The 4x4 adventure of Crete!

We offer you all the elements that combine for a splendid holiday in Crete: 4x4, adventure, culture, villages, barbeque, landscapes and freedom on the beautiful island of Crete Greece. See Crete with a jeep.

Jeep safari: We will leave from Gournes at 9.00 AM after breakfast. We will visit the centre of Crete with our group of jeeps. The whole day we will mostly be driving off-road. Between 10.30 and 11.00 AM we will stop for coffee at an old Greek Kafenion (Greek traditional coffeehouse). After our coffee break we continue our off-road jeep safari through central Crete. You can expect to see lots of culture this day! You will also see many beautiful, old Greek villages in the mountains. Around 1.00 PM we will enjoy lunch in the lovely village of Kastraki. After lunch we continue our tour through the mountains. We return to Zorbas in the afternoon around 5.00 PM, where you can enjoy a cold drink and a dive in the swimming pool. Nothing is more refreshing after an adventurous Jeep safari.

In addition to our summer jeep safaris on Crete, we also organize jeep safaris in the winter. We can offer you a holiday with accommodation and a jeep, so you can explore Crete off-road for 2, 3 or even 7 days during your winter holiday in Crete Greece.

What to expect of a jeep safari: We offer you rented jeeps (4x4). Four persons maximum are allowed per jeep. We will provide you all the meals and drinks for the day. If you are afraid of heights, you are still very welcome to join our jeep safari, though we suggest that you do not take a turn driving. Everybody with a valid driver’s license is allowed to drive during our jeep safari, but it is not mandatory and those who do not wish to drive are still welcome. Jeep safari adventure on Crete, summer and winter.

Every winter we develop a new jeep safari. Many of our guests who visit us repeatedly at Zorbas Beach, Crete like to experience a different jeep safari every year. The main focus of a jeep safari is to explore Crete’s nature, villages, mountains, culture and sea sides. We are able to offer you a DVD of all the adventures and fun we have experienced during our jeep safaris.

Conditions: you will have to rent your own jeep which will be delivered to Zorbas Beach. You will need a valid driver’s license. We need a minimum of 4 jeeps and a the maximum number of jeeps is 10. The first jeep and last jeep must be driven by one of our Zorbas chauffeurs.

We are able to offer you six different jeep safaris. Every summer we start with a new jeep safari which brings new fun, adventure, culture and beautiful landscapes! We also organize a 7 day off-road tour of Crete. If you would like more information about this tour, please click on our link Crete off-road in 7 days. Many times our guests at Zorbas Beach like to go on several jeep safaris while on holiday in Crete. This is no problem at all, you are able to join any jeep safari as often as you like! We can also offer you a longer jeep safari. We will leave at 8.00 AM and return to Zorbas around 6.00 PM.

We prefer not to reveal too much information about our routes over the internet, because we like to keep our jeep safaris unique! Our jeep safaris on Crete are always a new and exciting adventure.
