Explore the capital of Crete with a private tour of Heraklion! Visit the capital's most significant monuments with a guide just for you and your friends or family!
Tour Details
At the appointed time, we’ll meet in front of Hari's Creperiê to begin our private tour of Heraklion. Our first stop will be the Church of St. Titus, a site with a rich history. Originally a Byzantine church, it was later converted into an Ottoman mosque and rebuilt in the mid-19th century.
As we walk through Crete's capital, you’ll observe the influences of various civilizations, including Armenians, Greeks, and Arabs. We’ll pass by the Heraklion Loggia and the Orthodox Cathedral of St. Minas, one of Greece's largest churches.
The tour continues through the historic center, where we’ll admire the facade of St. Mark's Basilica and stop at Morosini Fountain Square. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to taste local specialties like raki and bougatsa.
Before concluding, we’ll visit Heraklion’s Central Market to browse its craft stalls. The tour lasts 2.5 hours, concluding at the starting point.
