Athens, Milos & Santorini 7 days

As you step onto Athenian soil, you're walking into a city where legends were born. A Greca representative will be waiting to take you comfortably to your hotel, where you can settle in and begin soaking up the Hellenic spirit.

Later in the afternoon, one of our team members will meet with you to give a personalized presentation of your upcoming journey and answer any questions you may have.

The rest of the day is yours. Stroll through timeless streets, enjoy local delicacies, and let the pulse of this lively capital introduce itself in its own unique rhythm.

Greca Tip: Enhance your experience by easily extending your stay. Add more nights during the booking process!

Today, you will enjoy a delightful breakfast and prepare for a wonderful day as you discover the city of Athens and its fascinating blend of history and modernity.

During the panoramic tour, you will admire the Athenian Trilogy (National Library, University, and Academy of Athens), the Presidential Mansion, the Panathenaic Stadium (Kallimarmaro), where the first modern Olympic Games were held, the Zappeion, the majestic Temple of Olympian Zeus, which for centuries was one of the largest temples in Greece, and Hadrian’s Arch, built in honor of the Roman emperor.

The itinerary includes a visit to the Acropolis, symbol of the classical world and home to the Parthenon, a masterpiece of Greek architecture; the Erechtheion, with its famous Caryatids; and the Temple of Athena Nike, dedicated to the goddess of victory. You will admire the history and legends surrounding these monuments while enjoying panoramic views of Athens from the hill.

The tour concludes at a central point in the city, ideal for continuing to explore Athens at your own pace. Later, you will head at your own rhythm to Monastiraki to join the “Athens by Night” tour, enjoying a walking tour through Plaka and Anafiotika, admiring the illuminated Acropolis, and passing by iconic sites such as Athens Cathedral and Ermou Street, while discovering how the city comes alive under the moonlight.

Greca Tip: At the Acropolis, mythology, architecture, and unique Athens panoramas come together. See how the Parthenon has inspired architects for over two thousand years and discover the stories of the ancient gods and heroes who dwell in these monuments.

Early in the morning, in one of our vehicles, your assistant will transfer you to the port of Piraeus. There, we board the ferry to Milos—an island bathed in myth and beauty.

The ferry ride is part of the journey: salty breezes, endless blue, and a promise of paradise. Upon arrival, your transfer will take you to your hotel, with glimpses of Milos’ wild charm along the way.

This is the island where the Venus of Milos was discovered—found by a farmer and later sold to France in a dispute that left many questions unanswered.

The rest of the day is yours to begin unraveling the magic of this Cycladic treasure.

Greca Tip: Try the local watermelon pie, karpouzópita—a sweet taste of Milos summer in every bite.

Today you will wake up in a place where time slows down. After breakfast, the day is open for you to explore Milos and its more than 70 beaches, each one a masterpiece of nature.

We recommend starting in the south with Kleftiko, where white rock formations rise from turquoise waters like sculptures carved by the gods. Head north and find Sarakiniko, a surreal moonscape of smooth, chalk-white stone unlike anywhere else on Earth.

Freedom in Milos means following your instinct—from hidden caves to charming whitewashed villages.

Greca Tip: In the evening, we suggest strolling through the charming town of Adamas, Milos port, where you can sit at a table on one of the terraces by the sea.

After breakfast, we bid farewell to Milos. A transfer takes us to the port, where we board the ferry bound for Santorini—perhaps the most iconic island in the world.

As the ferry approaches, Santorini greets us with its whitewashed cliffs, cascading down into the volcanic caldera. Upon arrival, a Greca representative awaits to escort you to your hotel.

The rest of the day is yours to discover hidden alleys, boutique shops, and scenic overlooks. Let the island begin its quiet enchantment.

Greca Tip: Find a terrace overlooking the caldera and watch the sun dip into the sea—many say it's the most beautiful sunset on Earth.

Today is yours to experience Santorini at your own rhythm. The island’s story is written in its cliffs, wines, and ancient ruins.

Named Santa Irene by Venetian sailors, Santorini’s layers of history run deep—from medieval duchies to Ottoman whispers.

Optionally, you can go on a dazzling sailboat tour that will take you over to the small islands of Santorini Caldera, Nea, and Palea Kameni, with the hot springs of green and yellow waters.

Greca Tip: On this free day, we recommend exploring the island, tasting its wine and its excellent local cuisine. We cannot miss tasting the tomato keftedes (a kind of tomato balls), the fava dishes (a vegetable smaller than a pea), and the cheese called Chloro. Here is a catamaran cruise with wine tasting in Santorini you may want to take.

As the time arrives, we will transfer you to Santorini Airport for your return flight to Athens. Rest assured that your arrival at the airport will align conveniently with your international flight, ideally scheduled for departure after 12:30 PM.

It has been a pleasure hosting you during these wonderful days with Greca, and we eagerly look forward to welcoming you back in the future to create more extraordinary moments that will forever hold a special place in your heart.

Wishing you a pleasant journey! Or, as the Greeks say: "Kalo taksidi!"

If you wish to extend your stay in Santorini, feel free to add more nights during the reservation process.

Greca Tip: Consider purchasing the classic Assyrtiko wine or the sweet Vinsanto from Santorini. You can find them at local shops or take advantage of the duty-free selection at Athens Airport, which offers a delightful array of Greek wines and spirits.
