Day by Day Itinerary
Athens
Welcome to the Greek capital. Upon your arrival to Athens Airport, our driver will transfer you to your hotel in the city center for a two-night stay. Take time to get settled and enjoy the rest of the day exploring at your leisure.
You’ll find plenty of enticing cafes for unwinding with a glass of wine or getting re-energized with strong Greek coffee while soaking up daily life in the city. Or perhaps take a stroll through the Plaka. The history of this neighborhood dates back at least 3,500 years as one of the most ancient settlements in Europe, located under the Acropolis.
Athens
Today you’ll discover the Acropolis, the heart of ancient Athens, on a private guided tour. This UNESCO-listed site is still the hub of the city and serves as a daily reminder of Greek heritage. The Parthenon which tops Acropolis Hill is the crown jewel. Marvel at its monuments which date back to the 5th-century BC and form the greatest artistic and architectural complex given by Greek Antiquity to the world.
Your expert guide will point out other iconic landmarks, like the temple of Athena Nike, the Erechtheon and the Propylaea, while revealing the stories behind them.
Mykonos
This morning it’s time to journey to some of the most enchanting Greek islands. You’ll be transferred by catamaran to Mykonos, a famously beautiful island filled with gorgeous beaches that are edged by dazzling turquoise waters. Mykonos Town is renowned for its fine dining restaurants, high-end shops, art galleries and lively nightlife.
Enjoy the afternoon taking it all in and perhaps capturing photos of the historic windmills that overlook the seafront of the center of Chora. You’ll understand why it’s often referred to as ‘Little Venice’ with its colorful two-story Venetia-style buildings. This is also an ideal spot to stick around for a magical sunset.
Mykonos
Enjoy a private guided tour where many of Mykonos island’s hidden treasures and popular sights will be revealed.
While there are countless beautiful beaches, the very best sit along the southern coast protected from the winds. We’ll bring you to one of the favorites, Psarou, with its brilliant aquamarine waters and golden sands providing some of the most magnificent scenery on the island. Witness rich historic sites as well, from the famous windmills to the most most photographed church in the Cyclades, the Church of Panagia Paraportiani.
Santorini
We’ll transfer you to Santorini for a 3-night stay, where your first impression will make you feel as if you’ve landed in a fantasy with the dramatic caldera looming over the port. From here our driver will bring you to your hotel in Oia, one of the most picturesque villages on the island.
The image of its whitewashed cave homes spilling down the cliffs is something you’ve probably seen splashed across the Internet and on countless postcards featuring the best of the Greek isles. Take the afternoon to explore its enticing streets and then cap off the day with a legendary sunset over the caldera.
Santorini
One of the not-to-be-missed experiences on Santorini is a cruise alongside the caldera cliffs. Hop into a luxurious catamaran, following the coast while gazing out at the famous Red Beach, sea caves and rock formations.
If you’re up for a refreshing swim, leap into the sparkling waters of the Aegean from a secluded private beach and then soak up the sun on board while viewing the impressive volcanic landscape. You’ll get to relax with a healing mud bath in the hot springs, visit a private bay on nearby Palea Kammeni Island and enjoy delicious Greek foods, including Greek salad and traditional appetizers with unlimited wine too.
Santorini
Today is a day you will never forget as you embark on a photo shoot with a professional photographer and make up artist. Enjoy photos being taken in some beautiful locally produced designer dresses as our photographer shoots against some spectacular backdrops and of course those unforgettable caldera views.
Spend the rest of your day at leisure taking in the last day in Santorini with either a gorgeous sunset or time in your stunning turquoise pool.
Crete
Last but certainly not least, you’ll cruise by catamaran to the northwest coast of Crete, the final island on your itinerary.
Check into your hotel in Chania and relax or head out and enjoy what the city has to offer. It boasts a picturesque 14th-century Venetian harbour and waterfront restaurants serving delicious local fare – a pleasant stroll along the seawall will bring you to a lighthouse and one of the best views of the old port. The maze of narrow cobbled streets in the old town are filled with unique shops that sell local works of art, ceramics, clothing and more.
Crete
Enjoy a day at Balos Beach, one of the most photographed, and most stunning, in all of Crete. There are stretches of pristine white and even pink-hued sands, all framed by brilliant turquoise waters. Its wild and exotic beauty has even drawn the likes of VIPs like Prince Charles and Princess Diana who once famously visited on their private yacht.
As the area is protected from the wind, the water here is calm and ideal for swimming. In between those refreshing dips, relax while keeping an eye out for Mediterranean seals before returning to your hotel in Chania.
Departure
Your incredible Greek adventure has come to an end. Our driver will meet you at your Chania hotel for the private transfer to Chania airport and your flight out. Many of our guests have found it very difficult to say goodbye to this remarkable region of the world. If you find yourself feeling the same, our travel experts will be happy to help you continue your journey to other exciting destinations in Greece or beyond.
