Palace of Knossos Guided Tour

After meeting your guide at the selected time at the Palace of Knossos, you'll begin exploring this ancient residence of King Minos. The palace complex consists of over 1500 interconnected rooms, akin to the Minotaur's Labyrinth.

Learn about the legend of the mythological being that terrorised the Cretans thousands of years ago. Who confined him in the labyrinth? What did he consume? Who was responsible for his demise and how did it occur?

As you immerse yourself in the island's mythical history, you'll tour the chambers of the royal family, sanctuaries, and the rooms housing the treasures of Crete. The Palace of Knossos is the most significant remnant of the Minoan civilisation, regarded as the most sophisticated ancient culture in Europe.

A notable aspect of the civilisation's advanced nature is the palace's intricate sewage and water system. You will also see the original throne of King Minos, which has endured for 3,500 years. Your tour will conclude after you have fully appreciated the Palace of Knossos and its remarkable frescoes.
