🇬🇷 A house vs. appartment, what would you choose? * I know this question might sound ridiculous, but in many cases, especially in Greece, there is no large price difference between renting a house or an apartment. * This time on Crete we had one of each and have definitely lived pros and cons of the both. * Would you be interested about our opinion on what to rent with kids? What is your choice? #cretegreece #greece_travel #greecetravel
🇬🇷 It‘s so easy to take photos in Greece - all those whites and blues and flowers make for the best settings♥️ #visitgreece #greece_travel #greecetravel
🇬🇷 Our 5 favorite taverns in the South-Eastern Crete.. * You can‘t leave Crete without trying it‘s local food - and taverns, especially the ones located in smaller villages off the beaten path are an experience you shouldn‘t miss♥️ * Usually when looking for a place we‘d ask locals for recommendations or simply follow our nose and eyes. * Here are 5 places where we had great food and service and where noone even though a thing when Olivia and Max devoured tzatziki with hands and built stone castles under the table. * 🍴 Στραβοδοξάρι / Stravodoksari - google will show you two addresses, aim for the one at the seaside. This place (on the photo) has a brilliant setting right on the beach and serves all varieties of local Cretan food - Lamb Antichristo was delicious! 🍴Mina‘s Place (in Makry Gialos) is set directly in harbor, a bit off the main promenade, but it‘s quite authentic and where locals themselves go for fresh sea food. 🍴 Αλλιωτικο-Alliotiko (in Makry Gialos) is a family restaurant with great food! Always go for the daily specials (moussaka was delicious) and on the weekends for the meat grills. 🍴 Seragio Tavern (in Etia) - it felt like the whole village lives around this tavern. Beautiful serring with delicious food 🍴Taverna Glaros (in Kato Zakros) is a lovely tavern on the beach run by the friendly Scottish-Greek family.
🇬🇷 Only after taking this photo I have spotted fishermen aboard. Can you see them? #greece🇬🇷 #lovegreece #crete🇬🇷
🇬🇷How is the Covid-19 situation on Crete? * You probably have heard from the news that Greece has been doing quite well on the Covid-19 statistics. * In Crete, a total of 17 people had only mild symptoms, for several weeks until the end of June 2020 no new COVID-19 cases were registered on the island. * Today all the shops and restaurants are back in bisiness. Most of the hotels and rentals offer their services with taking care of the hygiene and distance instructions. * From our personal experience, locals though, take things easy - with almost noone is wearing masks in restaurants or in small shops and spreading handshakes and hugs. * Starting last week it became mandatory to wear masks in supermarkets for personell and for visitors - otherwise you can‘t enter. * To sum it up - the main danger for the islanders are the arriving tourists, not the locals. * We show our current travels in Crete over Stories - feel free to join😌 #travelgreece #travelcrete #cretegreece
🇬🇷 Where to stay on Crete (with and without kids)? * Crete is the largest island in Greece and you simply can’t explore at on one visit. There is so much to it and we recommend bringing time and patience if you wish to learn about the island, it’s history and of course enjoying it’s brilliant beaches! * Here are some hints for you if you are planning your trip to the land of Minotaur: 🗺 Eastern Crete (North) – with are between Heraklion and Agios Nikolaos being one of the most popular destinations for package tourists. 🗺 Eastern Crete (South) is the least developed part of the island. It has a laid-back atmosphere. This is where we have been staying this time 🗺Central Crete – with Heraklion serving as the main hub and also the administrative centre of the island. Some of the Crete most popular sightseeing spots, like the palace of Knossos are located in this area. 🗺Western Crete – is where you will find mountains and olive groves, as well as incredible beaches. It is the most green part of the island. Chania is the regions capital (there is a detailed guide on our blog about Western Crete) * Which Greek island have you been to? Which one would you like to visit? #visitcrete #cretegreece #greeceislands
🇬🇷Once upon a time, when we‘ve been traveling the Seychelles, one local told us to never lay in shade of a palm tree.. * ..because of the coconut which fall down. * But on Crete, you can enjoy laying under the palms without endangering your head - these are all date palms. * Anyhow, on the North-Eastern part of Crete you will find Vai beach, which houses about 5000 date palms and is considered to be the largest wild palm grove in Europe. * It is a popular one, especially during the high season months,but these days we found it relaxed, so everyone had space. #vaibeach #cretegreece #cretelife #visitgreece
🇬🇷 Beach Regulations in Greece during the Corona virus times: ⛱Only two people can be seated under a single umbrella with the exception of families with young children. ⛱Beach beds should be placed at least 1.5 meters apart from neighbouring umbrella; ⛱umbrellas should be placed 4 meters apart. ⛱Team sports involving close contact are forbidden. ⛱Beach bars and cafes or mobile units offering food and drink can serve items in a package or as tale away. ⛱Dispersed chairs and tables are allowed in café or bar space with customers seated at least 1.5 meters apart. ⛱Social distancing and hygiene rules apply to everyone. ⛱Beach bars and cafés are not allowed to play music or hold parties and similar events. ⛱Beach capacity has been set at 40 people per 1,000m2. * From our personal experience herr on Crete, at least half of the rules are not taken seriously - especially the ones with only two people under one umbrella! * So far Crete has been very little affected by the Corona Virus, but with tourists coming in it could change fast. * Many of is tend to forget about the common sense while being on vacation. But let‘s not forget that we are all in it together! #covidrelief #visitgreece #cretegreece
I want to freeze this moment and unpack it during the times of concerns and worries as a reminder that there are little things which keep us happy❤️ #cretegreece #greece_travel #familytravels
