East along the coast to the tranquil village of Plaka, with the option of a short boat-ride to Spinalonga, which inspired Victoria Hislop’s powerful novel “The Island”. Free time (and maybe a delicious Cretan lunch) in Elounda: the lakeside and harbour of charming Aghios Nikolaos.

THE WHITE MOUNTAINS: Agia Lake, a haven for many native and migratory birds: through citrus-groves to the Omalos Plateau. The head of the Samaria Gorge, the longest of its kind in Europe, set against a stunning backdrop of mountains. A traditional Cretan lunch is included today.
