Reach the heights of the gods
To visit Crete is to discover peaceful Greece, the birthplace of Zeus, between peaks and tides. Discover Heraklion and its fortifications, Chania and its superb port, and the rocky peaks that climb to the sky in the center of the island, notably Mount Ida, which watches over Crete from its 2,456 m altitude.
So it's no surprise that climbers will be delighted by this trip, with its 800 m daily vertical drop that will make your naps in the shade of the olive trees even sweeter! Experience the Mediterranean at its best, in a relaxing setting where Cretan roads with little traffic will give free rein to your most beautiful cycling dazzles!
