Papa; best advice really would be to hire a car or bikes and get out and explore the interior of the island.
Some spectacular mountain passes and valleys which in the summer smell of all the wild herbs that grow by the roadside.
As far as excursions Rhethymnon is worth a trip - medieval walled city with great wandering potential, and of course the Knossos towards Heraklion etc is worth a trip.
We are off to Rhethymnon in a few weeks and have hired a couple of mountain bikes for me and my lad (can't be arsed lazing by the pool for 10 days)!
Any advice on where to explore? Happy to cycle 30 miles a day or a bit more!!
Thanks
