Explore Chania Town, Venetian Harbor, and Ancient Aptera.

Archaeological Site of Ancient Aptera.
Learn about the ancient city of Aptera. Our first stop after an interesting drive up will be the ‘’Ancient site of Ap-tera’’ and ‘’fortress of Koules’’. Explore the Roman cisterns, the monastery, the picturesque church, and the absolutely beautiful ancient theatre that still remains. At the archaeological site of Aptera, you will be able to admire findings of all periods of inhabitation of this City-State. The walls of the ancient city, which is 3.480 meters long, dating back to its acne period, of the 4th century BC. Afterward, we have time to take magnificent photos of the view to Souda Bay from the Fortress of Koules. The view from there is absolutely breathtaking! Time spending there is about 1h30m.
