Mention code 6602481 | | Intrepid Travel | | | | Day | Destination | Description | | Day 1 | Athens | Explore the famed Cyclades, some of the most famous of Greece's thousands of islands and islets. The starting point for this Greek odyssey is Athens, capital of ancient and modern Greece. Visit the iconic Parthenon, kick back over a glass of ouzo or sit in shady Syntagma Square before catching a ferry on the sparkling Aegean Sea. | | Days 2-3 | Tinos | Scenic Tinos in the Aegean Sea is made for walking. Discover abandoned windmills, ancient ruins and charming villages on the network of stone-paved tracks that criss-cross the island. Cool off with a dip at one of the many inviting beaches dotted around the coast. | | Days 4-5 | Mykonos | Island-hop in the charming Cyclades, where relief from the white-hot heat of July and August can be found in the form of the meltemi, a refreshing northerly wind that sweeps across the coasts. Follow narrow paths full of flowers past whitewashed houses and churches, to secluded sandy beaches and spend your afternoon soaking up the rays and splashing in clear water. Then visit Mykonos for some of the craziest nightlife in Europe. | | Days 6-8 | Santorini | The journey ends in the southern archipelago of Santorini. Renowned for its spectacular natural beauty, and its iconic white buildings, Santorini is one of Europe's top tourist hotspots. Work up a tan on a beach of black sand, see the ruins of ancient Thira and Akrotiri or hire a scooter to cruise the coastal roads Greek-style. In the evening, rub shoulders with friendly locals in packed pubs and cafes, while waiting to witness the magnificent sunset. |
