Hiring a car is definitely recommended as this will give you freedom and the opportunity to explore the island and its many hidden wonders. Hiring a car is not much more than taxis from the airport to the resort and back again. We got a good deal at the airport with Eurodollar.
On receipt of your booking confirmation we will send you detailed directions from Heraklion airport to Makrigialos. The drive is stunningly beautiful, taking in coastal and country roads, and extremely easy.
