The Crete region

We all know of Crete's exquisite 1,000 kilometre-long coastline dotted with numerous coves, bays and peninsulas which afford a multitude of soft, sandy beaches along the beautifully blue Mediterranean Sea. After all, it's among the finest in the world and has established Crete as one of Europe's most popular holiday destinations. And, of course, the island's historic importance in today's world as the home of the Minoan civilization with important archeological finds at Knossos, Phaistos and Gortys, is evidenced by the tens of thousands of visitors to these sites each year.
However, Crete is the largest island in Greece - the fifth largest in the Mediterranean - and, within its diverse area of more than 8,000 square kilometres, there are many other jewels just waiting to be discovered by the more adventurous explorers of holiday treasures.
If you haven’t visited Crete yet, this summer may be the time to come and discover this fascinating Greek island. If it captures your heart, don’t worry. Come back next year and Crete will welcome you once more with its smiling Cretan sun, the sounds of the Cretan lyre, the scents of orange blossom and jasmine, a slice of cool red watermelon and a glass of iced raki.

Rethymno / Prines area

Starting our tour from Rethymno we continue in a westerly direction on the old national road towards Chania. 6 km later we arrive at the picturesque village of Atsipopoulo with its beautiful Venetian buildings.
Passing through the villages of Prines and Gonia we come to the village of Aghios Andreas. There we turn left and after 3 km the village of Ano Valsamonero lies ahead of you. Outside the village you can visit the fortress of Monopari, which was built by Pescatore on the precipitous hill of Kastellos.
We return to Aghios Andreas and continue south. After 2 km we follow the road sign to the village of Roustika, which is situated 21 km from Rethymno. We suggest you visit the Monastery of Profitis Elias as well as the beautiful two-aisled church, which is ornamented with frescoes and dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin and the Metamorphosis of Christ.
We leave Roustika and continue in the direction of Aghios Konstantinos. This village has magnificent Venetian buildings and used to be the resort of the Venetian nobility. Passing through a number of smaller villages we arrive at Argyroupoli with its many springs of crystal clear water and the remains of the ancient city of Lappas. The village of Myriokefala is situated 7 km south of Argyroupoli, where we suggest you visit the Monastery of the Virgin, which dates back to the 10th century.
We then return to Argyroupoli and continue north until we arrive 5 km later at the village of Episkopi, the capital of the newly established Municipality of Lappeon. We go on in a northerly direction until we arrive at the New National Road Rethymno - Chania, where we may turn in either direction.
