About this trip

A self-guided island-hopping trip through Athens, Tinos, Mykonos and Syros, with premium hotels and the ferries and transfers between islands sorted for you.

Each stop gets two nights, so you get a proper feel for the place rather than a flying visit. Days are left open for you to set your own pace — beaches, village wandering, or just finding a good spot for the sunset.

This suits people who want the logistics handled but no set itinerary. There are no guided activities included; it is your time to fill as you like.

What you'll do

  • Explore Athens before heading out to the islands
  • Wander the marble villages of Tinos
  • Spend time on Mykonos's beaches
  • Take in the Venetian architecture and sunsets of Syros town
  • Travel between islands by ferry, all pre-booked
  • Two nights in premium hotels at each stop
Good to know
  • Self-guided and private — no group, no guide, and days are unstructured
  • Ferry tickets and transfers between islands are arranged for you
  • Breakfast is included but other meals and activities are not

  1. You're met at Eleftherios Venizelos Airport by a representative who arranges your private transfer to the hotel. The rest of the day is yours to explore Athens at your own pace.

  2. Athens / Syros — Syros

    A private transfer takes you from Athens airport to your accommodation. Spend the remainder of the day at leisure discovering the city's main sights.

  3. Syros reveals itself as you arrive in Ermoupoli, the capital, built amphitheatrically up the hillside. The blue-domed Agios Nikolaos and St George's cathedral in the Roman Catholic quarter dominate the skyline; beaches like Vari, Foínikas, Yalissas and Kíni offer both sandy and pebbled options with clear water and quiet surroundings.

  4. Syros / Tinos — Tinos

    You have a free morning before heading to Syros port for the ferry to Tinos. After arrival, a transfer takes you to your hotel where you can settle in and rest.

  5. Tinos centres on Panagia Megalochari, Greece's most significant religious site, but the island extends far beyond. Villages like Pyrgos, Kardiani, Ysternia and Falatados scatter across the slopes where you can sample Tinian cheese, louza and raki; beaches at Hysternia, Agia Thalassa and Kantani range from sandy to pebbled.

  6. Tinos / Mykonos — Tinos

    Your morning is free before transfer to Tinos port for the ferry to Mykonos. Upon arrival, transport takes you to the hotel for the rest of the day at leisure.

  7. Mykonos's capital draws you through whitewashed backstreets lined with churches and museums. Matoyanni Street has high-end shops and restaurants; Alefkandra, known as Little Venice, features 18th-century colourful houses built into the sea. The island's beaches suit both party crowds and those seeking isolation.

  8. Transfer to port and ferry departure to Piraeus, arriving around midnight with onward transfer to your Athens hotel.

  9. Breakfast at the hotel, then free time until your private transfer to Eleftherios Venizelos Airport four hours before departure.
