HERAKLION CITY TOUR
LIONS SQUARE AND MOROSINI FOUNTAIN
The Lions in Heraklion is the square of the Fontana Morosini, the ornate Venetian fountain
with four lions with water gushing from their mouths. The Fontana Morosini is in
Eleftheriou Venizelou Square in the centre of Heraklion, but the inhabitants of the city never
use the official name, usually referring to it as the Lions Square or the Lions for short.
The fountain with the lions is the most important monuments the
Venetians destowed on Heraklion. When it was built, it offered a solution to the
problem of supplying Heraklion with water, providing 1000 barrels of water a day.

Why Choose Safe Rides Transfer

Superb!! On time, great price, very nice luxury car and driver and the best thing was they have great communications so you know exactly what is happening at all times - highly recommended

Very good service. Fast replies, pickup on time, our flight was delayed several times and the taxi service changed pickup time for us

This company was fabulous. They communicated prior to pick up & we really couldn’t have asked for more. The complimentary refreshment was an unexpected wonderful touch.

Great service, on time, punctual, and pleasant driver. 👍😊 Easy to book and has multiple payment options. 💲💳 The price is good compared to others and is cheaper than booking through a hotel. 💰✅ Highly recommend. 💯🌟

Sehr unkompliziert! Fahrer war pünktlich da! Schönes sauberes Auto klimatisiert. Sehr empfehlenswert!

The driver was on time with big and confortable car. The price is very interesting. I ll book again with that company !

Came across them by accident as they are used by the vineyard we were visiting as a transfer service. Excellent service, arrived promptly, and excellent careful driving and auper friendly. Lovely comfy Merc suv. So good we booked them for our airport transfer as they were very competitive compared to local taxi companies. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again for transfers and anything else next time we are in crete.

Costas was prompt, drove safe, was friendly, and informative! I would definitely recommend Safe Rides Transfers if you want to enjoy the beautiful scenery while someone else is behind the wheel!

We were anxious about making it to the airport due to being delayed. Our driver arrived 15 minutes early and was very friendly and professional. We made it with time to spare.

I am a wedding planner from Germany and I booked Safe Rides Transfer to organize a shuttle for the wedding guests on the evening prior to the wedding. Everything was perfect, the cars were an excellent conditions, the drivers and the overall communication (before and during the transfers) was professional and always kind. I would definitely use them again for my clients and happy to recommend them!

Perfect service. Pick up was super on time, the driver was super polite and nice. Genuinely recommend this company.

Safe, timely and well priced luxury ride from the Chania airport to Skafia. Why take the bus when you can ride an air conditioned Mercedes-Benz. HIGHLY recommended. Last minute bookings accommodated also.

The service was excellent, and everything was perfect, from the vehicles to the courteous staff. Thank you so much for everything!!

Excellent professionals. Beautiful vehicles with safety. Always helpful with a smile!

Very good service and great work from the company team, the car came exactly at the time they told us, the driver Mr. Kampanis was an amazing person who told us everything about the city and the questions we asked him, he became the tour guide us for the day and we thank him. They also have very nice tours all over Crete and of course we did one of them the next day. We want to say thank you again to the whole team for these two amazing days and we are keeping your phone for the next time we come to Crete and meet you again with gyros-tzatziki and raki and of course your wonderful Safe ride transfer.
