Very knowlegeable guide and informative tour. Bring water with you when you tour Knossos - its very hot even early in the day and there is little shade.

Akrivi Chatzigeorgiou’s expert guiding services provided us with a well organized and highly informative tour of Knossos and the Herakion Archeological Museum. She is well spoken and provides interesting commentary. She can speak to those with a deep interest in Minoan & Greek history or those looking for an introduction. She knows Knossos and the museum very well, and avoids the crowds, when possible, making the experience much more enjoyable. She provided door to door service for us from our hotel, making the experience seamless. Thank you Akrivi! It was a highlight of our Greek tour. We normally would not spend the extra for a private guide, but this experience was well worth it.

The owner of the tour business, Yannis, picked us up at the hotel and drove us to Knossos. Yannis impressed us with his friendliness and professionalism. He promised a good tour with a trained archaeological guide, and we were not at all disappointed. At Knossos, Eleni guided us through the ruins of the Minoan Palace at Knossos, making sense of the layout of the building complex. She provided the political, social, and economic context behind the Minoans. This was especially helpful in understanding their civilization. Following the tour of the Palace at Knossos, we were driven to the archaeological museum, where Eleni walked us through the museum, explaining and discussing the museum’s most significant exhibits. After a fascinating two hours with Ellen at the museum, we were free to continue looking through the rest of the museum, which is excellent. Everyone, from Yannis (the owner) to Eleni (the archaeological guide) to Demetria (who checked us in at the Palace), was exceptionally friendly and professional. One could not possibly hope for a better crew! Well done to all! In all, this tour should be mandatory for anyone interested in the history of the Minoans.

Fantastic site, bigger than I expected and lots of information available. It was very busy so be prepared to queue . Shops close by too for souvenirs or drinks etc We went by open top tour bus, the open top bus was nice but not worth the extra..could have just used a bus directly to Knossos
