Athens- problems w Gatsby hotel but kimkim issues a partial refund which was great. Mythology tour of acropolis with Michael was stellar. Hotel in chania was so unique, great hospitality and delicious breakfast. Cretan cooking class was way too long and food not so tasty. Samaria gorge and guide was fantastic. Should have told us to bring flip flops for beach at the end because sand was very hot. Knossos and guide fantastic. Added wine tasting since not much else to do in Archanes. Loved hotel and the restaurant below in Naxos. Loved e-bike tour. Overall loved this trip.

6 hours and not much cooking. Wine tasting was a few sips of wine and no details. Hosts were charming but food was bland. We had to sit through 45 min history lesson. I was a bit perplexed.
