If you want to follow the tour you should pay attention. We needed 6 hours for the tour and not 3:47 as stated.
First you should wear at least light hiking boots and a pair of long pants. From Sant John s Bay you leave the fixed paths.
Please take enough to drink. In order to use the way to the second monastery, you have to calculate your entry (2.50 Euro as of 10/2019). If you can not climb a bit, you should stop this tour from Sant John's Bay. It goes over scree and cross field, through rain and rubble gutters in which shrubs grow with unpleasant spines. We climbed over 2 fences with ladders attached and at the end of the tour we had to walk over a private lot where we had to knot the fences tied together with wire. We enjoyed the tour despite the adversities. We had them from the travel guide Compass Crete.
