Day-by-Day Itinerary
A team member meets you in Athens and transfers you privately to Piraeus port to board your ferry to Mykonos. Upon arrival, you are welcomed, transferred to your hotel, and introduced to the island's cosmopolitan atmosphere. The afternoon and evening are free to wander the narrow cobbled streets, visit beach clubs, and discover Mykonos Town's dining and nightlife scene.
A fully free day to experience Mykonos at your own pace, from sunbathing on the island's most popular beaches to strolling through the boutique-lined alleys of the town center. An optional boat trip to the ancient island of Delos — birthplace of Apollo and Artemis and a UNESCO World Heritage Site — is available for those interested in archaeology. In the evening, fresh seafood and sunset views over Little Venice complete the day.
Private transfer takes you to the Mykonos port to board the ferry to Santorini. A team member welcomes you on arrival, transfers you to your hotel, and provides an orientation to the island. The rest of the day is free to begin exploring the whitewashed streets, unique architecture, and remarkable volcanic landscapes of this singular destination.
A 6-hour private guided tour covers the northern village of Oia, the traditional inland settlement of Megalochori, and a wine tasting at a celebrated family-owned winery. The afternoon includes stops at Red Beach and the black-sand Perivolos Beach, followed by a visit to the Monastery of Prophet Elias at the island's summit for sweeping panoramic views and samples of monk-made local products.
After a final breakfast on Santorini, a private transfer brings you to the port in the early afternoon to board the ferry back to Athens. A representative meets you upon arrival at Piraeus port late in the evening and drives you to your Athens hotel, completing the circuit.
