Grillo's Stables
About
Grillo's Stables serves Crete as a horseback riding operator, working from Xrania, Georgioupoli 730 07, Greece. That address places the stables in the north-west of the island, within reach of Chania, Rethymno and Heraklion.
Across 184 reviews the operation holds a 4.9 out of 5 average, a score that points to riders returning satisfied. The business runs as a horseback riding operator, taking visitors out on horseback rather than offering lessons indoors, and the trails lead through the countryside around Georgioupoli. Chania and Rethymno lie within easy driving distance for anyone staying on that side of Crete.
Rides are arranged directly with the stables, and the countryside setting means the routes follow the terrain around the village.
Crete's visitor season runs roughly from May to October, with August the busiest month for ferries and beaches, so spring and autumn rides come with quieter roads. Menus on the island lean on horiatiki salad, grilled octopus and thyme honey from the hills, which suits a meal after a morning in the saddle. Ferries and high-speed catamarans link Crete to Piraeus, Rafina and the other islands, though winter services thin out considerably.
