Welcome to Greece's most famous cosmopolitan islands, a whitewashed paradise in the heart of the Cyclades. The crescent-shaped Santorini Island is its most precious gem. Crete is the largest island in Greece, where you can admire the remnants of brilliant civilizations, explore glorious beaches, impressive mountain escapes, fertile valleys and steep gorges, and become part of the island’s rich gastronomic culture.
TOUR HIGHLIGHTS
Mykonos: set out on a trip to discover the beauties of the island, particularly its sun-kissed beaches.
Chora: It is one of the best examples of Cycladic architecture. Stroll around its narrow marble streets and admire whitewashed houses with colourful doors and window frames, bougainvillaea trees in red bloom and hidden churches.
Santorini: formed by the eruption of the volcano 1600 BC. The sight is the most breathtaking of all Greek islands and perhaps of the world.
Heraklion: the perfect base for exploration, as it is close to two of the most important monuments in Crete: Knossos Palace and Phaistos Palace.
Crete Island: In Crete, you will find the oldest wine-producing area in continuous use on the European continent.

We had an unforgettable time on our recent adventure, seamlessly hopping between breathtaking shores and vibrant towns. Our accommodations were comfortable and well-located, allowing us to dive into local culture easily, though there were a couple of nights where noise from nearby festivities made it hard to sleep. The mix of pristine beaches and charming local eateries created a perfect balance for our family, making every day feel like a new treasure waiting to be discovered.

We loved the chance to hop between beautiful islands, each offering its own unique charm and hidden gems, especially the local cuisine that left us craving more. The only downside was some days felt a bit rushed, leaving us wishing for just a bit more time to soak it all in.

Exploring the stunning islands of Mykonos, Santorini, and Crete was a fantastic way to spend nine days. I stayed in a cozy little hotel in Mykonos that felt like a welcoming home base, and the views of the Aegean were breathtaking. One highlight was venturing to Santorini for sunset at Oia, which was undeniably one of the most beautiful sights I’ve ever seen. However, I found that some of the travel times between islands could be a bit lengthy, which occasionally cut into my exploration. Overall, the treasures of these islands made for an unforgettable experience, and I’m grateful for the memories I built along the way.
