What to expect

  1. Imbros Gorge
    3h · Admission ticket included
    Hike through Imbros Gorge, one of Crete’s most impressive natural landscapes. This self-guided walk takes you along an approximately 8-kilometer trail through a narrow canyon with dramatic rock formations, wild scenery, and a peaceful atmosphere far from the crowds.

    Your driver-guide will drop you off at the entrance of the gorge and meet you at the exit near Komitades, so you can enjoy the full route without having to walk back the same way. The path is clearly marked and easy to follow, while your driver-guide remains available by phone if needed.
  2. 2h
    After the hike, relax in Sfakia, a small coastal village known for its authentic Cretan character and beautiful setting by the Libyan Sea. Here you can enjoy free time to swim in the clear southern waters, take in the peaceful atmosphere, or sit down for a traditional meal at a local taverna.

    It’s the perfect place to slow down after the gorge, taste fresh local flavors, and experience the quieter side of southern Crete.
