Greece Islands Highlights: Mykonos, Santorini & Athens - 9-Day

Start & end in Athens 9 days Up to 7

About this trip

Nine days across three of Greece's best-known spots: Athens, Mykonos and Santorini, with island hopping built in rather than a single base.

You start in Athens among the ancient sites, then move on to Mykonos for its beaches and nightlife, with a boat trip over to Delos to see the archaeological remains. The tour ends in Santorini, taking in the caldera views and the sunset at Oia.

It's a mix of guided sightseeing and free time, so there's room to explore at your own pace as well as see the main sights with a group.

What you'll do

  • Explore the ancient monuments of Athens
  • Spend time on Mykonos's beaches and take in its nightlife
  • Take a boat cruise to the archaeological site of Delos
  • Wander the streets of Oia above Santorini's caldera
  • Watch the sunset at Oia
Good to know
  • Island hopping means changing location and travelling by boat between Athens, Mykonos and Santorini
  • A mix of guided activities and independent free time, so it suits both structured sightseeing and doing your own thing
What travellers actually say

Worth it if you value seamless logistics and attentive staff who treat you like VIPs. Think twice if you need flexibility when things go wrong—crisis handling could be sharper.

  • Guides Elias and Maria in Athens were exceptional; drivers and staff consistently treated guests as VIPs throughout.
  • Logistics are genuinely tight: pre-trip communication thorough, pickup confirmations the day before, quick responses to questions.
  • One guest had to switch tours after guide incident; local crisis preparedness and flexibility could improve.
  • Athens hotel placement matters: staying near Acropolis first two nights saves drive time, enables evening exploration.
