About this trip

Eleven days that take you from the ancient sites of the Greek mainland to the islands everyone pictures when they think of Greece. You'll move between Athens, Olympia, Delphi and the monasteries of Meteora before flying out to Mykonos and Santorini.

It's a full itinerary — history-heavy on the mainland, then a shift into island time with whitewashed villages and sea views. Hotels are 4-star throughout and you get your own private room.

Partially guided, so some days come with a guide walking you through the ruins and others are yours to explore or just sit with a drink and watch the water.

What you'll do

  • Walk the ancient sites of Athens
  • See the ruins of Olympia, birthplace of the Olympic Games
  • Visit the archaeological site of Delphi
  • Explore the clifftop monasteries of Meteora
  • Spend time in Mykonos town
  • Watch the sunset over the caldera in Santorini
Good to know
  • Covers a lot of ground in 11 days across both mainland and islands
  • Mix of guided site visits and free time to explore on your own
  • 4-star hotels with private rooms throughout
What travellers actually say

Worth it if you want variety, solid hotels, and knowledgeable guides. Think twice if you need downtime or prefer a slower pace.

  • Guides (Ana, Alex, Elias) consistently knowledgeable, attentive, and eager to adapt to group needs.
  • Itinerary covers genuine breadth: Athens, Delphi, Mykonos, Santorini with well-paced days and included meals.
  • Trip is extremely fast-paced with little free time; involves plenty of walking and early starts.
  • Santorini beautiful but expect steep climbs, premium pricing, and crowds when cruise ships arrive.
