Top Local Tips for Crete

Excursions We travelled with Thomsons and their trips were very pricy.Platanias has a motorised train service to some of the mountains and gorges and also the waterpark which is great fun at half the price offered by the tour companies.Also the bus service to Chania is very cheap air conditioned and frequent.

try a local restaurent although you may be in a hotel try a local taverna because there are some excellent night time views from some of the taverna's

Shop Early If you need to shop , go earlier rather than later. It gets very busy later in the evening.
