Overview

Greece: Walking in the Greek Islands

8 days, Athens to Santorini
When someone says, “Let’s go to Greece!” the first images that come to mind are the sparkling blue waters of the Mediterranean, white sugar-cube houses set high into the hills above the sea, and ancient sun-bleached ruins. And while these highlights are worth the trip, this eight-day odyssey will have you exploring the Greece many never see. You’ll start by visiting Tinos, a sleepier island, relatively unknown to the masses that’s renowned for the Church of the Annunciation, a Greek Orthodox pilgrimage site. From there sail to Naxos with its Venetian fortified mansions, cobbled alleys, and hilltop castle. From catamarans to kayaks and picturesque Byzantine churches to Citron distilleries, you’ll spend time learning more about the history of Ancient Greece and the melding of cultures through time.
