About us

Authenticity, Adventure, Tradition & Freedom

Get started learning the hidden parts of Crete

Cretan Safari, a proud subsidiary of LocalTrips4U, unveils the soul of Crete through private and small-group tours across the northern and southern parts of the Lasithi prefecture. Guided by those who honor the old, authentic paths of the island, we design experiences that lead you where the true heart of Crete beats – through hidden villages, fertile plains, dramatic gorges, and traditional coffee houses.

And of course, because real discovery demands real comfort, we use premium 4WD SUVs and luxury minivans for all our tours. No bumpy rides in tired vehicles here – we offer adventure in style, just as your grandfather would have done if you handed him a fine jeep and told him, “Take me where time forgets to pass.” With a sharp eye, deep respect for authenticity, and a heart that seeks what truly matters, our tours don’t just take you somewhere – they connect you to the real Crete.

    In Lasithi, the mountains are more than just a backdrop — they are silent guardians of ancient secrets and living traditions. Here, the wind carries the spirit of Crete across plateaus, gorges, and forgotten villages. Every path leads to a story, every stone holds a memory. This is a land where authenticity breathes in every corner, untouched by time, waiting for those who seek the true heart of the island.
