THE CRADLE OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION

Ranking in the World’s Top 20 countries of travel destinations, Greece has amazing and diverse places to see and things to do. For the History buffs there is an abundance of Archaeological sites with ancient ruins, museums and many ‘homes’ of the Greek Mythological Gods. The nature fanatics have endless beaches on over 5,000 islands to discover, volcanoes to explore and mountains to hike. The adventure seekers can hike Mt. Olympos (home to 12 Greek Gods), wind surf on breezy beaches, kayak or canoe into amazing caves, snorkel and scuba dive in crystal clear waters, rock climb at Kalymnos Island and the list is never ending. The more cosmopolites always enjoy the nightlife that lasts until the morning hours, the chic shopping boutiques and catered beaches that offer champagne and delicious meals right on the beach lounge chairs.

Apart from the famous Greek islands and mouth watering Greek cuisine, Greece is a destination that has something to offer for each and every person’s desires, whether young or old.

CYCLADES World class beaches with rugged backdrops, white and blue villages contrasting the bright colors of bougainvilleas and the blue-domed churches, can only describe the Cyclades islands.

DAY 1: ATHENS

DAY 2: ATHENS - TZIA (KEA)

Athens is the historical capital of Europe, with a long history, dating from the first settlement in the Neolithic age. A must visit is the Parthenon and the Acropolis Museum, perhaps even a performance at the ancient Herod Atticus Theater. Athens nightlife never stops, sometimes even when the sun comes up, the party keeps going!

Tzia, or aka Kea, has the tranquility you need after a long night out in Athens. This island has so much ancient artifacts that scuba diving is banned from several of its areas. A beach stop to Pisses for swimming, water sports and snorkeling before heading to the picturesque main port of Vourkari for the night.

Some of the best restaurants and beach clubs in the Greek islands can be found here, including the infamous Nammos restaurant at the cosmopolitan Psarrou beach and Nobu’s Matsuhisa restaurant located in the heart of Mykonos town.

Naoussa is a tiny fishing harbor, packed tightly with traditional fishing boats and surrounded by restaurants and cafes. It is a typical Cycladic scene, with octopuses hanging up to dry, fishermen mending their nets, and all sorts of craft coming and going from the harbor.

The most famous and photographed sunsets are from the Caldera of Santorini. With its dazzling panoramas, romantic sunsets and volcanic-sand beaches, it is undoubtedly a bucket-list destination. Franco’s Bar offers stunning sunset views with classical music to your ears and a glass of wine to your palate.
