Car routes and puzzel tours
We offer different car routes over whole Crete. Every route is between 50 and 300 kilometer. In the summer we organise puzzel tours with those car routes. Using GPS and car routes the teams have to search for the questions and awnser them. In the afternoon we will have a lunch somewhere on a nice place.
