Greek Islands Group Tour

Welcome to vibrant Athens - a youthful city with a rich history.

In the afternoon, meet your fellow travelers and head off into town to explore with a local guide. Spot the Acropolis towering above the city! (If you arrive early, we can arrange a guided tour of it for you). Enjoy the street art and cute cafés on your stroll through town together.

Later, you're invited to dinner at the home of some Athenians! Enjoy your first taste of fresh Greek cuisine and meraki - Greek hospitality - while getting to know the locals and your group. Yamas (cheers)!

Today you leave the main land for your first Greek island, peaceful Paros! Paros used to be known for its bright white marble that was extracted from local quarries. Today, it's a popular holiday destination.

Arrive around midday and take the afternoon to explore charming Naoussa, the hippest town on the island, on your own accord. Enjoy Naoussa's picturesque harbour and boutiques, or head straight to the beach to jump into the clear water. Or will the hotel pool tempt you?

Relax into your island adventure. We recommend you grab a table by the water for dinner and raise a toast to island life!

Pack your sunscreen - you're going on a boat trip you won't forget! Hop on board a traditional kaiki boat and off we go, to discover the crystal clear waters of Paros and its smaller sister islands, Antiparos and Despotiko.

Relax on board while the captain steers you to some of the most beautiful swimming spots you'll ever see. Dive under to see fish, marvel at the rocky coastline and soak up some sun on board while enjoying tasty snacks. Lunch is a barbecue accompanied by local wine. Spend the whole day enjoying the Aegean Sea - this is what island holidays are about!

Feel free to have a lazy morning - you're on vacation! Head to the local beach to catch some sunrays or grab your co-travelers and explore some of the island together.

In the afternoon, meet the group to go to a local winery that has been run by the same family for over 100 years. Take a short tour of the winery and learn about its history. Moraitis grapes grow on 10 hectares of land on Paros, and they say you can taste the island in them. Try for yourselves as you sample some wines, accompanied by island cheeses.

With a taste of Paros in your mouth, catch a ferry to your next island in the evening: stunning Milos awaits!

(Please note that ferry times may change, in which case we would adjust the itinerary accordingly).

Milos is a stunning all-rounder. The island is only 21km (15 miles) long, but offers the perfect combination of authenticity, charm and jaw-dropping beauty.

Today a local guide will take you to explore the dramatic moonscapes of Sarakiniko beach, with its white cliffs and blue water. Dare to jump into the sea? You'll see the cute and colourful fishing huts of Klima, as well as visit an ancient theatre that used to sit 8000 people. You'll find out more about Milos' rich history and the many peoples who influenced the island.

Later, you'll head to pretty Plaka, Milos' capital in the hills. Explore the picturesque alleyways and climb up to the castle ruins where you have a 360 degree view. Either take the group bus back to the hotel, or stay in Plaka to watch the sunset.

Spend the day at leisure on Milos. You may choose to book yourself onto a jaw-dropping boat tour to turquoise waters of Kleftiko and Tsigrado, or would you rather indulge in local delicacies at a taverna?

Fully relaxed, set sail for the arguably most popular island in the world in the late afternoon: Santorini! Here you'll spend your last couple of days enjoying the incredible views over the blue Aegean Sea.

(Please note that ferry times vary and you may arrive in Santorini earlier in the day and have spare time to explore there instead of Milos)

We bet you'll jump out of bed today! You won't want to miss a moment of daylight on the picture-book island of Santorini.

After breakfast, put on some trainers and take a self-guided hike along the coast to see the most beautiful views of the caldera. Walk at your own pace, as you'll probably want to stop for a million photos as the scenery changes from white cliff-side houses to rocks with flowers. You can walk all the way to Oia, the best known town on Santorini with the Instagran-famous blue domes.

Spend your day at leisure snapping photos of the island, and pick your favourite spot to experience Santorini's well-known sunset. Do you prefer to be amongst the crowds by Oia castle, or would you prefer a more peaceful setting in a rooftop bar with a view? We'll be happy to give you our special insiders recommendations for the best sunset spots!

Meet your group for a last hurrah: a goodbye breakfast with an unforgettable view!

Then you have time to check out the local shops and pick up some souvenirs for friends and family, or treat yourself to something cute.

If you're interested in spending more time on Santorini, we'll be happy to provide you with more tips for excursions.

When it's time to head home, you'll do so with a sun kissed glow, a sprinkle of sand in your suitcase and a head full of beautiful new memories. We look forward to taking you on your next adventure!
