Your detailed itinerary

DAY 1 | ATHENS

Arrival in Athens.

Welcome and transfer to the hotel.

Free day to explore the city at your own pace.

Athens, the capital of Greece, is a city rich in history and culture, regarded as the cradle of Western civilisation. It is famous for its iconic ancient monuments such as the Acropolis, the Parthenon and the Temple of Zeus. Athens harmoniously combines tradition and modernity, with lively neighbourhoods, a vibrant nightlife, and museums that bear witness to its glorious past.

Overnight at the hotel.

Please note: for 11-day / 10-night stays, there is an additional night in Athens.

DAY 2 | ATHENS - SANTORINI

Breakfast at the hotel.

Transfer from the hotel to Athens port and ferry crossing to Santorini, then transfer to the hotel in Santorini.

Santorini is one of the most beautiful islands in the Cyclades, in the Aegean Sea. It was devastated by a volcanic eruption in the 16th century BC, which permanently shaped its dramatic landscape. The white, cube-shaped houses of its two main towns, Fira and Oia, cling to cliffs overlooking an underwater caldera. They look out over the sea, the small islands to the west, and beaches made up of black, red and white volcanic pebbles.

Overnight at the hotel.

DAY 3 | SANTORINI

Breakfast at the hotel. Meals and day at leisure.

Santorini, shaped like a crescent and the precious jewel of the Aegean Sea, is in fact a group of islands made up of Thíra, Thirassiá, Asproníssi, Palea and Nea Kaméni in the southernmost part of the Cyclades.

Did you know that the entire Santorini island complex is still an active volcano (the same as Méthana, Mílos and Nísiros) and is probably the only volcano in the world whose crater is in the sea? It is well worth exploring, especially if you are looking for a romantic getaway in Greece, as there are not many places in the world where you can enjoy incredibly clear waters while perched on the edge of a vast active volcano in the middle of the sea!

DAY 4 | SANTORINI - SIFNOS

Breakfast at the hotel.

Transfer from the hotel to Santorini’s port and ferry crossing to Sifnos, then transfer to the hotel in Sifnos.

Sifnos is one of the most authentic islands in the Cyclades, offering a variety of landscapes, beautiful beaches and renowned gastronomy. It is a wonderful stop to discover small traditional villages, ancient monasteries and picturesque hiking trails.

Overnight at the hotel.

DAYS 5 & 6 | SIFNOS

Breakfast at the hotel.

Another full day at leisure to explore the city at your own pace.

Sifnos is an ideal destination for those seeking a peaceful, picture-perfect setting. Highlights of Sifnos include traditional villages such as Apollonia and Kastro, with their narrow lanes and whitewashed houses that are so typical of the Greek islands. The island is also renowned for its beautiful beaches, including Platis Gialos and Vathy, which are perfect for swimming and relaxing. Do not miss the Profitis Ilias Monastery, perched on a hill and offering breathtaking views over the island. Finally, the local cuisine – especially vegetable-based dishes, chickpea specialities and sweet treats such as loukoumades – is truly delicious.

Overnight at the hotel.

Please note: for 11-day / 10-night stays, there is an additional night in Sifnos.

DAY 7 | SIFNOS – ATHENS

Breakfast at the hotel.

Transfer from the hotel to Sifnos port and ferry crossing to Athens, then transfer to the hotel in Athens.
