Discover Heraklion on this Free Walking Tour

Overview of the tour in Heraklion

The first part of this walking tour will be focused on the monuments of Heraklion.

This is a city that underwent a wide variety of historical periods, from the Minoans and Greek civilizations of thousands of years ago to the Byzantine and Arab periods, up to the Venetian rule and the latest Ottoman occupation, against which Crete struggled to free itself at the beginning of the 21st century. The monuments we will see each tell us a chapter of this intricate history; we will see each one of them and explain the history it witnessed.

In the second part of this tour we will leave the turist-filled zone and adventure ourselves into the truly local neighbourhoods to experience first-hand the Cretan culture.

Once there, look for the blonde guy with long hair and a bandana :)
