Ever been there? If the answer is 'no' then you are missing a wonderful experience. I have been there three times and each time discovered something new about the island. The Cretans (don't like the word but I guess its appropriate!) as such friendly people. I detected that they warm particularly to visitors from UK - we appear to treat the shopkeepers and hotel worker with respect which is not necessarily the case when it comes to other visitors from EU.
The island has a diversity of scenery - for example you can walk along a beach, but still have the mountains to one side and the sea to the other. The scenery is unbelievable - reminiscent of the absolute wild highlands of Scotland. The come across a mountain, traverse it (by car or bus) and around the corner is another one!
We have yet to find a town/place which is not appealing. Everywhere we have gone we have had a warm welcome. It is a value-for-money island and you will love the whole experience. We return later this month.
