About this excursion

Discover Arkadi Monastery, Ancient Eleutherna, the pottery village of Margarites and Rethymno Old Town on a 10-hour private tour. Travel in an air-conditioned vehicle with your own English-speaking local driver and plan the order and balance of visits within the booked duration. Explore the monastery, archaeological heritage, ceramic tradition and Venetian harbour according to opening arrangements. Your driver handles transport and shares local information during the journey. Museum and archaeological-site visits are independent unless a licensed guide has been separately arranged. Public destinations may be busy in peak season.
