A full-day experience for travellers who want something different, beautiful and carefully organised.

When you are staying in Agios Nikolaos, the hardest question is often not “where can I go?”, but “which day is right for me?”

Santorini, Elafonisi, Matala and Vai are all beautiful, but they are very different experiences.

Santorini is a dream day across the sea.
Elafonisi is a long journey to soft colours and shallow water.
Matala has the feeling of the south coast, with cliffs, caves and a different rhythm.
Vai brings you to the palm beach side of East Crete.

This is why we like to talk with our guests before they choose. A good excursion is not only about the destination. It is about the kind of day you want to have.

Excursions for every kind of day.

When the weather in Crete gets very hot, many visitors prefer a day closer to the sea.

At Astra Tours, we can help you choose between boat trips, beach excursions, catamaran experiences and swimming-friendly days from the Agios Nikolaos area.

Visit our office and we’ll help you find the right option for this weather.

Crete looks small on the map, but once you start travelling around it, every side of the island feels different.

The sea, the light, the roads and the atmosphere change from coast to coast. Some days are made for quiet bays, some for the south coast, some for lagoons, and some for the slower roads of East Crete.

At Astra Tours, we don’t just suggest the most famous excursion. We help you choose the day that fits your holiday.
