Greek Island Hopper

Mykonos

We start our Greek adventure on the luxurious and idyllic island of Mykonos where we will stay for 3 nights. This is amongst the top tourist destinations in the World and for good reason. You’ll have the opportunity to rub shoulders with the rich and famous as we explore the flower-filled lanes and boutique shops and cafes of this most cosmopolitan and trendy of the Greek islands and enjoy the vibrant nightlife. During our time on Mykonos we will stay at a beautiful beach front hotel near Platis Gialos Beach and will enjoy a welcome drink at the premiere Blue Myth restaurant with its amazing sea views. This will also be where we enjoy a relaxing breakfast to start each day! When we arrive at our hotel you can relax and then join our tour leader for an orientation walk before we all have a welcome dinner at the traditional Marco Polo Tavern located in the heart of Mykonos town which serves delicious, authentic Greek cuisine. Whilst on Mykonos we’ll enjoy leisurely strolls amongst the windmills in Little Venice for THAT photo, check out the white-washed shop fronts of the Old Town and have the chance to check out the various beachfront cocktail bars to decide which ones we want to visit in the evening. After that the rest is up to you as you soak in the vibes of one of the coolest destinations on the planet! There will also be an option to do a half day-trip to the tiny island of Delos with its ancient sun-bleached ruins.

Paros

Next we transfer to Paros for 2 nights where we will stay in a comfortable 3* hotel located in Parikia town. Situated in the very heart of the Cyclades group, Paros is a gem and the very archetype of Greek island life with a host of features on offer to visitors with a cosmopolitan atmosphere, vibrant nightlife, ancient monuments, monasteries, churches and last but not least, wonderful sandy beaches.  It has traditional towns, Parikia and Naousa, both with elegant restaurants, quaint taverns, lively bars and cafés, all next to working fishing posts. Paros is also a ‘beach bum’s’ haven with a multitude of large beaches suitable for relaxing, partying and even windsurfing. You’re free to get into the sun and sea vibes. On day 5 we will gather for a dinner at the Ephesus restaurant located on Livadia Beach. There will be an option to do a half-day bus tour to Naoussa town and Kolymbithres beach for lunch and swimming.

Santorini

Best till last? We’ll let you decide as we spend our last couple of nights in the Iconic Greek island of Santorini – the star of the show. Santorini, also known as Thera, located in the southern Aegean Sea and is essentially what remains of an enormous, 16th century BC volcanic explosion that destroyed the original early settlements on what was formerly a single island and leading to the creation of the current geological caldera. It is a place famous for its breathtaking views and its stunning sunsets. It has the five villages of Fira, Oia, Imerovigli, Firostefani and Akrotiri which sits atop the caldera and offers spectacular views into the crater that was created by the ancient eruption. What remains is an incredible panorama and a magical setting for hikes, infinity pools, luxury hotels, clifftop wineries, and dreamy sunset dinners. We will stay in 4 star hotel situated 10 min walking from Santorini Capital town of Fira. When we arrive we can relax or join our trip leader on a orientation Walk around Fira and take in some of the best views on the island. On day 6 we will have a group dinner at Ellinikon Restaurant in Fira. There will be an option to do a full-day volcano tour with traditional “Kaiki” and bus tour for the sunset.
