The Knossos Palace Small Group Guided Tour with Entry Tickets covers the Bronze Age Minoan palace complex outside Heraklion, Crete, considered the largest archaeological site of its kind on the island. Excavations began in 1900 under Arthur Evans, who also directed the partial reconstruction of the palace, including the restored Throne Room and the Grand Staircase.
The guided tour is conducted in small groups, allowing closer access to key areas including the Central Court, the frescoed corridors, and the storage magazines lined with large ceramic pithoi. A licensed guide explains the site's layout, Minoan history, and the mythology associated with the labyrinth. Entry tickets are included in the price, covering full access to the archaeological site for the duration of the tour.
