This package brings you a collection of alternative destinations to show a different side of Greece than the one most visitors tend to experience. With Athens as a starting point, you will have the chance to familiarize yourself with the most prominent monuments of the ancient Greek civilization as well as the museum of Acropolis, via a carefully planned sightseeing tour.

You begin your Aegean adventure in Milos, a volcanic island that is home to surreal landscape, like the famous Sarakiniko beach. Time for a sense of serenity to overcome you as you move on to Folegandros, a hidden gem on the edge of Cyclades. Traditional Cycladic architecture in a relaxing environment as well as opportunities for a hike to remote churches and isolated beaches. Finally, to spruce things up, comes Santorini, arguably the most well-known destination of your trip. Majestic in every way, Santorini combines the wild natural beauty that has been produced by the -now submerged- volcano of Thira, with all the amenities of the modern world. Taste the delicious local wines and take a sailing tour around the island to experience the island at its finest.

Don't miss out on the chance to create memories that you will cherish forever...

Day 1 – Arrival in Athens
On arrival you will meet with our assistant at the airport and then transferred to your selected hotel by your driver. During your first day in Greece make sure to strike a balance between getting some rest and exploring the contemporary side of the city. If you are looking to get some shopping done early, Ermou str is where you want to be.
Overnight: Athens
Meals: -
Day 2 – Athens Half Day Sightseeing Tour
Today you will participate in what has come to be known as a tradition for any first-time visitor; the Athens morning half day sightseeing tour. This carefully planned itinerary includes visits to some of the most prominent sites covering the history of Greece throughout the centuries. The Temple of Olympian Zeus, Hadrian’s Arch, the Academy of Athens and the Greek Parliament are just some of the stops along the way. Of course, no tour of Athens is complete without climbing up to the Acropolis and visiting the new Acropolis Museum, which is where your succinct, yet fulfilling Athenian experience will conclude!
Overnight: Athens
Meals: Breakfast
Day 3 – Arrival in Milos
In the morning, you have a transfer from your hotel to the port to hop on the ferry to Milos and set on a seafaring adventure in the Aegean. Once you reach Milos, our local collaborator will escort you to your hotel and after you’ve taken a load off you will be ready to start exploring on your own pace! Perhaps take a walk down the waterfront in the main town of Adamas and find a fish tavern for some local delicacies!
Overnight: Milos
Meals: Breakfast
Day 4 – Experience Milos
Although Milos has gained a lot of popularity over the past few years, the island still keeps a tight grasp on the traditions and customs that have shaped its identity. One of the more unique elements on the island is Syrmata, a series of residences on the village of Klima which have been carved into the rock. Usually featuring colorful balconies, Syrmata give a splash of vivacity to the north coast of the island. Another place that you shouldn’t miss out on, is the beach of Sarakiniko. The soft, white, volcanic rocks that cover the shore have been smoothed out by the waves and the wind to create a bizarre, almost surreal and yet strangely captivating landscape.
Overnight: Milos
Meals: Breakfast
Day 5 – Arrival in Folegandros
Bid farewell to Milos and catch your transfer from your hotel to the port to board the ferry to Folegandros. Our local collaborator will be waiting for you in the port of Karavostasi in order to take you to your hotel. We recommend you spend the remainder of the day exploring Chora’s narrow, cobblestoned alleys full of quaint shops.
Overnight: Folegandros
Meals: Breakfast
Day 6 – Relax in Folegandros
Folegandros is a true hidden gem of the Aegean Sea that offers the chance to out your finger on the pulse of Cycladic living. Even in Chora, everything seems to move slower than usual as you walk under wooden balconies decorated with bougainvillea and hibiscus, whose scent fills the air. The village of Ano Meria is even more traditional as well as a great place to try local produce, while in Kastro you can visit a Venetian Fortress dating back to the early 13th century. Hiking trails around the island lead to small churches and secluded beaches for visitors looking to add a bit of adventure to their vacation.
Overnight: Folegandros
Meals: Breakfast
Day 7 – Arrival in Santorini
Transfer from your hotel to Karavostasi (port of Folegandros) to reach Santorini, your last islandic destination on this trip. As Santorini comes into view, take a good look at the majestic sight of Fira, a whole Town spilling down the slope of a cliff into the Aegean. On arrival you will be transferred to your hotel by our local collaborator. In the afternoon, explore the village or town your hotel is located in and try some local delicacies like fava and tomatokeftedes!
Overnight: Santorini
Meals: Breakfast
Day 8 – Explore Santorini
One day free to explore Santorini, and choosing between the multitudes of things to do can be a headache. Between the Hot Springs, the uniquely colored volcanic beaches on the south coast, the pre-historic settlement of Akrotiri, the picturesque Oia & Imerovigli and the wine Estates spread around the island, there are so many options that can fill up your day. Perhaps it would be smarter to combine a number of those sites by joining a catamaran sailing tour around the island if you love the sea!
Overnight: Santorini
Meals: Breakfast
Day 9 – Return to Athens
After breakfast, you have a transfer from your hotel to the port to return to Athens. Upon arrival you will meet our assistant at the port and be driven to your hotel. Since it is your last night in Greece, make sure to pick up some souvenirs for the friends back home that weren’t fortunate enough to join you on this idyllic journey!
Overnight: Athens
