Overall you got what was offered from the excursion but BEWARE of a few details left out in the details. One being if you are one of the first stops being picked up as early as 7:45, you can be on the bus or shuffle buses for 2 dehours before your first stop at the monastery. The second detail left out was the cave of Zeus requires the proper footwear and stamina to climb the steep, rocky incline before you even get to the admission gate. Third, the restaurant where you are " guided" to eat lunch, it is a cafeteria disguised as a taverna. The food was good but pricey for such a small town, and the waiter pushy on what to eat and brought bread to the table for which they charged without knowing. Also, some foods not available even though on the menu. Also, the credit card machine just happened not to work. Guide did not give ANY information on the theater as an option to visit while waiting at the plateau. Guide knowledgeable and the knossos experience was good.

In summary, the tour is very interesting and we had a very good guide but the organization and quality of the tiur bus was disappointing. The details - the first 95 minutes of the day were devoted to picking guests up at various hotels and moving them around to get the right people on the right language tour! There has to be a better way! Our first bus broke down (these things happen) but the replacement bus was old and had very weak air conditioning so it was hot and stuffy with everyone complaining. It was a nice day but better organization and a bus with functioning air conditioning would certainly have made it better.

Excellent tour! The guide impressively spoke many languages seamlessly, was very knowledgeable, and was also an incredibly talented singer (he sang opera and his favorite Cretan songs). This tour allows you to see many interesting places on the island but doesn’t feel rushed. Highly recommended!

Our tour guide Panos was very knowledgeable and we had a fantastic time. Within 8hours we not only saw the mountains and the cave but also ate the local delicious cuisine

Although entry tickets for museums was not included in the price, it was very well organised and the tour guide and driver were very nice and helpful. Good option for those who want to be transported around Crete’s places of interest that are hard to reach without a car.

We did two tours with MLB Knossos Palace and a trip to Spinalonga Island. Both trips were well organised. Since we have a 9month old we required a baby car seat for the tour bus and got it without any problems. The tour guides on both trips were absolutely great! Spoke minimum 4 languages and explained sights, view points and historic events in a entertaining but informative way. The tours itself were well planned and stopped at some interesting places. The busses were punctual at pick up and also drop off. All in all great organised and fun trips. With good conscience I recommend MLB.

Firstly expect to spend more than half your time on the bus. Took around 2 hours to pick up all the passengers and another 30 minutes to get to the first stop. No WiFi on the bus either. The tour stops were nothing special, the cave has become almost man made with steps everywhere and I wouldn’t call it an underwater lake. More like a puddle. The tour guide was lovely but all in all the tour was not good. Also I understood that the money paid for this trip did not include entry to the Knossos palace and so on but we were even asked to pay 2 euros for earphones so we could hear the tour guide speak. Basically paid £110 for the two of us to sit on a bus for hours on end.

Fina utflyktsmål. Knossos är Europas första kultur. Många restauranger på slätten. Krukmakerier där man kan se tillverkning. Olivolja från fabrik.

La guide était très agréable. La vue était magnifique et l’activité très intéressante. Je recommande pour toute une famille ☺️

Vanuit Stalis tour geboekt dagje Lassithi/Knossos. Uitvoerder Orange. Hadden we gevraagd aan excursiebureau want goede recenssies gelezen. De dag begon met 1/2 uur vertraging.. wat vervelend want je staat daar maar wat te wachten aan de bushalte en geen info.. Eens opgehaald merkten we dat de bus toch niet zo fantastisch was als beschreven in eerdere reviews, was verouderd en airco stond niet hard. De gids, een dame maakte een wat uitgebluste indruk en gaf weinig info.. eerst naar Klooster waar onze eerste stop was, mooi religieus plaatsje maar veel heb ik er niet van onthouden.. en de gids in 3 talen niet goed verstaanbaar en niet helder in haar uitleg, Anderen vroegen ook meermaals bijkomende info, dus ik was niet alleen. Daarna bezoek aan Keramiek shop, voor ons geen meerwaarde. Dan lunch in goed restaurant op het Lassithi platteau. Fijn restaurant, voor €30 had je met twee gedronkel en gegeten: salade + kotelet+ aardappels, lekker! Daarna naar Knossos site, waar het goed was dat we toebedeeld waren aan een gids van Knossos zelf die een boeiend verhaal bracht! Dit maakte onze dag! Onze gids/ begeleider ging zelf niet meer mee op de bus en bleef in Knossos, vanwaar wij met de bus en chauffeur opnieuw naar de hotels vertrokken. We hadden een mooie dag maar hadden meer verwacht van Orange en de gids/ reisleider. In vgl met een eerder geboekte dag bij Altino travel waar we mee naar Spinalonga gingen zouden we nu eerder voor Altino als uitvoerder kiezen.
