SAMARIA NATIONAL PARK NOW OFFERS ELECTRONIC TICKETS

One of the top attractions on the island of Crete is a natural monument called Samaria National Park, which is located in the Chania region.

Starting for the first time this year, visitors to Samaria will be able to purchase electronic tickets here in order to access the gorge.

General admission to Samaria Gorge costs 5 euros. For group excursions of more than 10 people, it is four euros per person and in the case of large families, it’s three euros each. However, all children under the age of five, all European Union nationals up to the age of 18, all senior citizens, all wheelchair users, and their companions, all EU students, the unemployed, and researchers are exempt from paying. For group excursions of more than 10 people, it is four euros per person and in the case of large families, it’s three euros each.

In addition to making it easier for visitors to plan ahead, the electronic system also will allow proceeds from admission fees to be channeled directly into the Natural Environment and Climate Change Agency (NECCA), which will use those funds for Samaria National Park’s protection and promotion.
