About this trip
This 15-day trip covers mainland Greece's ancient heart and two of its best-known islands, mixing private guided visits to major archaeological sites with slower island time.
You start in Athens with a private tour of the Acropolis and Parthenon, then move through Delphi, Olympia and the clifftop monasteries of Meteora, taking in a scenic cog railway journey along the way. From there it's on to Mykonos and Santorini for beach days, local food and a BBQ cruise out to Delos and the Caldera.
It's built as an easy-paced trip suited to history enthusiasts and island lovers alike, with private guiding at the key sites so you get context without rushing.
