveli beach and virgin Palm Forest for a walk or to swim. Otherwise you just enjoy the view to the Palm Forest and the Beach from the view point. Depending on your preferences we can spend in this location up to 3 hours, but then some other stops shall be shortened (e.g.in the Rethymno city).
