Explor.gr: Lassithi Safari Expedition

Experience the unique Lassithi Safari excursion offered by Explor.gr, where you'll delve into the diverse landscapes and awe-inspiring mountain summits, believed to be the birthplace of Zeus, the king of the Gods. This adventure includes a visit to the very cave where Zeus is said to have been born, all while relishing the panoramic vistas of the picturesque Lassithi Plateau.

Your journey commences from Hersonissos, with essential guidance provided by the excursion's guide. Heading southward towards the Lassithi Plateau, you'll first encounter the Aposelemis Dam, offering views of the abandoned village of Sfendyli, its visibility depending on the water level. Continuing along a country road, passing through olive groves, you'll reach the charming village of Amariano, where the remnants of a Roman aqueduct stand testament to history.

This extraordinary journey also includes a visit to the remarkable Cave of Psychro.

Continuing on, a few kilometres down the road, you'll have the opportunity to explore the Monastery of Kera, a highly significant religious landmark in Crete.
