Athens, Mykonos & Naxos 7 days

Day 1 Welcome to Paros - The Adventure Begins

Embark on an exciting journey as we transfer you to the Port of Piraeus. From there, you'll set sail on a ferry bound for the famous island of Mykonos. Bask in the perfect timing of the crossing, enjoying the sun-drenched deck and immersing yourself in the captivating shades of the Aegean Sea.

Mykonos, known as the "heap of stones" or the "rocky place," holds a rich history. According to legend, it was named after Mykonos, the heroic son of King Anius of Delos. As you arrive on this cosmopolitan island, our friendly English-speaking representative will warmly welcome you. They'll assist with your hotel transfer and introduce you to the enchanting charms of Mykonos.

The remainder of the day is yours to unwind and embrace the laid-back island lifestyle. Immerse yourself in the unhurried pace embraced by the locals, allowing yourself to truly relax and soak in the beauty of Mykonos.

Greca Tip: For a swifter journey, consider selecting a fast ferry during the reservation process.

Free day to spend a delightful time exploring the stunning island of Mykonos. Known as a favorite destination for the international "jet set," it offers a wealth of attractions including beautiful beaches, glamorous shops, and vibrant nightlife.

When it comes to food, Mykonos offers Mediterranean cuisine that incorporates fresh vegetables, flavorful olive oil, and a variety of aromatic spices such as oregano and basil. You can also indulge in delicious fish and seafood dishes.

Remember to visit the nearby historic island of Delos, just a short ferry ride away. According to Greek mythology, Delos is the legendary birthplace of Apollo and Artemis. This ancient island has been inhabited since 3000 BC and holds immense cultural significance from ancient times.

Greca Tip: For an authentic experience, we suggest renting a car or motorcycle to explore the island, immerse yourself in local customs, and truly feel like a part of Mykonos.

Early in the morning, one of our private vehicles will be waiting for you with your assistant to transfer us to the port where you will board the ferry to the island of Naxos.

Upon our arrival on the island, one of our representatives will be waiting for you to transfer you to our hotel and explain a little more about the island. The rest of the day will be free to start enjoying and living the relaxed life that the friendly islanders already enjoy. We recommend taking the day tour to Chora, the island's capital and watching the sunset in the spectacular Portará, which was the gateway to the temple of Apollo.

Tip Greca: Don't forget to taste Musaka, a typical island dish made with eggplants, meat and tomato.

After an exquisite breakfast, you will have a free day to explore the largest island of the Cyclades at your own pace. We recommend using this day to visit the Ancient temple dedicated to Dimitra, sister of Zeus, goddess of wheat and agriculture, and protector of the cycle of the seasons.

This temple is located in the middle of the island's cultivated fields. You can also visit the town of Vivlos, famous for its three windmills, or Filoti, a very interesting and picturesque little village. If you prefer to walk by the beach, you can do so due to their large number and variety, while you would not even have to go far from the town itself. Among others, we suggest that you visit Pyrgaki, Aliko, Hawaii Beach, or Plaka.

Greca Tip: If you like trekking and are well prepared for it, you can ascend Monte Zas, the birthplace of Zeus himself!

At the agreed time, we will transfer you to the new port of Naxos, where you will board the ferry back to Athens.

In the evening, upon your arrival at Piraeus, you will be transferred to your hotel, for a good rest and a rejuvenating sleep that will prepare you for the next day, full of more wonderful experiences and impressions.

Greca Tip: If you want, you can buy a fast ferry ticket for this leg of your trip during step 1 of 3 of your reservation.

At the agreed time, our driver will transfer you to Athens Airport to board your international flight back home or to your next destination. You will check in your luggage and benefit from the tax return resulting from any last-minute tax-free shopping for family and friends.

Undoubtedly, and after spending a few fantastic days with Greca, we hope to see you again soon to create new and extraordinary moments that will be lovingly etched in your memory.

Have a nice trip! Or, as Greeks say: "Kalo taksidi!".

Greca Tip: As a going-away gift, you can choose from a wide range of brightly colored flokati rugs, handmade sandals, embroidered covers, and Greek honey, or olive oil.
