The tour itself is magnificent, but the audio guide on the mobile is indispensable to make it perfect. We enjoyed it very much. The voice was pleasant, the story told with sympathy, and the story she told was truthful and entertaining. Everything was perfect.

Convenience of using the app, and the audio tour on our phones was great. Being able to skip the line and just go through the entrance was worth the price.

Easy to book. Downloaded App and was able to to download tickets to it so easy to open when out without wifi.
Bought combo ticket for Knossos and archeological museum. Chose 8am entry got Knossos but was automatically given a 1pm entry got museum - we arrived 10.30am do had to go away and come back 12pm as they wouldn't let us in more than 1hr before ticket time.

The palace was beautiful to see and there is so much to explore. The Minoan art, the views and history made it a great day. The ticketing system was so easy. We scanned our qr code and got in fast without any issues. Would recommend this booking method as it is fast and easy.

The entire site is memorable and definitely worth seeing. I think things could be a little clearer about downloading the accompanying app both on the Headout site and the actual site itself, as we were mucking around trying to download the app after entry, but the QR code was on the outside of the entrance!

Great tour great facilities to purchase a frappe well maintained. Parking near by. Nice info available in front of each site. Only annoying thing is after waiting in line for the bathrooms i discovered I need to pay which is fine 1 euro but i didn't have my purse with me so I lost my spot in line. Post before warning would be helpful I was not the only one.

It's beautiful experience, the rests of the palace is expectible fascinanting, and the audio guide was very interesting and precising. It was very hot, you need to have bottle of water, and closed shoes.
