Nous avons telecharger les audio guides comme recommandé. Nous n'avons pas eu de problème particulier. Par contre les infos de navigations ne sont pas toujours très claire. Il nous a fallu un temps d'adaptation et de compréhension pour comprendre comment ça fonctionnait. A mon sens il n'y avait pas assez d'objet décrit par l'audio guide dans le musée. Mais c'était bien quand même.

Beide Erlebnisse waren großartig. Es ging schnell mit der Buchung und es war ganz simpel mit den Audioguides. Leider hat die Audiowiedergabe manchmal nicht funktioniert. Die Wegbeschreibung war oft nicht nötig und deutlich lauter, als die restlichen Informationen. Sonst war es super.

Wir wussten nicht, wie viel Zeit wir in Knossos brauchen, haben daher das Museum im Anschluss erst ab 15:00 gebucht. Wir waren aber bereit um 12:00 dort und durften nicht hinein. Unser Zeitfenster war noch geschlossen. Man darf, wenn man z.b. von 15-16 Uhr bucht ab 14 Uhr und bis 17 Uhr hinein. Das hätten wir gerne vorab gewusst. 2 Stunden "totachlagen" war schon mühsam. Aber alles in allem, es hat sich dann doch gelohnt.

Discover the wonderous history of two of the top historical attractions in Crete – the Heraklion Archaeological Museum and the Knossos Palace.

With an in-depth English audio guide – downloadable onto your smartphone – this is definitely a hassle-free and informative way to visit two outstanding locations.

At the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, you'll see exquisite pieces of Cretan art, prehistory, and history, over 5,500 years old from the Neolithic period to Roman times.

La audioguia del Museo está bastante bien, aunque a veces no es obvio donde se encuentran los objetos. En el Palacio la descripción es mejorable y el mapa y la ruta deberían ser mas evidentes. Ambos lugares son muy interesantes, pero eché en falta una referencia al laberinto que no pudimos ver por ello.

Tenía muchas ganas de conocer la cultura minoica, ha sido una visita fantástica, y he aprendido muchísimo .

Prepare to visit two of the top archaeological attractions of Crete – the Palace of Knossos and the Heraklion Archaeological Museum. Enjoy a captivating self-guided audioguide tour at both locations.

Heraklion Archaeological Museum

At the center of Minoan art and historic preservation, this museum experience is sure to enthrall you with one-of-a-kind exhibits, artifacts, frescoes, and more. Your audio guide not only has history and facts but also includes more than 80 stories about the Minoan era. Built between 1904 - 1907, the Museum houses the most valuable pieces of Cretan prehistory and history in the world, spanning 5,500 years old. Some of the figurines you’ll see include Seated Female Figurine, Snake Goddess figurines – a group of ancient sculptures excavated in 1903 in the Minoan palace at Knossos – The Poppy Goddess, and more.

Other significant artifacts you simply can’t miss are the Golden Bee Pendant, Phaistos Disc, Minos Ring, and Stone Bull’s Head Rhyton, etc. Priceless frescoes include the Bull-Leaping Fresco, Blue Bird Fresco, The Cup Bearer, Prince of the Lillies, and more.

Knossos Palace

Discover the ancient Minoan capital of Knossos through immersive storytelling and a wonderfully informative audio guide. The Knossos Palace is not only one of the most luxurious palaces in the world but also one of the oldest ones.

Start the tour by exploring the South Propylaeum which depicts the scenes of everyday life and activities in Minoan Crete. Follow the evolution of Minoan fashion as you learn about the hairstyles and beauty products that were used. Head onto the West Magazines where the storage facilities of the palace are located. Get to know about the well-organized bureaucracy and the trade networks of the Minoan economy which supported the palace organization.

At the South Entrance Corridor, gaze out at Mount Juktas and discover a copy of the Prince of the Lilies. Find out everything about the bath habits in the Minoan era as you visit the Queen’s Megaron which is beautifully decorated with blue dolphin frescoes.
