Excursion Description
VIP Private Tour
You are going to visit the absolute winner of the year Elafonisi beach, which was awarded & crowned as the BEST beach in the WORLD in 2025 by TripAdvisor users!! P.s. Praised as the destination that “has to be seen - to be believed". Elafonissi is famous for pink-sand lagoon, gentle shallow water and a dreamlike shoreline. Elafonissi is a rare landscape of pale sand - sometimes tinged pink - with shallow lagoons, a tiny walkable islet and warm, shallow waters that make it a family favourite and a photographer’s paradise. The road there unfolds through wild gorges, remote olive country and small villages; each bend raises anticipation until the lagoon appears like a postcard.
We time your visit to avoid crowds and to catch the best light. Relax on the sandbanks, wade through warm shallows, walk the little island and discover quiet coves that reward slower exploration. Choose to combine the day with a curated lunch at a local taverna or a village wine tasting - all arranged if you pick the full Volanna package. Return in our luxury Mercedes-Vito with a handpicked gift and the calm satisfaction of a day in one of Crete’s most iconic spots.
