The only bad thing about Crete is that you need to visit it again and again for the full experience. But on the bright side, even a couple of days won't disappoint you as you can see top notch sceneries and of course amazing food.
Theseus slayed the Minotaur! And I have to say that this video has put Greece at the top of our next travel list! We are waiting for our passport renewals to come back, and then, let the adventures commence!
Hania and the whole Crete is one of my favourite destinations. Have been there many times and will go back for sure. Still good tips in this video and places I havent seen, thank you!
Great video and I'm here now following some of your recommendations. Yesterday we did a round trip from our base in Bali to Knossos Palace, Sisi Harbour, Spinalonga and a little further to Agios Nikolaos. We found your Fredo Cappuccino cafe, the same lady was there and she was nicely surprised to see herself in your video when I showed her! They do great ice cream too with real fruit bits and yes the Fredo is nice.
@HereBeBarr also since been to the monastery, Chania at sunset just about (beautiful), Elafonisi beach and the little outdoor restaurant at Dracona (Dounias/Ntounias Taverne). Again showed the manager the video. Food was great and he was very friendly, piled us up with more food after we were done with mains, left there stuffed! Great recommendations in this video.
We’re going to try to get there in the next few weeks. This is one of the best videos I have ever seen an American make. We plan to see The old Olympic Stadium and Temple of Haephestus in Monastiraki area. We always forget about it. We also plan Acrocorinth. We did enjoy Kerameikos the last time in 2019. Mystras is very interesting and we ended up meeting a Nun there pulling a mule, usually they offer you something. Very nice!
Thesis slayed the Minotaur and used wool to enter and follow his way out the labyrinth I believe. People think the the ruler would dress like a bull for some sort of ritual. Great video.
Beautiful and authentic ! Looks like such a grand time and adventure. I’ve only been to Santorini, nice but obviously missed the a more exclusive journey into Greece. Be awesome to visit for a few days at least - Ty for sharing 👍🍻
Funny - I watch your NYC videos, they're great! Now you're in my back yard in Greece and I found this video when looking up something about Crete :-) Thanks!
Who ever goes to Crete for 5 days is almost a fool without trying to be offensive. I have been to Crete 8 times, each 2-3 weeks. And still have things unexplored. A colleague of mine goes to Greece for the first time and goes 4 weeks to Crete. And THAT us how you should do Crete for the first time. At the absolutely bare minimum 2 weeks. 3 weeks is great ahd 4 weeks is wonderful anount
Hercules was the man who slayed the Bull. The Australian 6th Division alongside with the New Zealanders were on Crete when the German Paratroopers when they invaded the island in 1941 . Yep it certainly looks like food and beach heaven there in Crete 👍👍👍👍
Gorgeous. Had 3 days scheduled last September but had to cancel due to COVID. You’ve given us plenty of ideas once we rebook. Thanks. BTW. Thesus killed Minotaur.
@@HereBeBarr yes I know...just one small thing as far as I know there are travel restrictions from UK to Greece,in fact I don't quite understand how you are able to travel to Greece from the US ? anyhow..I'm OK staying out atm,there are some nice beaches around me here in the UK,only not much sunshine at present and the food doesn't look anywhere near as good !! what about the people,are they friendly? I should imagine Greece is very happy to be welcoming tourists back again...anyhow,not expecting a reply just kind of thinking out loud :) !!!
My kids wife and I have this on our radar for next year. I have a some friends/soccer parents who are from Greece who are convincing me to go and I have decided this to be our next location. Is there a lot of walking as I already like how this looks like a nice backpacking type of journey. Different than the all inclusive vacations we do.
If I knew you were going to Crete I could have offered you free accommodation! I have rental units in Heraklion...lived there 14 years! Glad you got to experience this wonderful island.
@HereBeBarr Love your video's! We go to crete in 2 weeks and i would love to know were in Chania we can try that delicious bougatsa (name of the restaurant/taverna) ? It looks so yummie on the screen too haha ;) Thank you. Your trips are inspiring!
Great video I'm going September. I'll go to that WWII museum. Do you know is there anything from WWII still standing? Like a bunker or something like that?
It was my first time on crete and I have to say, when I came here to make some Videos for my vlog I expected it to be really boring, but actually it IS REALLY WORTH VISITING! just a must see Island

this vid was amazing, can you tell me which hotels you visited in Crete are NOT pet friendly, I want to know which hotels do not allow pets at all.
"I think this is what travelling is about - meeting locals and eating the way they eat" I agree 100% !!
The only bad thing about Crete is that you need to visit it again and again for the full experience. But on the bright side, even a couple of days won't disappoint you as you can see top notch sceneries and of course amazing food.
That is the worst part, ahah
Crete is our favorite island! Such a gem with lots to offer. Really has it all 🇬🇷🇬🇷
Elafonisi Beach is such a stunner! One of the best beaches in the world
Looks like a long walk out to swim!
That Cretan hospitality is next level with the raki and dessert at the end of the meal!
Wow! All of these sights are making me want to visit Greece now 🤩 And fortune telling with coffee? That's new
Walking tour of the islands!!
Good "coffee" reader can tell you things.
I visited that beautiful island 4 years ago and I fell in love man! Great video!
Thanks Chris
As a Greek American, love that you are both in Greece showing us the sites. Thanks 👍😊.
Adriana is a real champ for driving in Crete on those winding roads!
you have NO idea
Great work Jon, you really captured the ‘feel’ of Greece! I need a holiday/ vacation right now! 🇬🇷
Glad you enjoyed it!
What an amazing trip! My husband and I would end up spending so much time with all the cats😻
They'll rip your skin off.
Greece is so amazing and beautiful! And, I LOVE the mythological connections!!
Theseus slayed the Minotaur! And I have to say that this video has put Greece at the top of our next travel list! We are waiting for our passport renewals to come back, and then, let the adventures commence!
Thanks Teresa. Got 2 more videos about different spots coming.
@@HereBeBarr Can't wait!!!
Fantastic video of a fantastic place! I can almost hear Tony the Tiger singing "It's more than good.... it's CREEEETE! "🐅
Hania and the whole Crete is one of my favourite destinations. Have been there many times and will go back for sure. Still good tips in this video and places I havent seen, thank you!
Love the claypot cooking! Cretan food is renowned in Greece 🇬🇷
We will visit Crete next spring, booked last week & can't wait x
Wonderful video. I've been to Crete several times. Love it! Theseus slew the dreaded minotaur with the help of princess Ariadne and a ball of twine.
I can totally recommend Sissi, we holiday there every year, it's a hidden gem!
Greek food is to die for. I had the best gyros of my life in crete
Oh my gosh it’s absolutely beautiful 🤩
Adriana’s reaction to fortune teller is priceless, 😬😃😹greetings from your mother, she likes your video and fortune teller prediction very much!🙀😄😁😬
hahaha
Very nice Jon, you made it all look incredible!
Looks amazing. Love the history and the beaches. Adriana’s reaction to the fortune tellers prediction was priceless 😀
🤣🤣🤣
I'm going on a vacation to NYC then Crete Greece. Whaching your videos, and you became my provider to a local food in these places. Thanks!
Great videos mate! As an Greek Aussie who loves and has used your videos before I travelled to NY - all great stuff!
Greece been on my list for a long time...can't wait 😊
The goats so funny😂😂😂😂😂😂 I can't breath😂
That cinnamon sugar bougatsa is where it’s at! Pairs perfectly with Greek coffee

Sissi in Crete is fabulous! enjoy Crete 🙂
This is a beautiful video to watch. Thank you both for sharing 👍🥰
Glad you enjoyed it
Really enjoyed this. Thanks for the well presented information.
Going there from Canada is 2 weeks a smarter option ?...or is 1 week lots ?
Awesome vlog. Always love your beautiful travels.

Beautiful and very Romantic. Love the way you create your videos. Enjoy and safe travels.
You are eating and drinking all the time! :-) I visited Crete five times, and it is absolutely delicious indeed.
Thesis slayed the Minotaur and used wool to enter and follow his way out the labyrinth I believe. People think the the ruler would dress like a bull for some sort of ritual. Great video.
Best video so far that I have watched on travel . And the food … amazing ! I subscribed to your channel yamas!!
This looks amazing!!
Great that you learned a word of Greek. Okay, two.
Going in a few days, cannot wait!!!!
how was it?
@@maricelagutierrez816 perfect
Spinalonga - great revelation to us.
Beautiful and authentic ! Looks like such a grand time and adventure. I’ve only been to Santorini, nice but obviously missed the a more exclusive journey into Greece. Be awesome to visit for a few days at least - Ty for sharing 👍🍻
Wow, this looks amazing! You guys are so lucky!
Awesome video! I'm in the beginning planning stages of our first trip to Greece. I can't wait to watch your other videos.
I'm here now at Iguana and I'm loving it ❤❤❤❤
I love watching you two enjoy each other’s company, Yamas from this side of the pond here in England (Brexitland 🇪🇺🤭) 🤗🥰😉
Love the Chania Market! Lots of great food in there
Kriti, my favourite Greek island.
Enjoy your stay! I'm in Crete also rn.
Funny - I watch your NYC videos, they're great! Now you're in my back yard in Greece and I found this video when looking up something about Crete :-) Thanks!
Cool video
Crete is an amazing place to visit - I was lucky to visit there and seen most of the places in the video
The hidden beach there looks beautiful! That water looks so blue! That is awesome that goats just chill on the beach.
That hidden Cove Beach reminds me of eternity Beach in Oahu, but somehow, even cooler!
i was exactly at that harbor. we took a sailing to trip to an island 1hr from there..lol crazy
crete is huge.there is so much more to see.
Another great video. You have a nose and a knack for finding Greek goodness with your goddess.
You’re a lucky man, my friend! Sounds like the trip of a lifetime!
Thanks Ed

Terrific historic notes in intro. The fact about paratroopers was notable.
Great video. Glad you guys had a great time
Прекрасный город, замечательный остров, колыбель европейской цивилизации
If you are still in Crete, go to Souda! My favorite beach!
Another wonderful video!❤️🇨🇦
Ahhh! This excites me to visit Chania on May ❤️
this is amazing, i was looking for a yt channel like urs finally founded Yamas from México
Hercules was the man who slayed the Bull.
The Australian 6th Division alongside with the New Zealanders were on Crete when the German Paratroopers when they invaded the island in 1941 .
Yep it certainly looks like food and beach heaven there in Crete 👍👍👍👍
Theseus
@@HereBeBarr oh I got it wrong, need to brush up on my Greek mythology 👀
💖🌷💖🌷💖 Love the channel !
Can’t wait to go wow!!!
Thank you, heading to Crete next week 🙌
Food in Dauniy Taverne looks delicious. Elafonissi beach is beautiful.
I fell in love with Crete!!!
;)
Thank you so much for sharing this with us❤
My pleasure 😊
Dude i was just there! - I want to go back!!!
Fantastic video!
Gorgeous. Had 3 days scheduled last September but had to cancel due to COVID. You’ve given us plenty of ideas once we rebook. Thanks.
BTW. Thesus killed Minotaur.
Winner ☝🏻
With much help from Ariadne ;-)
Great video on Greek culture and the local life on Crete!... Was the answer to your question, Theseus?
Yes i
For a second I was like Whitestone Queens looks gorgeous here! But then I realized this is actually Greece
hahahah
This looks so absolutely mouth-watering. The real thing. Theseus killed the minotaur.
i think the best place to visit is Spinalonga, the Island of the Lepers in Crete!
well worth a boat rtip over.
OMG that looks so amazing,beautiful Greece..I wanna go I wanna go so badly,you lucky B :)
You should!

Hello, My name is James and I'd like to be friends with you if you don't mind.

Fab! Can you please do North Sentinel next?
Great job. Thanks
Nice Vid John
Great video I'm going September. I'll go to that WWII museum. Do you know is there anything from WWII still standing? Like a bunker or something like that?
Such an amazing video, but how was everything in regards to covid? Did the Airbnb owners take extra precautions with sanitation?
It was my first time on crete and I have to say, when I came here to make some Videos for my vlog I expected it to be really boring, but actually it IS REALLY WORTH VISITING! just a must see Island
how can you possibly expect that to be boring 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Crete is beautiful! Thanks for sharing your trip. We are extremely jealous! -S
Theseus battled the Minotaur in the labyrinth😊
KRSNA is a great killer of demons too😮
Beautiful place
Coming home soon 🇬🇷
Beautiful country,..the water is so blue!..have you been to Hawaii?..their beaches are pristine also..!👍
Yes i loved Hawaii
i have a dream to take my mom one day! but she has bad knees :/ do you think she could still enjoy crete? are the roads paved enough?
