From Rethymno: Samaria Gorge Full-Day Trek
Your full-day excursion to Samaria Gorge begins with pickup in Rethymno and a drive to Omalos, in the heart of the White Mountains, where you can enjoy breakfast before you begin your hike. The trek will take you over rocks and stones, through a forest of thousand-year-old trees and along a river by fresh-water springs. Along the way, you'll have spectacular views of Crete's most beautiful mountain range, and you are also likely to see mountain goats roaming in the wild
Your escort will be there to explain all the necessary information about your hike and provide you with the tickets for the entrance and ferry. After your breakfast, you will enter the Samaria Gorge, where you can walk at your own pace as your guide waits at the end of the group to help you out if you need them. At the end of the trek you'll visit the village of Agia Roumeli, where you'll find a number of taverns, bars, and shops. You can enjoy some free time to take a swim or have some lunch. Late in the afternoon, you'll board a boat that will take you from Agia Roumeli to Sfakia, where your bus will be waiting to transfer you back to the starting point.
