Description
This is a very easy tour suitable for all age groups. We bike on smooth straight roads with easy downhill passages. The service van follows the group, and there is a coffee or snack stop halfway.
The beginning point of this effortless but bestseller trip is a colourful church surrounded by huge plane trees in the lovely, green valley of Meskla village. Our journey leads us at a leisurely speed into a Cretan version of the Garden of Eden. Grapes, mulberries, oranges, lemons, figs, kiwis, lotos-fruit and avocados ask to be sampled. The ride through flower-scented villages and a stop in a small traditional coffee shop make this trip a truly extraordinary experience.

It is possible to leave a tour early however you will be responsible for your own arrangements from the moment you decide to leave the tour.

If you feel this may be necessary please consult a Fabulous Crete Specialist before you book your adventure.
