A place full of rich cultural treasures.

Do not forget that you are in the place where the greatest revolutions against the conquerors over the ages were organized and implemented. Arkadi is the most important heritage of the island, the struggles of the Monastery against the conquerors have been an inspiration. The sacrifice of the people who lived and died there has generated strong emotional impact and has become an example.A few kilometers east stands the museum of Ancient Eleftherna, which includes exhibits that highlight life in the wider area over time, from the end of the 4th millennium BC to the Byzantine period. It is a powerful reminder of the presence of the Homeric world in Crete.

The journey through time continues with our visit to the city of Rethymno. In every corner of the city, indelible signs of the conquerors now constitute a rich cultural heritage. In the narrow streets of the old city, beyond the hidden gastronomic and cultural treasures, you will find locals to embrace you, treat you and tell you the stories of the city.
