1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?
Gorge-walking on the south side of Crete2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
Pack fewer clothes! It is possible to do laundry and dry clothes out. Cash is useful for accelerating payment for meals by the group, which you might not need if you were paying for yourself - it just helps to divide up the costs.3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
We ate in a wide range of local restaurants, and developed a taste for Cretan cuisine over more cosmopolitan menu choices found in more restaurants in Chania. Not sure that we were significantly more impactful than other vacation makers we met ...4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
We had a very good vacation, with a very good group of fellow walkers from the UK, Australia and New Zealand.Catherine Chamberlin review 30 Aug 2024
