NEWS FROM C.I.C (Group Rethymno)
The C.I.C group from Rethymno starts a new monthly activity to show you something more of Crete and to enable you to visit places that you might not know.
This is a coach excursion program designed by Albert van Elst.
He works in the Tourist industry here on Crete for 19 years, 8 of them as a guide on the Coach and 11 years in a Tourist office in Rethymno on the beach road.
The program is on every last Sunday of the Month and the cost will be kept as low as possible. Lunches, entrances and gifts to the guide are not included in the price.
Minimum participation is 20 persons and overflow of cash will go to Charity and on each of the Coffee mornings of the community in the La Bamba bar of Rethymno all members can give their suggestions and by vote will be decided which charity will be the lucky one of that month. Please read the program for January and have also a preview on the February and March planning
