We don't expect everyone to choose
to take the route we took to Iremia. Not many people have the time
to meander through France, Switzerland and Italy. We set a
relatively fast pace taking 5 days to travel the 1191 miles from
Orpington to Kamilari in the south of Crete. You might choose to take a shorter route! |
|
| We took Eurotunnel to France and then drove to Ancona in Italy. From Ancona we took the ferry to Patras. Then by road to Piraeus for the overnight ferry to Heraklion. Finally by road again to Kamilari |
 |
|
|
In the summer months it is possible to fly direct.
|
| You can fly to Athens and then get a connection to Crete on a domestic flight or take the overnight ferry from Piraeus. |
 |
|
|
We are between 45 minutes and 1.5 hour (€90) taxi ride from Heraklion airport depending on the condition of the roads. Car hire/rental is available from the airport. We have a local car hire company who will also deliver to and collect from the airport www.kalamaki.de |
