A perfect day!
We had a wonderful day with Kostas. We visited a factory for olive oil and then traveled to a Monastery for a wine and olive tasting. Our tasting guide, Katerina was fantastic. The Monastery grounds were beautiful. Kostas was friendly, informative and a great driver. We highly recommend this.

We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed our services with Mr. Kostas We are glad that we met your expectations. We strive to provide excellent service to all our guests and we are glad to be able to do so for you.

Perfect Tour Despite the Time Crunch
Antonis (a.k.a. Adonis) really organized the the tour perfectly given that we only had about 5 hours to sightsee before our cruise ship disembarked. We never felt rushed and got back to the ship with plenty of time. The private wine tasting at Agia Triada Monastery was an amazing experience and the owner had very generous pours, even letting us sample some raki. My twin babies were cranky so the owner kindly offered some cookies, which they loved, made by the monks just like the wine. I had really wanted to see the oldest Olive tree in the world which was on this island, but Adonis recommended walking around the Old Port instead since it would take 2 hours round trip alone to see the tree. I'm glad we took he advice because we enjoyed walking the cute streets with their shops, enjoying some, coffee, pastries, and fresh local Greek figs and oranges from a grocery store before heading back to the ship. With more time, I'd gladly tour Chania and other parts of Crete with Adonis again.
Response from the operator: It was a pleasure to meet you and I am very happy that you were satisfied with the excursion we organized for you. I hope to meet you again soon and to do together more tours and more attractions in Crete. Until then stay healthy

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Arriving by cruise ship at Chania - Port of Souda: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Chania.
How much does Arriving by cruise ship at Chania - Port of Souda cost?
+
Prices start at $650 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Chania usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Arriving by cruise ship at Chania - Port of Souda take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Chania is not rushed.
Is Arriving by cruise ship at Chania - Port of Souda worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Chania, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Arriving by cruise ship at Chania - Port of Souda?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Arriving by cruise ship at Chania - Port of Souda suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Arriving by cruise ship at Chania - Port of Souda?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Chania can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Chania and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Arriving by cruise ship at Chania - Port of Souda start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Chania within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Chania?
+
On Outty we rank every Chania experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Half-Day Rethymno Quad Safari, Elafonisi & Falasarna Small Group Tour from Chania w/snacks, Balos & Falassarna Beach - Jeep Tour with Loungers and Lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Chania?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Chania?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
