We spent a week in Heraklion and used this company for all of our journeys during our stay. All was communicated through WhatsApp, so really easy to send a text to communicate. The cars were always clean and the drivers made sure we always felt comfortable on our journeys as the roads are pretty unique in Heraklion!! They were always cheaper than Uber and the drivers have all the local knowledge so better if in traffic! Definitely recommend!!
