September 26Nick SToo short of a great visit to Crete
My wife and booked our own excursion from Chania where are AZAMARA cruise ship docked to & back 2 hours each way to Heraklion by van. It was the highlight of our 10 day cruise. Panos, our guide was terrific and we couldn’t have gotten the full benefit without his expertise and focus. We hope to go back to Crete when we can have more time.
