If this occurs the program may need to be adjusted slightly, and at times it may mean you will spend less or more place in one location than originally planned for.

On arrival, you will be met by your tour assistant and transferred to your hotel. Detailed information will be presented to you about all art and music events taking place in Athens during your stay, also a list of fine restaurants for the best taste of Athens. This first day is an opportunity for a walk in the centre. Stroll into the picturable alleys of Plaka area, enjoy some “Ouzo” along with heavenly taste “mezedes” with the view of Acropolis rise above the city.
The best way to see Athens is a walking tour. You can feel the vibes, explore every sense and meet the locals and taste street food on your way! Start the day by walking to the Acropolis hill where you’ll enjoy Parthenon, the Erectheion and the surrounding monuments. Throughout the duration of this walking tour, you'll visit the Acropolis Museum, the Plaka neighbourhood, Roman Agora, Monastiraki Square, Athens Central Market and many more key sights in Athens.
Today, you'll take a transfer to the port and catch a ferry to the island of Mykonos. The journey will take around four hours and when you arrive, you'll be met and whisked off to your hotel. Mykonos is quite a large island with so many things to do! Today, you could hunt down the best beaches or explore the city. You'll be swept off of your feet with the beauty of the whitewashed walls in contrast with its trademark blue.
Today, you have the option to board a luxury catamaran for an unforgettable sailing tour from Mykonos. Sail to the surrounding islands of Delos and Rhenia. You'll be able to swim and snorkel in the fantastic turquoise waters of the Aegean Sea, away from the crowds! You'll also be spoilt with outstanding service and delicious Mediterranean cuisine cooked on-board.
This morning, you'll say goodbye to Mykonos and take a relaxed boat ride to Santorini. The trip should take around 5-6 hours or 2.5 hours by high-speed ferry. It's entirely up to you how you wish to get to Santorini but the long journey is incredibly scenic and relaxing. When you finally arrive, you can relax at the hotel or take a leisurely stroll to stretch your legs and explore this beautiful island.
Make the most out of your time in Santorini with this relaxing and tranquil sunset sail on a catamaran. Swim and snorkel in the blue sea and indulge in a delicious barbecue dinner prepared onboard with grilled seafood. The sun begins to set and casts an orange luminescence along the horizon. The light doesn’t drift but sinks leaving a trail of colour in its wake before the night pulls its shade over the sky and you return to shore.
Joining this tour you will discover the most important archaeological site of Santorini, Akrotiri which is thought to be the Atlantis we have been looking for. You'll learn about the wine heritage at the Wine Museum of Koutsoyanopoulos Winery. You'll stop at the highest spot of the island and the Monastery of Prophet Elias and enjoy your lunch by the sea. The tour concludes with the village of Oia to enjoy the magnificent sunset!
After breakfast, you'll transfer to Santorini airport for your flight to Athens to end your trip to the Greek Islands.
