At Amazonas Park, which spans over 20 acres, your little explorers can feed a lemur! 

It might seem surprising to find such exotic animals on Crete, but here, it’s all part of the fun. 

Wander through the park and get up close with some of the friendliest creatures—just make sure to pick up some food to hand-feed them!

Afterward, it's just a 10-minute drive to the town of Neapolis, where you can stroll through its quaint alleys and admire the old Ottoman fountains scattered along the way. 

Don't miss a walk around the town’s central square and a visit to the peaceful municipal garden.

For a quieter, more picturesque spot to finish your excursion, head to Limnes, a village known for its serene atmosphere and beautiful old houses with well-kept gardens.

The locals here are incredibly welcoming, and you'll be treated to some of the best traditional dishes.

For a truly authentic meal, stop by Christini’s Taverna, where the hospitality flows as freely as the delicious food. 

Be sure to try the oven-roasted meat and the famous potato omelette (sfoungato), a local specialty!
