Co się spodziewać
"Der Palast von Knossos ist eine der wichtigsten archäologischen Stätten auf Kreta, denn hier begann die erste europäische Zivilisation", sagt Veta, eine unserer ortskundigen Tourguides. Als gebürtige Einheimische kennt sie sich bestens mit den Legenden und Mythen aus, die sich um die beliebteste Attraktion der Insel ranken. Tauchen Sie für einen Tag in die Geschichte des Palastes ein, bevor Sie nach Heraklion übersetzen und etwas Freizeit in der Hauptstadt verbringen.Der Palast von Knossos war einst das Zentrum der minoischen Zivilisation auf Kreta und befindet sich im Herzen der ältesten Siedlung Europas. Bei einer Führung durch die Schätze des Palastes besichtigen Sie den Thronsaal, die königlichen Gemächer, die Fresken und vieles mehr. Und dank des bevorzugten Eintritts gibt es keine Warteschlangen.Nach diesem Besuch fahren Sie weiter in die Inselhauptstadt Heraklion. Bei einem geführten Stadtspaziergang besichtigen Sie den Morosini-Brunnen aus dem 17. Jahrhundert und die 400 Jahre alte venezianische Loggia, die zum Rathaus umfunktioniert wurde. Zum Abschluss des Tages nehmen wir Sie mit auf den Markt, wo Sie etwas Zeit zur freien Verfügung haben. Stöbern Sie an den Ständen mit handgefertigtem Schmuck und frischen Produkten aus der Region oder entspannen Sie in einem der herrlichen Cafés und beobachten Sie das geschäftige Treiben. Auch die Festung Koule und die Agios-Titos-Kirche sind einen Besuch wert.

We had Maria as our guide and she was the highlight of the trip. She was knowledgable and passionate and really brought Knossos and its myths alive. She gave time to rest in the shade as it was a hot day without letting us miss anything. Knossos was busy but manageable and Maria pointed out so many points of interest in Knossos and Heraklion. Would recommend

No free time in Knossos.. literally had 10 mins at the end of the guided tour. Also ticket stated that we had to bring passports which were not looked at. With 2 7 year old to watch we could have done without the extra worry of carrying passports around unnecessarily.

Knossos was too full with very large cruise ship group passengers. Tui knows this is a problem as I've seen the same problem on recent reviews . The guide told us that Tui knew it was a problem. I wonder why then, times are not changed. We saw little of what we paid for because of long queues. Tui could probably work out times when cruise ships are likely to be in. When we arrived, we were rushed by the guide to join another group and she said we were 45 minutes late and wasn't welcoming.

The palace tour was interesting, although we did have to queue for a while in the hot sun to see the throne room. The ear pieces worked well throughout. There was enough time in Heraklion and we were able to peruse at our leisure. The tour guide kept the tour interesting.

It's not TUIs fault that Knossos is hugely overcrowded, which was the biggest issue. But at Knossos, I think I would have preferred the option of a guide book and 2 1/2 hours to wander, rather than the endless chatter from the guide through the ear piece provided, with 15 minutes at the end to try to go back to the bits that were worth pictures. No disrespect to the guide, but I think the option of "DIY" should be offered.

I didn't enjoy the tour of the palace and felt I should have saved a bit of money by going on a tour that just gave more free time there. The problem was the group was far too large. I was so far behind the tour guide that as she spoke nothing she said correlated with what we were looking at. As a result, I felt I learnt very little about the place and it was very frustrating.

It was a very good day, with lots of information given. The fact that the guide held a space in the que for part of the tour whilst an adult with children could stand in the shade as had a que of 45 mins on a very hot day. Some more temporary shade spots for hot days at Knossos Palace would be handy for hot days

Personally Heraklion wasn’t for us. We did have a poor experience eating lunch giving my wife stomach problems. The tour guide however was an absolute credit to the company. She personally walked her to the chemists and even went in to the chemist to explain the issue. Absolutely fantastic. I would potentially look to include lunch from a reputable establishment known to the business as choosing places to eat in a short space of time in a big town can be stressful.

This tour was really great value for money. Our tour guide Maria was so knowledgable and friendly, we learned so much about the history of Crete and the mythology. We visited in August so it was very busy but never felt too crowded. The one downside was the many trips to other hotels to pick up other guests. We spent 5 hours total on the bus from Elounda. It was nice to see some other resorts and my daughter could sleep so not all bad! I would still recommend it for the info and convenience.

We enjoyed the trip, but was disappointed to find out that we paid £51 each for our children and entrance to Knossos was free for them so £102 for a bus was very expensive and not value for money at all. The guide was very good, although she did depart before dropping off anyone at the hotel which is the first time I’ve seen that. Plenty of time for shopping, overall good but not happy with price for children

My son is 13 and we had to pay more for him thank my 9 year old due apparently due to his age meaning the prices being considered an adult by the Palace. It was very clear that his entrance to sites was free as he as under 18. There is no need to charge extra for children over 12. The ticket had 0 and we were told that under 18s are free at all Greek sites. The cruise ships being in meant the site was so busy so you couldn’t really take you time and look at stuff.

The pick up point was an hours journey from where I was staying so I cancelled at the last minute. TUI staff phoned me the evening before to confirm I would get a refund but was then refused the refund when I returned to the UK as I had no proof that the phone call had happened. TUI staff phoned me so I had no choice in the communication medium but that was then used to refuse refund. Terribly planned excursion and extremely disgraceful customer service upon return to the UK.

Worthwhile trip so you know the history. Great! We were further back going through the town and with so much noise, felt like we may have missed some information. We did enjoy the town and shopping eating experience was very nice. Recommending the tour and Pobi and the driver. Enjoyed the day ththoroughly. :):)

It was too crowded. Queuing in sun for half hour to see one tiny room for 2 minutes not good. Not Tui fault that 3 cruise ships where visiting. But surely different timing would mean we weren’t there at midday when at busiest.

The Palace tour was very interesting, our guide Irene was very knowledgeable. We went on 1st July and it was very hot to be stood outdoors at midday, we suggest you start the tour a bit earlier in the day during the high summer months. There wasn’t much to do in Heraklion as there wasn’t really the time to visit the Museum. So if the tour started earlier and then finished a bit later it would allow time to visit the Museum and do it justice.

The highlight was supposed to be Knossos Palace visit. It was very busy so no fault of the guide, however after her tour there was less than half an hour of free time given to explore the ruins (minus 10 minutes queuing for toilet!). Then to be given 3 hours in Heraklion was too much time. The balance was no good in my opinion. The Palace was what I had booked the trip for. Disappointed.

Knossos palace was much too crowded, why go there on days when you know cruise ships will be arriving? The guide was very knowledgeable but unfortunately it was too much information to take in. I would have liked more time to explore at my own pace. It was an eleven hour day for us, but most of that time was take up with picking up and dropping off other passengers.

The pick up point for Golden Bay Apartments was Gournes Church which was a 30 minute uphill walk. We took a taxi there but our coach driver kindly took us back to the hotel at the end of the day. The pick up point should be the hotel or closer than 30 mins away. Apart from that point it was a very good day with a very knowledgeable guide and driver.

Excellent tour guide Maria, very enthusiastic and made Knossos much more interesting than if we had visited by ourselves. The 3 hour each way transfer from Elounda is really too long, you should consider running a separate bus from Malia and Hersonissos. The location map for pickup points is incorrect in Elounda as the bus stopped in the square not where the markers were for Manos or Elounda Church. If it stops at Manos, put the marker there!

The coach was late so it was all a bit rushed around knossos she could have cut down on some of the talk so we had more time to explore at the end. As it turned out we only had half hour to visit toilets and get back to the coach. When we got to heraklion she just walked us down one street and then left us to it, bit disappointed ??

Guide was good and enthusiastic. It was a shame there was a delay getting into the Palace due to new policy of proving children's ages so time spent rallying around to get ID. The pace of the tour felt slow and ear piece useful though annoying but we came away with some facts and idea of how Palace once stood. Pace a bit slow at Heraklion as just wanted to venture out and have lunch but overall it was value for money especially cost of transportation.

Tour guide was excellent, very knowledgeable and friendly. Just the right amount of information and depth for us. We were lucky that the trip wasn't on the hottest day so standing in the queues for the throne room etc wasn't a problem. Good to get some free time in Iraklion and found great place for lunch. It's a shame a short guided visit to the Archaeological Museum is not included but understand that not everyone wants to add this.

The experience overall was average. The driver was standoffish to guests on the bus and was late during pick up. The guide was lovely and provided various information about Crete’s history and mythology. Knossos Palace was very full of tourists (expected) and we received info about the palace via ear pieces which had a limited range. There was only 30 minutes or so free time for Knossos Palace. Heraklion was 3 hour free time which was OK but the city is very modern so there’s not much to see.

The coach was lovely very nice to have air conditioning in all seats. The guide was very knowledgeable but didn’t half go on and on about the same things. The guided tour was disappointing as there were too many groups trying to see the same things all at the same time. This resulted in queues in full sunshine and midday heat to see the highlighted attractions. Opting not to join the Heraklion guided tour we enjoyed a few hours exploring alone until it was time to leave and head back

The whole experience was excellent. The driver was very careful especially on the narrow Cretan roads and the guide was superb. She was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about Knossos and the Cretan way of life at the time. She managed to link her knowledge with mythology and other religions and was very well organised. She made sure that all the party were included with the information and tried to find shade when explaining different aspects of the site.

The tour to Knossos palace was excellent and the guide extremely informative. The Heraklion experience for me was 3 hours I could have done without. It was only shopping which we were not interested in. If the tours were split into two different types you could decide which experience is best for yourself. But overall I would recommend it

The guide seemed very knowledgeable and friendly, we were given an earphone for the Palace and City however these only worked in a certain range of the guide and we missed parts of the detail because we were caught behind other people and couldn't keep up! The Palace was far too busy, and it felt slightly rushed - we didn't get much time at all to explore afterwards and we felt like we missed areas. It would be better to do a tour of just the Palace so people can focus on that.

Our guide Poppy was so lovely, kind, knowledgeable,interesting and informative. I visited with my 2 daughters 11 & 9 who found the palace tour a little too long/hot (very exposed to the sun & no shade). Our coach driver reversed into a van on picking us up , smashing the entire back window which is why I’ve marked down on safety!! Think it would be better to get to the palace earlier, so you arrive in Heraklion for 12-1 ( lunchtime) it’s a long time going from 9 until 2 for lunch for children.

The collection was not from the hotel, but from a pickup spot. Over 1 km away. Which we had to walk to, and then wait at, for over 70 mins before the bus eventually turned up without even an apology for being so late. We had the TUI app, and they had our phone numbers, so contacting us to say we did not need to hang out in 35C heat for over an hour for a bus that was running late. This really cast a shadow over the rest of the day, reduced time in Knossos, etc. Very disappointing for price paid.

We got on the coach at 07.05 at our hotel and did not arrive at Knossos until 10.15! All the information said a maximum of 2&1/2 hours on the coach but this was longer - caused by customers who were late or did not turn up! There should be a 5 minute limit to how long the bus waits before leaving as it meant everyone else waiting an extra 30 minutes in the bus. The driver and guide were good, Fotini was very knowledgeable. Knossos was very busy and the ticket machine broke so more wasted time!

The overall tour was great, and loved that we got to go Heraklion afterwards, it was just busy as I was expecting but sometimes the guide would kinda speed off ahead and even with the earpieces to listen to her, she would get out of range so missed some parts of it, but overall was a nice day out

We thoroughly enjoyed this experience. Our guide Popi was very knowledgeable and shared some really interesting information on the bus and throughout the tour. The instructions were very clear so we had no concerns about where we should be or what time. I would recommend this tour to anyone who is interesting in the history of Crete.

Knossos Palace was interesting, but crowded and expectations should be set around how much there actually is to see. Entrance fee is only 15 Euros. The "tour" of Heraklion was more here is a fountain see you back here in a couple of hours. Description of trip also mentioned a market but this didn't really materialise. So trip did feel a bit expensive for what it was.

Our guide Maria was good though retold somethings. She was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. There were lots if hotel pick ups and as we were first on and therefore last back it was a 10hour trip

The tour was exceptional and interesting. Well organised and run. Pick up was smooth. Drop off was an issue - there were no announcements about which hotel was being serviced at each drop so we missed ours. The driver was unaware we were still on the bus and had to be persuaded to take us to a taxi.

Our tour guide was amazing- so knowledgeable! She was essential to getting the most out of the visit. Time to wander round Heraklion (having first been given an orientation by our tour guide) was really nice.

Our guide Veta, was excellent. She’s knew everything, was friendly and spoke in a way appropriate for adults and children. The kids (11yrs) enjoyed it as much as we did. The guide always tried to stop in shade, luckily we went on a day with a breeze but it was still very warm and Knossos was busy so there were times were you needed to wait in sun as well. Tablets provided were excellent especially for kids as it provided a view of how it used to look. Would highly recommend if you enjoy history.

The audio through the headphones kept cutting out when the guide was a little bit ahead. This meant we lost out on some of the commentary. There was not enough free time to see anything but the main points. It would have been good to be able to read some of the signs and spend more time there
