The trip was well-organized with pickup from Chania. Beautiful views, clear turquoise waters, and little bit pink sand beach. The guide was informative, and the journey was comfortable throughout.

We had a nice time, the day trip from Chania was a relaxing escape to the famous pink-sand beach, we swam in the crystal-clear waters, and the bus ride was comfortable and we enjoyed the views of the landscapes.
