About this trip

Five days split between two of Greece's best-known islands, Mykonos and Santorini, with two nights in a 3-star hotel on each. Breakfast is included daily, and a ferry with transfers gets you between the islands without any hassle.

Beyond a half-day tour of Delos and a full-day tour of Santorini, the days are largely yours. It suits people who want a taste of guided sightseeing but mostly want to set their own pace, wander the villages, and find a good spot to watch the sun go down.

What you'll do

  • Half-day guided tour of the ancient site of Delos
  • Full-day tour around Santorini
  • Ferry crossing between Mykonos and Santorini with transfers included
  • Free time to explore Mykonos Town and its beaches
  • Free time to take in Santorini's villages and caldera views
Good to know
  • Partially guided — the two included tours aside, days are unstructured and left to you
  • Easy pace with only one island change, so no constant packing and moving
  • Suits travellers who want some structure but also want time to do their own thing

  1. Athens / Mykonos — Mykonos

    You'll be picked up from your hotel at 6am and driven to Piraeus port to catch the ferry to Mykonos. After arriving on the island, you're transferred to your accommodation.

  2. Spend the morning wandering Mykonos Town's cobbled alleyways and browsing shops along Matoyianni Street. The afternoon involves a guided tour of Delos, the nearby archaeological site where Apollo and Artemis were allegedly born, dotted with ruins from various ancient periods.

  3. Mykonos / Santorini — Mykonos

    You have a free morning on Mykonos before heading to the port for the ferry to Santorini. On arrival, explore whitewashed backstreets, churches and museums at your own pace, including Alefkandra (Little Venice), an 18th-century district with colourful seafront houses.

  4. A six-hour boat excursion departs from Athinios port to the volcano. You'll walk across Nea Kameni's ridge with a guide learning its geology, spend 1.5 hours there, then visit Palea Kameni's thermal hot springs for a 30-minute swim.

  5. Free day to enjoy Santorini's views and black sand beaches before transferring to port. You'll ferry back to Piraeus and get driven to your Athens hotel, arriving around midnight.

What travellers actually say

Worth it if you value seamless logistics and cultural depth. Think twice if you need last-minute flexibility or prefer smaller groups.

  • Solo travellers praise the balance of organization and independence throughout the trip.
  • The Delos day trip exceeded expectations; excavation site was larger than anticipated and culturally rich.
  • Pre-trip planning support from staff like Susana, plus reliable local guides and punctual scheduling throughout.
  • Five days covers two islands with domestic flights; travel days will be substantial between locations.
