What our students said about Chania (Crete)

When I was there, it was very hot, around 36 degrees, but that's not Chania's fault, it has to do with climate change, it was usually around 30 degrees at that time. The advantage was that the water in the sea wasn't too cold and I preferred to stay in the water.

I already knew inner city Chania. Neo Chora district is great fun base. Walked a lot and hired car in weekend to go to Botanical Gardens. Bus was not yet running due to winter schedule.

Feel unable to comment on nightlife, had visited the town before and enjoyed returning although both shops and restaurant owners fail to understand that pestering counter-productive

Hellenic Language School Alexander the Great

My teacher Eleni was wonderful, very personable, taught me everything well, she also speaks great German, the chemistry was right and I even happened to have private lessons because there were few students at the time and we all had different levels. All the other teachers and the teacher Effie are also very nice. The other students too. I felt very comfortable there! The week went by far too quickly. Now I just have to put what I've learnt into practice...
