Good
Other reviews were quite negative, so my expectations were low. However, I thought it was a very interesting site. It’s hard to imagine what challenges the early 20th century archaeologists faced.

It is a magnificent monument of the beginning of European civilization, set in a beautiful location. Minoans Culture is so interesting because of its surprising maturity and originality.

It was great to know we had secured tickets for the date & time we needed. We only had 1 day in Heraklion. We arrived a little earlier than the ticket time but were allowed to enter.
