Itinerary

UK – Santorini (3 Nights): First, we will fly you for your chosen UK airport to Santorini. Famous for its traditional white-washed villages that cling to the high clifftops, this volcanic island is instantly recognisable from many postcards of the blue-domed churches backed by brilliant blue skies.

With three days here you will have the perfect amount of time to enjoy the busy towns, archaeological sites, and the exquisite black beaches. Santorini was shaped by a devastating volcano in the 16th Century BC which left a rugged landscape and dramatic volcanic crater known as a Caldera, peeking out of the sea and is what makes Santorini so unique, so take in these famous sights and enjoy the Caldera’s hot spring. The main towns of Fira, Firostefani, Imerovigli and Oia, are spread along the cliff overlooking the caldera and walking between the towns, or even part of it, makes for a perfect day. There are countless dramatic viewpoints, enchanting lanes, and spellbinding stairwells. Also, make sure you head to Oia to take in the famous sunset – something not to be missed.

Santorini – Mykonos (4 Nights): After a relaxing stay on Santorini, we will take you by ferry over to the nearby island of Mykonos. Known as one of the most stylish, cosmopolitan and upmarket islands in Greece, with its boutique hotels, designer shops and A-list visitors.

The gentle landscape is a blend of low, rocky hills and plenty of beaches. The south of the island has popular golden beaches sheltered from the wind whereas, the north is much quieter and with the reliable breeze, ideal for water sports. Mykonos Town is home to the iconic picturesque windmills as well as a labyrinth of streets and a colourful harbour. The island is known for its lively night scene, and as well as chic bars and excellent restaurants, you can party away on the legendary Paradise and Super Paradise Beaches until the sun comes up!

Mykonos - UK: When your holiday comes to an end, we will fly you back home to the UK.
