The largest and southernmost island of Greece, Crete is a metropolis that retains its roots in classical history. Once the heart of Minoan civilization, Crete boasts Knossos, site of the famous Minoan palace, as well as countless tombs and chapels preserved amidst the modern cityscape. A wealth of other historical and cultural sites from Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman eras also beg exploration, while the traditional Greek cafés (kafeneia) highlight the growth of eccentric contemporary culture unique to the island.

Lefka Ori (the White Mountains), Mount Idi and Mount Dikti, stretching to heights of 2500 metres, are part of a magnificent mountain chain that extends from one end of the island to the other, riddled with hundreds of gorges and caves amongst fertile plateaus of olive trees. Travel to Crete's interior to experience the local culture, untainted by tourism, or to the southern coast for paradisiacal isolated beaches. One-day sailing trips to the small islands of Gavdos and Hrissi, just off the coast, provide a relaxing escape from the lively city.
