About Heraklion
Heraklion is Crete's capital and largest city, with a port that receives cruise ships directly near the city waterfront. The Heraklion Archaeological Museum houses one of the world's finest collections of Minoan artifacts, and the Palace of Knossos — Europe's oldest city and the center of Minoan civilization — is just outside the city, a short drive from the port. The city's Venetian harbor, fortress, and market streets are all within easy walking distance.
Highlights
Gateway to Knossos, the 4,000-year-old palace heart of Minoan civilization.
