Getting to Greece
Greece has a number of different destinations to visit. Athens is its capital city and easy to fly to from most European cities as well as those in the USA. The major islands also each have own airports too such as Mykonos and Santorini. You'll also be able to catch a ferry between the mainland to the other Greek islands.
General Information
Greece is a perfect destination if you are looking for a laid-back atmosphere with excellent food to match.
From the Cyclades where you’ll find the stunning Mykonos and Santorini – ideal for a romantic holiday in the Greek Islands – to the capital of Athens with its titanic architecture and history, Greece has a lot to offer. Perfect for a history buff wanting to brush up on their knowledge of Ancient Greece, the city of Athens remains a treasure trove of original buildings and landmarks dating back to the 5th-century BC.
The famous Acropolis museum is a must visit and we specialise in arranging knowledgeable and private guides to ensure you get the best possible experience.
If you’re hoping to relax and catch some sun then head down to Mykonos. Known for its beautiful beaches and its summer party atmosphere and laid-back vibes, the island of Mykonos has fast become the go-to destination over places like Ibiza. Still a quaint island though, Mykonos town has beautiful tavernas and a melting pot of wonderful restaurants. You’ll find cobbled streets and an abundance of boutiques.
For the perfect Greek honeymoon destination, you’ll find the island of Santorini an ideal choice. With its rugged landscape – a result of a volcanic eruption almost 4000 years ago – the towns of Fira and Oia are set on the cliffs of a large underwater crater known as the caldera which was created when the centre of the island collapsed.
It’s a great idea to pair both Mykonos and Santorini and take the ferry between the two islands. The approach to Santorini is rather special. Most facilities on the islands close in the middle of September so be sure to visit before then. Santorini is also a great hiking destination and the island’s resorts are luxury in both appointment and vision.

What Everyone Does In Greece
A trip to the capital city is a great starting point. The city allows you to experience what true ancient Greece was like back in its hay day. A trip to the famous Acropolis is a must, along with the majestic Parthenon. Visiting the many ancient Greek temples gives you a real feel for how important the Greek Gods were.
Athens used to be a city people passed through on their way to the islands. Now it’s firmly established as a great city in its own right. The Plaka district is probably the coolest part of the city to explore.
What Some People Do In Greece
Why visit only one island? There are hundreds you can visit, with each possessing its own unique charm and character. Mykonos is probably the most famous, with its beautiful beaches, classical restaurants and buzzing nightlife.
Also a popular destination for the LGBT community, the locals are very welcoming. Santorini is definitely worth a visit, along with Skopelos which was where the film ‘Mamma Mia’ was set. A great way to see as many of the islands as possible is by sailing. You can do this by joining a group or if you already have a group we can arrange a boat for you. Sail along the coastline and enjoy the gorgeous Mediterranean sea.
What No One Else Does In Greece
Tucked away and almost untouched, the South West area of Greece is the perfect place to visit if you are looking to extend your trip. This area may not be as popular as other areas of Greece but this makes it perfect if you are looking for an authentic Greek experience. The tiny village of Koita, which is located right in the South is the perfect place to visit if you are looking for a picturesque seaside escape.
For a more urban experience you could visit the historic city of Thessaloniki. It’s considered to be Greece’s cultural capital. You’ll find many Byzantine ruins to explore.
