Not every walk on Crete is a gorge slog, so I’ve gathered the gentler guided walks here, city strolls and village paths among them. Chania rewards a slow lap of its Venetian harbour lanes before the day heats up. Most tours last two to three hours at an easy pace.
Discover the ancient wonders of Knossos with this guided skip-the-line tour in Crete. Enjoy expert insights, fewer crowds, and a captivating history lesson.
