Package holiday to Chania

Chania is considered the most beautiful city in Crete and enchants with its picturesque Venetian harbor, the iconic lighthouse, and a labyrinthine old town made up of Venetian, Ottoman, and Byzantine layers. The former arsenals at the harbor, where Venetian galleys were once built, now host exhibitions and events, while the Hasan Pasha Mosque stands as a striking relic of the Ottoman era, shaping the harbor square.

The old town of Chania is one of the most atmospheric in the entire Mediterranean: In the Jewish quarter Evraiki, the scent of leather-filled workshops wafts through the air, in the Splantzia district, ancient plane trees stand next to Turkish minarets, and in Topanas, elegant Venetian palaces line the streets. The covered market (Agora), a cross-shaped building from 1913, is a feast for the senses with Cretan cheese, olive oil, herbs, honey, and fresh fish. The Maritime Museum and the Archaeological Museum in the former Church of San Francesco round off the cultural offerings.

The surroundings of Chania offer spectacular nature: The Samaria Gorge, at 16 kilometers, is one of the longest gorges in Europe, starting in the White Mountains and ending at the Libyan Sea. The beaches of Balos (a turquoise lagoon) and Falassarna (golden sand, spectacular sunsets) are among the most beautiful in Crete. The hinterland with the White Mountains (Lefka Ori, up to 2,453 meters) offers excellent hiking terrain. Chania is the perfect base for Western Crete — enough city culture for rainy days and endless nature for sunny ones.

Chania particularly impresses with fascinating culture, excellent cuisine. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
