Theriso Village, with its dramatic mountain scenery and gorge, sits at 580 m at the foothills of the massive Lefka Ori or White Mountain range in the west of Crete. The beautiful gorge with its dramatic scenery can be seen from the road as it runs along the bed of the gorge for 6 km, accompanying the tree-lined river and surrounded by the greenery of chestnuts and oaks. Of course the gorge also makes a wonderful walk in the clean mountain air, and is popular with rock climbers and hikers.
The road from Chania city to Theriso is one of the most picturesque in Crete, as for about 6 km it ascends along the Therisos Gorge. It is a gorge with steep cliffs and lush vegetation that will not fail to impress you, and which you can enjoy during our tour.
Theriso is one of the most historic villages in Crete on top of a spectacular gorge.
Theriso is famous for its beauty and its rich and important history. The mother of Eleftherios Venizelos came from the settlement. The great politician started the 1905 Revolution from Theriso. A house that was used as headquarters then is in the village and can be visited. A museum related to the Cretan Revolution is also in the village.
Our e-bike tour of Theriso Village invites you to reflect on the beauty and wonder of our journey together. From the rugged mountain trails to the quaint village streets, every moment has been filled with adventure and discovery. Our experienced guides lead you through this enchanting landscape, sharing their knowledge and passion for the region along the way. As you bid farewell to Theriso, you’ll take with you the memories of panoramic vistas, ancient olive groves, and the warmth of Cretan hospitality. We hope this experience will ignite your love for exploration and leave you eager to discover more of the breathtaking beauty that Chania has to offer.
On our trip to Chania, at the beginning of November (2025), my friend and I were most fortunate to be referred to Tour Point and Apostolis for an e-bike tour into the mountains. Our adventure with Tour Point was completely magical and the highlight of our trip to Crete. As we pedaled along in stunning landscape, Apostolis (our attentive guide and truly lovely person) shared his vast knowledge of the history of the area and his own observations about life on Crete, which was all very interesting and appreciated. Herds of goats wandered on and off the road (Apostolis was very patient as I stopped to film them) and eagles swooped overhead. We topped the day off with a delicious break in a village taverna and sampling yummy honey from a local beekeeper family. (Apostolis kindly carried some of what we purchased back down for us). The e-bikes were top notch too, in excellent condition (maintained by Apostolis), and definitely a step up from the e-bikes we have rented previously. Truly a very fun, beautiful, and memorable day! Totally highly recommend Tour Point and Apostolis for a tour in Crete!
I was able to get a lot in during my trip to Athens and Crete, but this tour was probably my favorite experience over all. The Cretans are easily some of the kindest, friendliest people on earth and our guide Apo was no acceptation. He provided transportation for us, and He was happy to wait a few minutes while we had a coffee before beginning the ride. By the end of the tour Apo felt like a good friend. The ride itself was breath taking. Not physically, the E-Bikes make that aspect a breeze. But seeing the natural beautify of the Crete country was something else. We stopped to sample organic honey, and have lunch in a small town up in the White Mountains. All included in the tour. Which was priced very reasonably I must add. I hope to get back to Crete some day, and when I do. I would love to do this again!
Good service, good bikes, good suggestions. We have done an amazing bike tour. Heidi and Rupert from Austria
Truly a highlight of our trip to Crete! If you do nothing else, book an e-bike tour with Tour Point. Our trip with Apostolis to the small town of Therisso gave us everything we had hoped for in an opportunity to experience authentic Crete. E-bikes afforded an easy way to ride to the very top of the gorge for amazing views of Chania. Just challenging enough and so enjoyable! You’ll see farms, avocado and olive groves, and friendly goats along the way, not to mention the beautiful Cretan countryside, with a friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable guide, enjoy coffee and a snack at a Cretan cafe, meet some locals and some other tourists, and try some of the best local honey you’ll find (be sure to bring some home!). Be ready for a long, thrilling, downhill ride at the end. Convenient, too — we were picked up right outside of our Airbnb. It was a perfect way to start the day! Don’t miss it!!
Wir haben eBikes gemietet. Bei der Übergabe hat er uns Touren vorgeschlagen und gleich eine Tour mit Sehenswürdigkeiten inkl. Einkehrmöglichkeiten auf Google Maps zusammengestellt und uns zugestellt. Er hat sich Tagsüber mehrmals bei uns erkundigt ob alles in Ordnung ist. Die eBikes sind in einem guten Zustand und die Ladekabel werden auch abgegeben. Zudem wurden Helme und Fahrradschlösser abgegeben. Wir können das Geschäft durchaus weiter empfehlen????????
Belle matinée en vélo dans l arrière pays avec notre guide sympathique. Dégustation miel local et dégustation produit local. Un bel échange sur l histoire locale. Nous nous sommes régalés
