Join us, Canadian retirees Frank and Daphne on our Greek Adventure in 2018 as we embark on our first ever cycle tour. This video features a visit to Santorini en route to Crete where we start our cycle tour in Heraklion and ride east and eventually down to the south coast. This episode takes us to Tsoutourous where we hit some rough weather. See the continuation in Episode 2.
The pace is very laid back – no mileage records being broken here! We stop and spend time in places we like and enjoy coffees and beers often!

Pretty uphill, right? I was short of breath with you.
Inspiring! Got us motivated to go👍 Great vid & effort ❤️
I have watched a lot of touring videos, but I really enjoy the way you present your tour, very relaxed and enjoyable. Keep posting.
I am glad you didn't take the taxi up that hill on Santorini : 50 euros is highway robbery. ( in Canada myself) so you flew with the bikes to Athens, then took a ferry or flew to the first island before Santorini ? Was curious about getting a bike out of Athens airport. Thinking Greece (mainland) is not the most cycle friendly place in Europe, but your tour on Crete looked very pleasant. I had misgivings about what has been developed in Matala since Joni's time, but glad to hear much of it can still be enjoyed. Other than Frank
's missing pannier…. did you feel you and your possessions were mostly safe and secure on the island ? Very impressive for a first tour… wanted to do it mostly low tech as well, just my phone camera, bike and camping gear I already have, etc.
You guys are amazing. Love the story about the taxi driver.
Beautiful. Take Greta with you next time.
