Creator's Key Takeaways

Knossos Palace isn't what RacQuelle expected, but overall she had a wonderful port day!

I absolutely love that especially when I'm visiting a place for the first time

this just isn't my speed probably should have done a tour but honestly looking at the crowds with the tours it's probably going to be too hard to hear

I honestly didn't learn anything because my device I couldn't figure it out and there's no refund so lesson learned

Creator's Tips & Advice

Download the Knossos Palace app before you arrive to get audio guides or book a tour
Consider visiting Knossos Palace in October for lower prices and fewer crowds
Dine early to beat the crowds and avoid long lines in the main dining room
Pack accordingly for dining: ladies need dresses or slacks, men need slacks (no shorts)
