Starting from the idyllic Sissi with your rental car from AutoRentals Crete you will very easily find ourselves on National Highway 75.
Although the options are many, an excursion that will remain unforgettable without being too far and perhaps tiring is to drive West for a while to visit the Archaeological site of Malia.
Right next to it is the beautiful beach of Potamos to enjoy a swim and after having something to eat in the canteen to continue west to the Aquarium in Gournes.
After this visit you can continue west and once you reach Heraklion head south to Archanes where you can have lunch in one of the traditional taverns of this traditional village.
After the meal and after taking a walk in the village, Knossos which is very close awaits for a visit in the afternoon with less people.
You can tour the Ancient Palace on your own or choose a guide at the entrance to show you around.
Once you’re done touring, Sissi is just 45km away.
