The islands of Greece offer a lot to everyone... Great
nature, unspoiled beaches, history, delicious Greek food,
friendly local people, sun, entertainment and more...
Mykonos and Santorini; they both epitomise the postcard
image of the Greek islands : dazzling white buildings are
offset by bright-blue church domes, while golden beaches
meet an aquamarine sea...
Travel Talk takes you to the capital of the ancient world,
Athens, and to the best Hellas islands in great convenience
where you can relax at the unique beaches, visit numerous
historical and natural sights, meet people from all over the
world and enjoy a journey of a lifetime !
“Greece Island Hopping” is a mixture of independent travel
and a group tour. While providing you with the necessary
arrangements like transportation, accommodation and
transfers on the islands, it allows you loads of free time
to do your own thing and to plan your own day. That’s why
there will be no tour leader or guide during your travel.
The services mentioned on the introduction pages of these
brochure (pages 2, 3, 4 and 5) are not valid for this tour.
Please check “services included” section for more details.
What You See
Athens
The beauty of the ancient monuments, the quality of the
museums, friendly Mediterranean people, the great Greek
history... All contribute to the pleasure of visiting
Athens, the city of Athena, the cradle of Europen
civilization inhabited for 7000 years. The Acropolis, Plaka,
Syntagma, the narrow streets and traditional shops around
the old city...they all are worth to explore.
Mykonos The granite island of Mykonos is one of the
most typical of the Cyclades. It is arid with wild
wind-steps coasts; the outline of its white-washed cuboid
houses is clear cut; its windmills and chapels stand out
against the brillant transparent light. Despite its
reputation as a fashionable resort, Mykonos has retained its
timeless beauty.
Santorini is one of the most spectacular
islands of the Mediterranean which presents the awesome
sight of a volcanic crater partially submerged by the sea.
The landscape of the island is unique: towering cliffs
crowned
by tiny and blindingly white houses plunge straight into the
depths of the sea. Santorini offers numerous historical,
cultural and natural sights to discover. |
