Skiathos, Alonissos and Skopelos from Athens 7 days

At the agreed time, one of our private vehicles will be waiting for you with your assistant to transfer you to the airport of Athens, where you will board your flight, lasting about 45 minutes, to the stunning island of Skiathos.

Upon your arrival in Skiathos one of our representatives will be waiting for you to welcome you, transfer you to your hotel and explain a little more about the island.

The rest of the day will be free for you to relax and discover the charms of the island and its beaches. The island is formed by the city of Skiathos and the communities of Koukounaries, Kanapitsa, Vromolimnos and Troulos.

Greca Tip: At daytime, stroll around the town’s paved streets with the cute white houses, red tiled roofs and colourful gardens.  In the evening, head to the ultimate entertainment hotspot, the pedestrianized street by the Old Harbour.

Early in the morning and after a generous breakfast, you will go to the port to embark on your trip to the island of Alonissos. During this boat tour you will enjoy the paradisiacal setting of this archipelago until you reach your destination: Alonissos, an ideal island for nature lovers.

In Alonissos you will have the opportunity to observe shoals of dolphins, monk seals and all the creatures that populate and take refuge in the National Marine Park, founded in 1992.

The old capital, called Chorio or Liadromia, is built on top of a hill. The devastating earthquake of 1965 destroyed a large number of traditional houses, the ruins of which can still be seen today. Many of them have been restored, especially by foreigners, who have gradually settled closer to the sea.

Upon your arrival our representative will be waiting for you to transfer you to the hotel. The rest of the day is free to explore this picturesque island, take a leisurely stroll in the streets of its capital, visit the 15th century Venetian fort offering sweeping views of the sea, and the main harbour of Patitiri, with the beautiful stone paved waterfront.

Greca Tip: At the edge of Patitiri you can stop at the women’s cooperative for some home-baked cheese or spinach pies and local almond sweets.

After a tasty breakfast, you will have a free day to enjoy this fascinating island. With dense vegetation, large pine forests in rocky terrain, olive groves, and orchards, Alonissos has many surprises for you in store.

First of all, it is the proud host of the National Marine Park, a protected area and the ideal place for diving and exploring the underwater sea world. Here you will be able to see the remnants of the 5th century BC shipwreck and afterward, if you are looking for a serene place to relax, you can lie on the beach of Kokino Castro, "the red castle", which was the first settlement of the island.

Another very popular beach is Agios Dimitrios, a place that has repeatedly been recognized for its commitment to environmental conservation.

At night, we suggest trying a typical fish and seafood dish in one of the taverns.

Greca Tip: If your visit seems rather too short, you can always add nights on this idyllic island in step 1 of 3 at the time of your reservation.

After a delicious breakfast, our representative will pick you up to transfer you to the port of Alonissos, where you will board the ferry to the island of Skopelos.

This island has become famous for being the setting of the screen musical Mamma Mia! and from the very first moment, you will see the perfect film location unravel before you!

Upon arrival in Skopelos we will transfer you to your hotel and, along the way, we will introduce you to the unique attractions of this famous island.

The rest of the day is free for you to relax and enjoy a visit to the capital, Chora, which dominates from the top of a hill and extends from the castle down to the port in an amphitheatrical style.

Greca Tip: You can visit the Kastro area, which involves some climbing, but you will be compensated with some fantastic views.

After your breakfast, you will have a whole day to visit the most stunning places in Skopelos, strolling through the traditional alleys and enjoying a lovely meal in one of its bustling taverns.

If you wish, you can start by visiting the locations, where the movie Mamma Mia! was filmed and, most likely, also inspired you to visit the island. Agios Ioannis at Kastri is the small church, where the wedding scene was shot and, while the climb may seem steep, the views are worth the effort.

The most famous beach in Skopelos is Kastani, also shown in the film and, although it can get very busy and crowded, it is so vast that you are bound to enjoy it.  Also, on the southwest coast of the island, you will find the wonderful, sun-drenched beaches of Panormos and Milia, where you can swim and sunbathe. 

However, as they are located at some distance from Chora, we suggest hiring a car or a motorbike, while for more secluded coves, remote bays, and serene beaches, we suggest hiring a small boat.

Optionally, as there is much more to see on this beautiful island, you have the option of extending your stay in Skopelos by adding extra nights during step 1 of 3 of your reservation.

Greca Tip: You will be fortunate if you watch the beautiful sunset and the idyllic views from Glossa, the 'Balcony of the Aegean'.

In the morning we will enjoy a lovely breakfast and then, we will be transferred to the port to take the ferry to Skiathos.

This is the most famous island of the Sporades, the only one with an airport, which not only serves domestic but also some international flights, too, especially during the summer season. Thanks to its beaches and the fun atmosphere, it is also known as the "Capri of the Aegean".

Upon arrival at the port of Skiathos, we will be transferred to our hotel, where you can first take a rest and then set out on a splendid tour of the town at your own pace.

Greca Tip: Skiathos' nightlife is legendary, so make the most of it!

After a delicious breakfast, at the time indicated, one of our vehicles will take you to Skiathos International Airport to check in your luggage and benefit from any tax return as a result of your last minute tax-free shopping.

From Skiathos, we have included your flight back to Athens so you can conveniently connect with your international flight home (please confirm the times with your agent before booking the international flight). Alternatively, you may choose to stay a few additional nights in Athens to explore the vibrant capital.

From all of us at Greca Travel, 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: Before you leave do not forget to try the herb pie 'hortopita' and the spoon sweet 'aspro', meaning white, because of the colour of the blanched almonds used for its preparation.
