About us
Your Journey, Your Story
At Crete Wanderer, we believe that travel is more than just seeing new places — it’s about meaningful experiences that connect you with the heart of a destination. As passionate locals, we invite you to explore Crete in a way that goes beyond the guidebooks and tourist hotspots.
Our mission? Simple. To help you uncover the authentic soul of this remarkable island, one unforgettable moment at a time.
Our Story
Crete Wanderer was born out of a love for Crete — its rugged mountains, crystal-clear seas,
ancient myths, and timeless traditions. What started as a desire to share our home with
friends soon grew into a passion for creating tailor-made experiences for travelers seeking
something more personal, meaningful, and memorable.
We don’t believe in cookie-cutter tours. Instead, we listen to your interests, dreams, and
pace, crafting custom journeys that bring you closer to the real Crete: its flavors, stories, and
untamed beauty.
