Day Trips & Excursions in Chania

Get a taste for the idyllic scenery, customs, and culture of the Cretan countryside 11-hour sightseeing trip with a small group.

Afterward, break away from your group and explore the city at your own pace - grab lunch at a local restaurant, walk around the harbor or do some shopping at Old Chania Market.
