You may be asking yourself, What is there to do in Souda or Chania? In this video, we take you on a walk through the town, stopping off to take a look inside the stunning St Nicholas Church to the famous Chania Town harbour, where we walk all the way to the very famous 16th century Chania Lighthouse, one of the world's oldest lighthouses.

We then make our way around the harbour, occasionally stopping for a beer and some food, before strolling through the Venetian Harbour, taking a look at what it has to offer.

Once suitably refreshed, we start to make our way back to the bus stop, taking a look at some of the shops in the town before getting to Market Square where we take our bus back to the port at Souda.

⭐ About Postcard & A Pint:
Welcome to the official Postcard & A Pint YouTube channel.
Postcard & A Pint was thought up by my partner, Rachel & myself, Wills one day while taking our daily 1 hour exercise during the lockdown of 2020. All of a sudden, we were spending more time together, not working 6 or 7 days a week in the arts industry, and binge watching travel programs, and we were actually really enjoying it, and it made us re-evaluate what was important in life for us. Now back to working 6 or 7 days a week again, with very little time off, our happy time is getting out there on our brief times off together and making short travel videos that we are now sharing with you. It's just a bit of fun, and great for our sanity. Your support is hugely appreciated x

I was going to say what a lovely video, Crete or Greece or wherever the hell it is looks flamin' marvellous. But I just noticed... 6K!!!
I reckon it content just like this that gets you this continual surge of subs.
Cheers to the best travel vloggers from North Wales. Nah, the best in the whole damned British Isles. Totally brilliant. Rach and Wills you have my heartiest congratulations 🎉🍺🍻

[TravelingTramps]

Great to hear all the improvements being made during your opening monologue in Chania, Rachel and Wills! 🤣🤣We enjoyed the city tour and loved seeing the church. The Orthodox churches are so different from most of ours and this was stunning. Beautiful port and it's great to see where John and Cara were engaged! Our films may last forever on YouTube, but will anyone watch? Loved the tour. Thanks for bringing us along.

Hi rach and wills 😊 love all the cats about 😁 beautiful church but it was that stone lighthouse I loved the look of. Never seen one like that and cool to hear how old it is. I would have done the same and found a quiet spot for food 😊 Beautiful views over the water. Looked like you had a nice day.

[IamaDutch-Kiwi]

Aah Greece. Exotic, friendly, warm and oh yes, olives. We love olives. We've been to Crete. We also love the Greek people. Friendly, helpful and generous. What a great promo for Greece. Your boat trips are awesome. Love how you find the pearls to visit and divulge the information. Thanks for this pleasant watch. 👌🇳🇱🙋‍♀🥝

[IamaDutch-Kiwi]

OOOOh you are on the verge of 6K. Just watching now. 👌

Ice cream to beat the heat! Ian approves! 👍🍦
