Georgioupolis: Chania & Monasteries Guided Day Trip

Explore Chania Old Town, visit the Gouverneto and Agia Triada Monasteries, and enjoy breathtaking views from the Venizelos Graves viewpoint on a guided day trip from Georgioupolis.
Begin your day with a pickup from your hotel or accommodation. Head to the peaceful village of Kalami for a short break. Enjoy local snacks or coffee while soaking in stunning views over Souda Bay.

Next, visit the Gouverneto Monastery, a true spiritual sanctuary built in the 16th century. Walk through its peaceful grounds, admire the stone-carved architecture, and feel the mysticism of one of the oldest monastic sites in Crete.

Continue to the nearby Agia Triada Monastery, one of the most beautiful and active Orthodox monasteries in Greece. Surrounded by olive groves and vineyards, this monument reflects the influence of Venetian architecture and houses a small museum and shop with handmade products by the monks.

Arrive at Venizelos Graves, a tranquil hilltop site where two of Greece’s most influential politicians – Eleftherios and Sofoklis Venizelos – are buried. Enjoy breathtaking views of Chania city and the coastline while having a coffee or light snack.

Visit the Archaeological Museum of Chania (ticket €6, not included), located in a beautifully restored former Venetian monastery. The museum holds important finds from Minoan to Roman times – pottery, sculptures, jewelry, mosaics – offering a deep insight into Crete’s historical richness.

Finally, enjoy free time to wander through Chania Old Town, one of the most picturesque urban areas in all of Greece. Explore the maze of alleys, shop for local goods, enjoy lunch at a traditional taverna, or relax with a coffee at the vibrant Venetian harbor, with its iconic lighthouse and colorful atmosphere.
