Overview

Lets go to hiking with me on this private day tour & discover the Zeus mountain highest of Crete on a day tour.
I was born and raised in the old city of Chania, in Crete. While I live here, it will be my pleasure to show you the mountains of my home area!
I am a professional mountaineer, mountain guide and instructor. I have many years of experience working as a mountain guide in Greece, France, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Nepal, Tibet, Pakistan and on the western side of the USA.
I created this tour for you to be able to visit the Psiloritis Mountain with highest peak on the island and with the best view of Crete. Mountain with a lot of pass history mountain of Zeus As he grew up there! The Mountain of Daedalus and Icarus flight way from Crete! The mountain of Nikos Kazantzakis, a great writer who invented the sirtaki together with Alexis Zorbas. And for sure area with nice local food and hospitality!
I will be happy to show you the secret path I use when I want to calm down from the noise of the city!
