The palace was great, a lit bit more of information in the place would be perfect though, and also more books in spanish on the palace store. The ticketing experience wss friendly, easy and quick.

The tour itself is magnificent, but the audio guide on the mobile is indispensable to make it perfect. We enjoyed it very much. The voice was pleasant, the story told with sympathy, and the story she told was truthful and entertaining. Everything was perfect.

Convenience of using the app, and the audio tour on our phones was great. Being able to skip the line and just go through the entrance was worth the price.

We loved visiting Knossos. It was the whole reason I traveled to Crete. It was an inspiring place and I was so happy to know that it was an egalitarian society that valued the input of women in government and religion.

Ticket was emailed as a pdf and we walked directly to the main entrance and showed the tickets on the phone. Arrived early for decent and easy free parking.

The ticketing experience was great. It was very convenient to skip the line and enter the site directly. The site itself was interesting, though rather small, requiring only about one hour to walk through and read all the signs. It is a shame that Arthur Evans choose to desecrate such a historical site and fabricate so much the story.

I highly recommend taking the queue-cutting tickets because the line is long and the visit is really great.

Great experience, skipped the ticket line and went into the site without any delays. The site was crowded and the line to the Throne room too long, but we enjoyed Knossos very much. Definitely recommend a visit!

Ho vissuto per una giornata la grecità più pura di un'isola che trasuda storia da ogni poro. Vedere i resti dell' imponente Palazzo di Cnosso mi ha lasciato meravigliato.

Buying the tickets in advance saved a lot of time The free parking at the top of the hill, next to the Taverna and having lunch there prior to the tour was really good The tour of the site lived up to expectations and I would definitely recommend it

Easy to find, with tickets purchased online we got in almost immediately. Too bad we couldn't find the audio guides because I don't know if they weren't there or it wasn't well indicated where to get them.

The tickets worked very well but the excursion is not recommended. The place is poorly signposted, there are not enough signs telling the history of the place and you don't even know where you are going. The exit is not signposted either. In the bathroom they tried to charge us for using napkins. A pity that a place with so much history leaves a taste of nothing.
