Say opa! to a Greek adventure which kicks off in Athens and explores two glittering island gems in the Aegean. Discover the treasures of an ancient world before spending a glorious week getting lost in the labyrinthine lanes of Santorini and Mykonos. You’ll combine your love for history with laid-back island life, visiting secret coves, seaside cafes and rambling ruins built to honour gods and goddesses. These remain as a testament to the lynchpin role ancient Greece once played in shaping western civilisation as we know it today.

Admire the Monumental Structures of Athens

First, let it sink in - you’re standing in what was once the cradle of Western civilisation. Then lace on your walking shoes and get out there with your Local Specialist to discover where the likes of Plato, Socrates and Aristotle offered their wisdom centuries ago. From the mighty Parthenon to the Temple of Zeus, we won’t miss any of the greatest ancient wonders.

Fall in Love With Crisp White Houses of Mykonos

Kick off your shoes and let down your hair as you touch down on the island playground of Mykonos. Wander through the cobbled lanes and white-washed houses, or take a dip in the sparkling water. Mykonos is known for its nightlife and you’ll need no excuse to stay out late and do as the locals do.

A view of Santorini, Greece

Visit Akrotiri in Santorini

Known as the ‘Greek Pompeii’, Akrotiri is a wonderfully-preserved archaeological site where you can get a glimpse of life on the island around 1450 BC. Like in Pompeii, a volcano erupted, and layers of ash ended up preserving the settlements nearby. Today, the covered site’s panelled pathways take you on a journey between small homes, clay buildings, and artefacts which give a glimpse into what was like for the ancient Minoan civilization.

Discover the Ancient Wonders of Mykonos

Mykonos isn't only an island playground with glittering seas and lavish beach bars... it's also the legendary birthplace of the god Apollo and his twin sister Artemis. We took a boat ride to Delos to see the ancient remains of the Temple of Apollo and the sanctuary of Artemis. It's one of the most important archaeological sites in Greece and you can also marvel at the old city, and take a stroll down the famous Lion Street.

Explore the glorious historical city of Athens

Athens, my favourite place in Greece, is packed with history at every turn. Lace up your walking shoes and dive into the city’s rich artistry, stunning architecture, and archaeological treasures. From the magnificent Acropolis with views of the Temple of Zeus and Hadrian's Arch, to the Parthenon, dedicated to the goddess Athena. What I love most about Athens is its energy. It's raw and beautiful, chaotic yet welcoming.

Gyros

Everyone goes gaga for gyros in Greece. These delicious wrap sandwiches (pronounced yee-ros) are a street food favourite, made with meat cooked on a rotating rotisserie and served in a soft pita wrap with fresh tomato, onion and tzatziki sauce. We’ll let you in on all the best girádika (restaurants that serve gyros) to try on your Greece holiday.

Ellinikos (Greek Coffee)

Do as the locals do and kickstart your day with a hot cup of ellinikos. The Greeks have a beloved daily coffee ritual that’s all about relaxing with a brew in hand. Whether you catch up with friends or simply watch the world go by, a Greek coffee experience is not to be missed.

Amygdalota

These lovely Greek cookies are crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside… And packed with a delicious orange and almond flavour. Amygdalota are traditionally served after weddings and baptisms to symbolise new beginnings. You can try amygdalota in bakeries across Greece, but be warned - they’re insanely addictive.

When is best to visit Greece

Greece is particularly irresistible during the warmer months of summer, autumn and spring, with long sunny beach days and island hopping up for grabs.

Best Time for a Greece Cruise

Summer is the classic season to head off on a Greek islands holiday, but if you can’t handle the searing heat, try September and October with milder weather and superb Aegean cruises.

Best Time to Explore Greece’s Ancient Ruins

The best time for Greece sightseeing is the shoulder seasons of March to May and September to November, when crowds are thinner and the weather is perfect for exploring ancient treasures.

Best Time to Explore the Greek Countryside

We love to go wandering the countryside around April and May, when pretty wildflowers bloom and the days are sunny and clear.

Packing tips for Greece

Boat Shoes

If you’re taking to the sea on a Greek island cruise, remember to pack a pair of boat shoes and your favourite swimsuit.

Long, Breathable Clothes

This Mediterranean country is sweltering during the summer and warm practically all year round. It’s best to throw on some long light clothing when you visit Greece.

Sun Protection

Prep for plenty of sun-drenched days on your Greece tour with extra bottles of SPF50+ sunscreen, good sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat.

Pack for Sustainable Travel

Consider your environmental impact when you next take a trip and go single-use-plastic-free by packing a reusable water bottle, a steel straw, your own shopping bags and refillable toiletry bottles.

How to Travel Responsibly in Greece

Help Care For the Beaches

You can help keep Greece's beaches beautiful by using reef-safe sunscreens, leaving shells and any wildlife where you spot them, and never leaving any litter behind.

Avoid Buying Coral Products

If you're looking for souvenirs, avoid buying natural sponges or coral products in Greece. When they're collected irresponsibly it has a destructive impact on the marine ecosystems of the region.

Say No to Plastic

Take care of the environment in Greece by saying no to plastic packaging and bringing your own reusable bottles and bags when you visit Greece.
