★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Went here to embark upon the caves where Zeus was apparently born by mother Rhea. You either take a mule or walk the way up which does not take more than about 15-20 minutes or so. The cave is brisk with fresh air and the stalagmites are very real. It really is magnificent to think of how locations like these are found. Also had some fresh orange juice on top - enjoyed my trip!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It is what you might expect, a fertile plateau, possibly in a volcanic crater. Very pretty, excellent produce. One word of warning, the local tavernas are geared to deal with large numbers of tourists and can be quick to add extra items to your order, before you understand what is being offered.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice and really cold (appx 13°C) place to be and simply get an escape. Enjoying. Fantastic impressions.
TIP for parents: get your beauties up the hill by themselves and they will be quite at all ;)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The site was lovely. It was €2.50 to park. The path up to the cave was far to steep for me and I wasn't prepared to spend €10 each way on a donkey carrying me up. Also you may find this silly but I'm quite a big man in weight and would have felt awful for the donkey having to carry me. What wasn't advertised anywhere is that it's €6 to get in, OK not a great amount but I found that a little naughty, oh well we've walked all the way up here we may as well pay and go in, is just what they want you to think.
Again it's not a lot but parking, donkey, entrance, food, drink and fuel to get there could be a sizable chunk out of your budget if you like us were on a small budget holiday.
The cafe with the veranda had a wonderful view and I sat and had a tall pomegranate freshly made juice drink which was top class. The lovely lady persuaded me to have their home made ice cream that she served with chopped fresh strawberry ? s, wow, I love my ice cream and was very impressed with the quality of it. I had the small tub and this was quite enough. The tall pomegranate drink plus the ice cream and strawberrys came to €6.50 which for the quality of both I found to be excellent value. The staff were lovely.
Well worth your patronage.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Quick trip from Irakleio. Beautiful. The hike is very short, fifteen to twenty minutes to the cave.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ You have to walk 1km (ascencion) from the parking where you have to pay 2,5eur/car. You can have a donkey taxi per 10eur, one way, or 15eur, both ways. Then you have to pay 6eur/person to enter into the cave. Just beautiful but too small for the price, I would say too expensive in comparison to all the others I visited in other countries. You just need around 10min inside the cave. Very disappointing.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Zeus's place of birth... theres 2 routes up ones a steeper path and the other is a proper path...
Wear proper footwear and you should be fine on either route... its 6euros per person to enter... it's a cool cave must do trip while your in crete if you are interested in greek mythology
