The gorge is over 16 kilometers long and is surrounded by rocky cliffs, flowing rivers, and lush vegetation, making it an incredible backdrop for photography. 2.) Unique Landscape: The landscape of Samaria Gorge is unique and unlike any other in Crete. The rock formations, the steep cliffs, and the narrow passage create an otherworldly environment that is perfect for photography. 3.)

Did an engagement photo shoot with Sofia and she was so good! We haven’t done photo shoots before and she directed us where to go for the best light and how to pose and the photos turned out great! 10/10
