Getting around Crete.

Crete welcomes visitors with reduced mobility to explore its diverse landscapes and rich cultural heritage. Mobility equipment including wheelchairs, mobility scooters, walkers, and patient hoists can be booked across the island in numerous towns and villages, from major cities like Heraklion, Chania, and Rethimno to smaller destinations such as Palaiochora, Bali, and Kournas. While Chania's picturesque charm and Rethimno's historic old town and waterfront attract many visitors, accessibility varies throughout these areas—some streets feature uneven curb cuts and limited ramps into shops and restaurants. Advance planning and exploring different routes can help maximize your experience.

The local supplier failed to provide a mobility scooter and gave me an electric wheelchair for one day while they obtained a scooter. They said they would give me a refund which they didn’t at first. They came to collect the scooter today. I said I should have the scooter an extra day to make up for this. They allowed this and gave me €20 compensation
