15 Best Balos & Elafonisi Beach Tours

“We had SUCH a fun day on this trip, the boat crew were super nice & the beaches we visited were stunning. I took my 3year old & we did take a pram for her, but just be aware, you can't really take the prams…”

“It was a really nice day! We started with a walk to a cave and some refreshments. We then went to Elafonissi, which was beautiful! It was hot, so bring sunscreen, hats, etc. however we were given more than enough time to enjoy and there…”

“Amazing trip, breathtaking beaches especially in Balos, not as good in Gramvousa because of the layer of long rocks underwater across the whole beach,watershoes are a must I'd say, nice little hike up to the top to see the ruin of the fortress though ,…”

“Balos is very beautiful, but a bit too overcrowded. Gramvousa is just a rocky island with a rocky beach. Still, the trip is well organized and a good way to spend a day of your holiday.”

“Lazarus&Dimitri made my day. Elafonissi is little paradise with pink sand. We enjoyed every moment. Food in little village elos was delicious, especialy I recomended goat tsigariastó (stew goat with vine and herbs). You need to see while there is still some pink sand.”

“This was quite an experience. I would advise anyone who chooses the excursion to do the hike and see the castle. The views at the top are magnificent. I'm not really a hiking person but I'm glad I did as the hike was worth it.…”

“Elafonisi is so beautiful with pink sands beach’s but it’s crowded! I loved it anyway”

“The beach and island is absolutely beautiful and we did locate some of the famous pink sand (here and there). Our young driver was very skilful navigating the narrow Cretan roads and did a fantastic job at getting us safely to/from the destination. The pickup…”

“Again nothing at all was one of the best experience of my life unbelievable views amazing service all round”

“The trip is great. Balos is beautiful, loads of shallow blue crystal clear water. Ideal for children paddling and adults chilling. There is a small cafe available and lots of bins to put your rubbish in. Sometimes there are goats coming down from the hills…”

“Gramavousa, difficult to travel at the end of the day, I suggest changing the order of the objectives. Attentive guide, very interesting route, Balos is wow, worth it, the Crete is fabulous!”

“great trip. everything ran smoothly. boat was good with lots of shade/air con if you wanted it, food drinks and snacks. Balos was stunning and even with the amount of people didn't seem overly busy as everyone finds there own we part.”

“The trip was excellent. They were very efficient. We checked in quickly. They gave safety instructions and we were on our way to a beautiful and fun excursion”

“It was absolutely amazing! Elizabeta was a really good guide and the excursion was truly out of this world and a must visit! It's worth the money, boat can get crowded and might not have spaces to sit at times but don't be put off…”

“Very good guy girl and driver ! Nice place, beach, restaurant, food. Thank you so much”
