I tried the biking activity at Kefalonia (Argostoli) and must say I enjoyed.
If you are a novice like me at Biking, then this one is not too challenging, meaning not too many hills.
You start off from Argostoli Harbour,heading across the causeway ,then round the lagoon past the Ninja ducks,on past the harbour to the lighthouse onwards a few more miles to a nice secluded beach for a couple of hours then back again to the docks.
Nice and relaxing and nice views along the way.

Equipment: All equipment is supplied including Bike,helmets, rucksack, water, energy drink and energy bar.
Just bring your Camera,swimmies and a towel.

Hey Mister Can We Get Our Ball Back?

Yamas!

So there I was walking past the church - which one? Well I don't know!! I kinda impressed myself tho' as the kid's football landed just in front of me. Well obviously I didn't "Bend It Like Beckham" but impressed myself with a foot-to-foot pass back - hopefully they said "Cheers Mister!" - I felt like joining in and suggesting being the "goalie" but my Greek isn't quite up to that!

Little human touches - that's what chill-out trips are all about :)

Equipment: Not the time to be wearing your suede loafers!!

A: I think you might have better luck finding an answer if you go to www.tripadvisor.com and ask in the Crete/Greece forum, and also check the reviews.

A Great City

 Heraklion is the capital of Crete and gets overlooked by most tourists who do not visit it except to go to the Airport.
