Explore the Palace of Knossos at your own pace with a self-guided walking tour built for on-site use. Streetmodo turns your phone into a personal guide with GPS-aware playback, clear directions, offline support, and engaging storytelling that brings Minoan Crete to life.
Walk through one of the most famous archaeological sites in Greece and discover the world of King Minos, the Labyrinth, the Minotaur, royal ceremonies, storerooms, frescoes, and the dramatic architecture that made Knossos the symbolic heart of Bronze Age Crete. This tour is designed for travelers who want flexibility, depth, and a richer experience than static signs alone can offer.
The route follows the visitor sequence through the palace, guiding you from the West Court to the Theatral Area with carefully written audio commentary at each major stop. Along the way, you will explore places such as the Kouloures, West Porch, South Propyleum, West Magazines, Throne Room, Central Court, Grand Staircase, Queen’s Megaron, Hall of the Double Axes, North Entrance, and more.
What you get in the app:
