Mountain Biking in Crete

 You may wish to explore part of this lovely island by mountain bike during your stay with us.

Guided MTB tours are available from our friends at Olympic Bike Travel (click to visit their website). Tours take in some of the most beautiful parts of the island, and come in 2 levels: Level I being easiest, Level II rather more strenuous. If you combine a stay at Footscapes with an MTB package, we will offer you a 5% discount against the cost of your bike tour (but not accommodation cost). Combine a stay at Footscapes with an MTB package and some guided walking and we will offer you a 5% discount against the combined cost of your chosen cycling/walking activities (but not accommodation cost). Please contact us for further details.

If you simply wish to have a few days cycle hire without guiding while at Footscapes, we can easily arrange this using cycles either from Olympic Bike Travel or from our friend Nikos Galanis (see rate card below). Cycles can usually be delivered to Footscapes and collected from here at the end of the hire period - all you have to do is ride them out of the front gate and enjoy the scenery!

Please note that we only arrange cycle hire or tours for clients staying in Footscapes' studios. If  you are not staying here and wish to arrange this yourself whilst staying in the Rethymno area, please contact either Olympic Bike Travel or Nikos Galanis directly.
