Travel guides for real people travelling
 

Some of the remarkable things we are especially proud to offer you are our in-depth guides about the place you are considering travelling to.
For Crete (where it all started), we give you an entire website/guide to Crete.

• Who writes these guides?
  We do. That is, the 2 founding members of CreteTravel.com/ SuperbGreece.com. We live in Crete year round and visit all these places and research all their features. Let's make one thing clear: we are not interested in population figures, prefecture divisions, and irrelevant facts! And we don't believe you are interested in these either, right?
  So we assemble personally all the interesting, exciting information, only sourcing some of the historical facts. This is why our guides are different and really useful: we look at a place through the eyes of a traveller, not a bureaucracy. And, our guides are fresh and accurate; we double-check everything.
  We write truthfully, without an agenda. We write what we like and say what could do with improvement or those things we would leave well alone.

• What use are these guides to me?
  We know it for a fact: many of our site's visitors print and take these guides with them and use them on their trip. Of course, these guides will also help you tremendously, before you travel, while you are planning your trip.

• What can I find out from these guides?
  Firstly, what each place "feels like". The atmosphere, style, ambience. Then: how you can get there (by air, sea or land), what you can see, what you can do, where there's a good place to eat and which other places nearby you could visit. A little bit of history, only if it's interesting!

• Do you show any photographs or maps?
  Numerous photographs which we have taken. Clear but "light", so all the website pages you view appear on your screen blinking-fast.
  Maps: we believe in respecting copyright and intellectual property. So we produce our own maps, which means you see better, clearer, fast-loading maps (not those grainy bitmaps of dubious origin that take aaaaaages to appear).

• Are the guides printer-friendly?
  Yes, each and every one of them. If some guides span more than 1 page, we provide a "print the whole guide" option. We've been told it's helpful!
