Our driver, Thanos, and tour guides Christine, and Thalia at Knossos, were all amazing and accommodating. We had an on-time pickup at our hotel in Chania. Smooth drive with videos and good conversation to Knossos. The tour there was wonderful. I’m a history buff but the private tour and passion about the subject also got my mom and wife excited to learn more about the ancient Minoan civilization. It pairs very well with the museum in Heraklion immediately after. They provide a nice boxed lunch that was surprisingly tasty and unique to Crete. We also stopped in Rethymno shortly and made a second stop in Rethymno, per our request, to see their local University. We made it back a bit early, which was great for us. Very comfortable and well worth the money for the private experience.

Enquired, agreed itinerary and price for a group of 6 in June 2024. All details confirmed by email. Deposit paid in June and all Cancellation terms provided. On the day of the Tour, met by the Guide outside the cruise terminal with good signage, received a warm welcome and travelled in a luxurious vehicle. Itineray discussed as previously agreed. Everyone enjoyed the tour and the guide provided excellent commentary throughout the tour - 6 hours tour - Good Value

Awesome experience, worth every penny spent. Highly recommend taking this private tour. Crete is beautiful and amazing; the cultural, the history and mythology. In addition you learn a few words in Greek to enhance your trip.

1000000000000% recommended! We were so well taken care of by them and all of the amenities were great, lunchbox with some local treats, olive and olive oil tasting and amazing views, beautiful beaches. They are incredibly insightful to avoid the most crowded areas and times to give their guests the best possible experience. :) We are eternally grateful for the hospitality and accommodating our pickup outside of their usual pickup zone so that we could join in on this awesome tour. This is something we will always remember! Hugs all the way from Iceland!

I found this tour via TripAdvisor, the reviews are all excellent so I was expecting a good day out but the tour really went above and beyond. The communication from Christina from the moment I'd booked was excellent, clear, friendly and so helpful. Their minibus is very comfy, air conditioned, modern, tv's for the excellent info provided during the drive. The lunch provided was excellent, Cretian pastries and a sandwich & drinks. Christinas knowledge and obvious pride for her heritage shone through, he was so engaging and helpful. The driver, (Kosta I think) was safe and sensible on the windy roads. The tour itself was excellent, we visited Elafonisi and Falasarna beaches then to Vouves to visit the beautiful olive tree and learn more about the olive oil industry on the island. It was just brilliant, faultless and worth every penny. Thank you so much!

We were a group of 8. Our tour was top-notch from the moment our driver picked us up in the luxury van, Throughout the entire tour our driver went beyond his call of duty making sure we were well taken care of. Our guide Christine, felt like a friend the moment we met her. She was very informative and knowledgeable sharing plenty of history. During our day trip, we wanted for nothing. Great food, drinks, and fun tied in with meeting new Friends makes this beach tour a must-do while visiting the island of Crete.

This trip was wonderful from start to finish. Super friendly Christine welcomed us on board a lovely comfortable mini bus. She is so knowledgeable about chania and Crete and shared loads of information...the beaches are stunning but Falsarna was out favourite. Could happily have stayed there all day. The sand was like powder and so soft even in the sea. It was brilliant. Elafonisi is beautiful too. The water is so clear..stunning. The olive factory and visit to the old olive tree was really interesting. They have thought of everything. Free wifi on the bus,really good quality snack box, beach mats and umbrellas for the beach, water, beer, soft drinks...it was perfect from start to finish. Highly recommended

Six of us friends took the trip to the Knossos ruins and the associated museum. Christine and the driver were fabulous. They picked us up at the villa we were staying at in Chania and transported us safely to the sites. Christine was very informative about the history of Crete during the drive. At the Knossos site, we were met by a very informative archeologist that provided extensive detail about the history of the Minoan people and the Knossos site itself. On the way back, Christine arranged for an impromptu fun and informative olive oil tasting at a local olive oil factory. Overall we had a great experience and would highly recommend Christine and the SeabyBus for this experience.

Best trip and provider of our 3 month holiday!! SeaByBus is wonderful-great driver, excellent guide and they go above and beyond to make the trip amazing and comfortable. We even did another one with them the next day. Highly recommend.

2 great beaches, particularly Falasarma which we LOVED. It had very clear turquoise water, sandy beach and swimmable. There was barely any of the pink sand when we were at Elafanosi. We also stopped at an olive oil factory and learned how they make the delicious olive oil and ate samples. We then stopped to see the oldest olive tree in the world and on our travels got to pass through cute small villages. Small group is the way to go! Kuddos your bus driver Christine.

Wonderful tour - the small group saves a lot of time, and both Christine and Athanasios were extremely helpful and knowledgeable

My partner and I spent two weeks in Greece and this tour was one of the absolute highlights. Christine our tour guide was so knowledgeable and presented lots of information in fun and interesting ways on the bus ride between stops. The ride is quite beautiful and the beaches are amazing. The snack box they pack is delicious, as is the olive oil at the tasting. There are great opportunities to buy really excellent honey, olive oil and other locally-made products from stops along the way. Such a unique and delightful experience, I can’t recommend it enough!!

Great day trip, amazing guide, beautiful beaches, AC on the bus, delicious snacks, drinks all the time, beach set with umbrella. Would for sure recommend!

Best tour if you want to see Elafonisi & Falasrna .. Personalised experience (small groups with minivan). Everything as promised : wifi, snacks, lots of drinks, A/C on board, umbrellas & mats. Smooth ride. Driver was knowledgable and drive was almost smooth and easy. Special thanks goes to Christine Moraitaki who was the perfect guide and went well out of her way to ensure that we were comfortable. Also along the way , she provided an excellent insight into Cretan traditions with the help of videos . Also, you get to see an olive plantation with the olive oil making process, as well as the oldest olive tree in the world. If you go to Crete, this tour is a must-do !!

This was a great experience, our guides were very nice, extremely accommodating and very informative. Loved this excursion! Worth every penny!
