Day 6

Rise and shine to yoga with Joanna and breakfast at your hotel, spend the rest of the morning at leisure enjoying the pool and beach that surrounds you. Later in the afternoon, we depart to visit the 3,500-year-old Minoan palace of Knossos, a sprawling maze of royal chambers, grand staircases, storerooms, and workshops. This evocative Bronze Age site is believed to be Europe’s oldest city. A professional English-speaking guide will escort you on this visit as you step back in time. Head toward Heraklion's center where you are given a tour of the city with leisure time to follow. After dinner on your own, we’ll return to the hotel for the rest of the evening at leisure.
