  • You'll take in the sunset from Valsamiotis Dam, one of the island's most scenic vantage points
  • The trip includes photo stops at Orange Tree Valley, White Mountains and more
  • A light dinner in a rustic cafe in the countryside village of Deres is included as standard

  • Your guide is an expert local who knows the areas you'll visit and their communities well
What to expect

There are plenty of ways to enjoy a Cretan sunset, but nothing quite beats a 4x4 safari into the White Mountains as day turns to night. You'll rumble down unchartered tracks to places few visitors go – stopping for plenty of photos along the way – and toast in the evening during dinner at a countryside restaurant.

With only six to eight guests per 4x4, this semi-private tour allows you to drink in hard-to-reach mountain views while enjoying the peace and quiet. You'll set off from Chania towards the White Mountains, taking routes and tracks that only a 4x4 can handle to find panoramic spots that are well off the radar.

You'll trundle through typical villages, too, and stop at Valsamiotis Dam to savour the sunset. Afterwards, you'll head to the village of Deres for a light dinner at one of the local restaurants. Then, you'll hop back into your 4x4 for the return journey to your accommodation.

Balos Lagoon viewpoint and Falasarna Beach scenic van tour

The wild side of north-west Crete takes centre stage on this small-group van adventure. It's a day that blends scenery, soft off-road exploring and laidback coastal moments. As local guide Manolis likes to say, “This day shows you Crete in one sweep, the quiet villages, the wild tracks, the peninsula, the lagoon and the beach that ties it all together.” You'll cruise through the countryside around Kissamos, passing olive groves, villages and coastal views as your guide shares stories and insights about local life, history and the natural beauty of Western Crete, giving you a richer sense of how the landscape shapes everyday rhythms.Then, you'll head off the beaten track across the rugged Gramvousa Peninsula on an 11-kilometre off-road route. After a short walk, you'll reach a natural balcony overlooking Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa Island, where you'll have time to soak up the views and snap photos of this iconic spot.After that, you'll continue along the coast to Falasarna Beach, where golden sand and clear water set the scene for around 2.5 hours of free time. Here, you can swim, unwind or grab lunch and drinks at a nearby taverna. As the day wraps up, you'll sit back for a scenic drive back along the north-western coastline. It's the perfect mix of adventure, landscapes and easygoing moments that capture the spirit of Crete.
