In the summer months, I am often asked by travellers what they can discover in the area.
They don't want package deals from large providers à la mass excursions and ask for ...

insider tips,
lesser-known places,
typical local flair.

During the low tourist season, however, between the beginning of November and mid-April,
there are neither all-inclusive offers for travellers, nor sufficient...

Information on events and seasonal customs,
advice on weather conditions and alternative
alternative activities,
a guarantee that tavernas and sights will be open for visitors.

As a qualified and knowledgeable travel companion I would like to ...

  • accompany you to lesser known but special places in the east of the island,
  • introduce you to seasonal customs and crafts,
  • familiarise you with the habits and traditions as well as the history of the inhabitants,
  • suggest alternatives to the agreed plan if your needs change, if the weather is not suitable for the planned activity or if the local offers change in any other way,
  • make reservations for you regarding

accomodation

rental vehicles

catering

  • organise other leisure activities and amenities for you
  • and much more.

And now it gets a little more specific with the popular w-questions:

When do I offer my services?

From October to June I would like to offer you my services as a travel companion
for day trips and round trips (from 4 days).

I would highly recommend the months of November and December: the air and water are still pleasantly warm, the number of rainy days and hours is, from experience, very manageable and the number of visitors is limited to exceptions ...

In the months from June to October we can gladly arrange day trips together.

 

Where and from where do the excursions take place?

For day trips our starting point is Elounda / Agios Nikolaos (map area 1) and our excursions take place in the area of central Lasithi
(map area 2).

I offer round trips in the entire Lasithi area up to the east coast (map area 3).

If you book a round trip or 3 or more day trips with me, I will be happy to pick you up from Heraklion airport and bring you back there.
