Private tour of East Crete With Retro Classic Luxury Car
Made famous also by Victoria Hishop’s homonymous novel, Spinalonga (The island) bears way more history than its size would ever suggest. Being a Venetian Fortress overseeing the Bay – Port of Elounda as well as a later leper Colony, “The island” is basically a nutshell full of our past!
We'll drive through the thin stripe of land connecting the village of Elounda with its peninsula (forming tha bay) and see the mesmerizing Sunken City of Olous from up close.
Elounda being one of the most beautiful places / beaches of the north of Crete, and St. Nicolas with its famous narrow walking streets, lake cafes and local agora, will definitely complete the experience of a nice day’s trip.
Throughout the day, most of the drives from place to place will be interesting and scenic and you'll always be able to stop at any place you feel like stoping at!
Agios Nikolaos, Elounda and Plaka are all full of nice traditional (or not) places for Lunch, Coffee and Snacks!

What's included in Private tour of East Crete With Retro Classic Luxury Car
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Agios Nikolaos
Agios Nikolaos, being the smallest of the four main cities of Crete, resembles more a cosmopolitan little town than an actual city. Like many other places in Crete, the town traces its modern roots all the way back to the Venetian Era, when it was already imagined and built as a cosmopolitan and touristic atraction of a town. Built by the coast and around a lake, it's a perfect place for a morning-midday coffe, walk around and maybe indulging in little bit of shopping!
Mirabello BayPass-by Only
A pass by the bay of Mirabello, on the way to Elounda by the coastal road

Elounda... One of the most beautiful places of the north of Crete! The magnificent bay of Elounda, once home of the ancient sunken city of Olous, later a grand Venetian port and home of the famous Spinalonga, today serves as one of the most prestigious touristic destinations in all of crete! Full of nice tavernas, restaurants, beaches and atractions, Elounda could very well be a daytrip of its own!
