This guide has everything you need to know about the island. Particularly useful for people interested in Byzantine churches and frescoes, the map and directions to churches are very helpful, as the information given on Crete is not always correct from websites. A word of warning for Panaghia Kera Church near Krista, it was closed on Monday, at least in March, luckily went on a Sunday. Otherwise the hours and information were correct, but the opening times of places in Crete seem to change at will. This is more of a cultural guide than for people looking for restaurant info and hotels, I use the web for that.
