3Fodele
Fodele is a picturesque hamlet, built in a lush green valley full of orange trees and centuries- old plane trees.
It is a village of historic significance, since it is believed to have been the birthplace of the painter Domenikos Theotokopoulos, widely known as El Greco. In the settlement of Archontika you can visit the El Greco museum and admire copies of the great painter's works.

4Chania
Chania is probably the most ravishing and quaint city of Crete. It was an important Minoan city and is considered to have been the “mother of all the other Cretan cities” by ancient writers.
The city is divided in two sections: the Old City, where the gorgeous harbor is situated and the New City, which is located beyond its Venetian fortifications.
The Old City of Chania is considered to be one of the most beautiful cities in the Mediterranean and it is called “Venice of the East”. Throughout the whole city we can witness samples of all the civilizations that have passed from here: archaeological Minoan sites, Turkish minarets and mosques, Muslim neighborhoods, Venetian fortresses and dockyards, fountains and squares, arches and mansions, the famous Loggia and of course the landmark of the city, the renowned Lighthouse.
Just outside Chania, we will visit the Venizelos’ family tombs. Both tombs, next to each other, are in a beautiful park with lush vegetation, paved paths, stone benches under the shade of ancient trees, but what gives the place its incredible beauty is the panoramic view to the deep blue of the sea and the whole city of Chania.

5Bali
Yes, it’s true! There is Bali on Crete, too! Bali is a seaside resort, ideal for family and romantic holidays.
Its name originates from the Turkish word balli which means “honey” and this quaint village will surely “sweeten” you up with its extraordinary natural beauty and its magnificent beaches.

6Argyroupoli
Argyroupoli, a traditional village built at an altitude of 254 meters and the site of the ancient city of Lappa. Roman remains, Venetian buildings and Byzantine churches dominate the region.
However, the most attractive feature of Argyroupoli is most certainly the famous Springs of Argyroupoli, a place of unparalleled beauty with running waters and a lush green landscape, where Mouselas River has its source. In Argyroupoli, nature is the absolute, undeniable star.
