Warsaw - Heraklion: let's fly into summer
Heraklion is a city that doesn't try to be loud. It simply takes you by the hand and leads you to where it's warm: to the sea, to myths, to the taste of real olive oil and to its own special rhythm, in which you want to stay longer. The connection Warsaw - Heraklion sounds like a contrast, but in fact the route can also give you a little harmony. It's just a little calmer and much sunnier here.
Everything here breathes history, but without pathos. The Kules fortress against the backdrop of the turquoise sea, the shadows of the columns of the Knossos Palace, old streets where laundry dries right above your heads - and there is something very real in all this. And here you can also get a special pleasure from breakfast. It is worth trying the crispy baklava and coffee, which is brought in a glass on a saucer with an obligatory slice of fresh orange.
No one forces you to run to the museum. You can just sit in a cafe on the beach overlooking the waves, order moussaka, fried zucchini or light dakos - and nothing more is needed. In Heraklion, the main attraction is the mood.
But here are a few little things that will make your vacation even more enjoyable:
- Sunscreen is almost always needed - even in spring the sun can be scorching.
- Public transport is convenient, but walking is still better. Everything in the center is close.
- From the airport to the city - 10-15 minutes. So choose a taxi or a transfer.
- The best photos? The fortress at dawn or the evening port with the light of lanterns in the waves.
The flight Warsaw - Heraklion is a ticket to the Greek summer. To where you can walk in sandals, watch the sunset and forget what day of the week it is. And SkyUpβ’ will make sure that your journey to Heraklion begins carefree - with a smile on your face and lightness in your heart.
