From Chania: Matala Hippie Vibes & Lake Escape Private Tour

Let’s head southeast to discover the charm, history, and natural beauty of southern Crete. Our first stop is the picturesque village of Spili, where you’ll enjoy a 30-minute break to admire its famous Venetian stone fountain with 25 lion-head spouts, as well as charming chapels and churches adorned with traditional murals.We then continue to Matala, a coastal village with a unique bohemian past. In the 1960s, Matala became a haven for free-spirited travelers who turned ancient caves into homes, creating a vibrant hippie community. Today, the village still carries that laid-back energy, with its stunning turquoise beach, azure bay, and a feeling of freedom you’ll never forget. On the way back, we stop at the beautiful Lake Kournas, Crete’s only freshwater lake, surrounded by tavernas and shops. Take in the panoramic views of the White Mountains mirrored in the lake’s calm waters — the perfect ending to a memorable day.Options:Private Tour 1-6 people Private Tour 7-12 people
