Your Private Driver Chauffeur Service in Crete

This is our celebrated travel design that opens with a sunrise ritual above the birthplace of gods — a true Lassithi Sky Safari over Crete’s most mythic plateau.

Before the island fully wakes, when the light is still silver and the air carries mountain silence, the balloon rises above the Lassithi Plateau. Windmills of Seli Ampelou become geometry. Fields turn into mosaics. The Dikti Mountains frame the horizon where, according to legend, Zeus first opened his eyes.

This is not simply a hot air balloon ride in Crete. It is a curated aerial passage into East Crete’s inner landscape — followed by a private day journey shaped around local knowledge, village life, sacred caves and authentic culinary expression.

From the sky, the plateau feels infinite. From the ground, it becomes intimate. With your private driver and local guide, the experience continues beyond the flight — through Krasi village springs, the Cave of Zeus, hidden monasteries, ceramic ateliers, olive estates and mountain kitchens where food is still memory.

Our Crete hot air balloon safari is conceived as a full-scale luxury day journey — never compressed, never commercial. A sunrise flight of approximately 40–50 minutes becomes the emotional center of a 6–8 hour private East Crete journey.

This is the Lassithi Plateau as an elevated story: air, earth, and the kind of freedom that stays with you.
