From Chania: Full-Day Samaria Gorge Trek Excursion & Guide - The early bus ride from Chania

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 3,191 reviews · 9 - 12 hours · from $41Our pick

Review of Crete’s Samaria Gorge trek from Chania, with route details, costs, difficulty, guide tips, ferry ride, and practical advice.

“The tour guide and transportation were great! The gorge itself has too many people. Often, the foot path is only wide enough for one person. With so many people on the paths, some fast, some slow, it kind of sucks. Also, the bathrooms suck. For the amount of money the gorge park takes in, improve the lousy bathrooms.”

“My husband and I had an amazing time! The national park was beautiful, learning about and supporting the local people and wildlife was incredible, as was the coffee and food. Truly a trip to remember. Just some heads up: We LOVE being outdoors and long walks, but if that’s not your thing this likely isn’t for you. Also, if you get carsick or motion sick, the can ride may be a lil rough for you.”
