Athens Acropolis, Parthenon & Acropolis Museum Guided Tour: Explore the birthplace of Western civilisation with a licensed expert guide. Ascend the sacred hill to the luminous Parthenon, discover the Propylaea, the Temple of Athena Nike, and the Erechtheion, before descending into the extraordinary Acropolis Museum — home to the original Caryatids and the great Parthenon frieze. Skip-the-line entry included.
Mykonos Town Walking Tour — Windmills, Little Venice & Hidden Alleys: Wander the labyrinthine whitewashed lanes of Mykonos Town with a local guide. Discover the iconic Kato Milli windmills perched above the sea, the romantic 18th-century waterfront of Little Venice, the extraordinary Paraportiani Church, and the hidden squares and charming boutique-lined alleys of Chora that most visitors never find.
Paros Walking Tour — Old Town, Venetian Castle & Church of a Hundred Doors: Explore the charming capital of Paros on a guided walk through the narrow marble-paved streets of Parikia. Visit the magnificent Panagia Ekatontapiliani — one of the oldest and most revered Byzantine churches in Greece — climb to the ruins of the hilltop Venetian castle built from ancient marble temple blocks, and wander through the flower-draped lanes of one of the Cyclades’ most beautiful and unhurried towns.
Milos Full-Day Sailboat Cruise — Kleftiko, Sykia Cave, Polyaigos & Secret Beaches: Set sail from Adamas on the island tour that defines Milos. Cruise the island’s wild western and southern coastlines to the legendary Kleftiko — a dramatic labyrinth of white sea caves, archways, and turquoise water once used as a pirate hideout, accessible only by boat. Swim through the sea caves of Sykia, whose collapsed roof floods the cavern with extraordinary light, and anchor in the impossibly blue waters of uninhabited Polyaigos. A freshly prepared Greek lunch and open bar are served on deck throughout the day.
Ios: Speedboat Cruise to Seven Hidden Beaches: Board a speedboat from Mylopotas and spend a full morning discovering the beaches of Ios that most visitors never reach. Cruise along the island’s wild coastline to secluded coves only accessible by sea — Kolitsani, Sapounochoma, Klima, Pikri Nero, Tripiti, and the famous Manganari Beach with its five bays of shallow turquoise water where scenes from the film The Big Blue were shot. Snorkel gear is included and swimming stops are scattered throughout.
Santorini Full-Day Island Tour — Akrotiri, Villages, Winery & Sunset in Oia: Discover Santorini from end to end on a guided island tour.

Day 1-3 Athens
Arrive in Athens on Day 1 and settle into your hotel in the historic heart of the city. On Day 2, your licensed guide leads you up to the sacred Acropolis — past the Theatre of Dionysus, through the monumental Propylaea, and to the luminous Parthenon — before descending into the world-class Acropolis Museum. Spend your evening wandering the atmospheric Plaka district, sampling meze and chilled Assyrtiko in the shadow of one of the world’s great ancient citadels.

Day 3-5 Mykonos
A high-speed ferry from Piraeus delivers you to Mykonos — the most glamorous and instantly recognisable of all the Cyclades. On Day 4, your local guide walks you through the iconic lanes of Chora, past the legendary windmills and the romantic waterfront of Little Venice. Additionally, set sail from the Old Port to the sacred island of Delos on a guided archaeological boat trip — exploring one of the most important ancient sites in the entire Greek world. Evenings in Mykonos are entirely its own: legendary dining, buzzing bars, and some of the best people-watching in Europe.
Hotel: Semeli Hotel Mykonos or similar.
Day 5-6 Paros
A short ferry crossing brings you to Paros — a perfectly balanced island of marble villages, turquoise coves, and genuine unhurried Cycladic charm. Your guide walks you through ancient Parikia — past the spectacular Church of a Hundred Doors, up to the Venetian castle with its sweeping views, and through the flower-draped alleys of the old town. With just one night, Paros is a perfect pause between the energy of Mykonos and the volcanic drama that lies ahead.
Hotel: Paros Agnanti or similar.
Day 6-8 Milos
A ferry delivers you to Milos — the most geologically extraordinary island in the Cyclades and, for those who know Greece well, one of its best-kept secrets. On the next day, enjoy an all-day sailboat cruise around the island’s dramatic coastline — through the sea caves of Sykia, into the legendary pirate hideout of Kleftiko, and across to the pristine blue lagoons of uninhabited Polyaigos. An open bar and fresh-cooked lunch on deck complete a day that consistently ranks among travellers’ highlights of the entire trip.
Hotel: Milos Cavo Grosso or similar.
Day 8-10 Ios
A ferry brings you to Ios — a Cycladic gem with a split personality: wild whitewashed Chora rising above the port on one side, and some of the finest beaches in Greece on the other. On Day 9, spend your morning on a speedboat cruise along the island’s inaccessible coastline, swimming in secluded coves, snorkelling in clear blue water, and arriving at the stunning five-bay stretch of Manganari Beach. Spend the afternoon wandering the cobblestone alleys of Chora, visit the hillside church of Panagia Gremiotissa for sunset views across the Aegean, and enjoy an evening of excellent food in the lanes above the port.
