The past meets the present on this unique, full-day tour of legendary Knossos. Begin with a two-hour scenic motorcoach ride to this city of antiquity, once the social, political and spiritual center of Minoan culture and the seat of the legendary King Minos. Your walking tour takes you through the palace's many maze-like hallways, through secret rooms and passageways, and gives great insight into the ancient world. As you walk, you will utilize a tablet loaded with augmented reality software, which combines the camera's content with a virtual one. The technology enables visitors to focus the tablet on a location and not only see the site as it stands today but also view how it looked thousands of years ago. On your return, stop in Heraklion town for free time to explore Venizelou Square surrounded by boutiques and souvenir shops. Continue on to port at the end of this fascinating day.
