Rethymnon, Crete, Greece Holiday Review - For the older Crowd
Submitted by: Olivia
Date of travel: 19-April-2005
Rethymnon is ideal for older couples. My parents traveled there to celebrate 42 lovely years together and they said it was the perfect pace for them. Being rich in history of over 1000 years they entertained themselves by taking tours and visiting the museums. For eats and conversation they went to the centre where the joined other couples to discuss the younger days and the tragedies of these times (better other couples than me!). They told me that the environment was quite lovely and relaxing and that it was very interesting to learn about the history of the place that they were visiting today. I saw pictures and became fascinated with the beauty and historical sights.
