    Sarah and I have just finished sailing from Mykonos to Santorini with Fotis. This was an amazing experience and Fotis was a fantastic skipper who had a wealth of knowledge about sailing and the islands we were sailing through. Would 100% recommend and we are already missing life on board with him! Justin and Sarah

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten November 2024

      Our team is still in the phase of finalizing the hotels for 2025 trip departures. However, I have shared the joining and finishing point hotels of this trip so that you can get an idea of the hotels in other locations. Kindly note that the hotels are subject to change.

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten October 2023

      In most locations we stay in simple tourist-class hotels (i.e. 2-3 stars), plus on many trips you'll also get to experience a night with a local family on a homestay. Your joining point hotel will be Manesol Galata Hotel, Turkey and the finishing point hotel will be Albatros Hotel, Greece.

    Diane

    Asked on August 7th, 2022

    My partner and I are very interested in going on the 'Highlights of Turkey & the Greek Islands' tour departing on the 3rd of September however, only one spot is available. I wanted to confirm whether that one spot was for one or two travellers?

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten August 2022

      Unfortunately that date is fully booked I'm afraid and availability for 2 isn't until 2023. Could another trip or date work?

  • L

    Lauren

    Asked on July 23rd, 2022

    Do they have an international airport in Santorini when the tour end up in Santorini? Or we need to buy another bus/Ferry or air ticket to come back home?

    Tour Details
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten July 2022

      There is an airport in Santorini that can either take you home through Athens, or another stop depending on the itinerary. You are welcome to get the ferry back if that is your preference.

    Leslie

    Asked on July 3rd, 2022

    Travel Support
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten July 2022

      Our trips do not include flights. You would have to organize them on your own. We suggest contacting your preferred airline to see what options are available. We recommend booking flights as soon as possible, as pricing can change quickly. We advise making sure you have cancellation insurance. We recommend insurance providers such as Allianz Global, and World Nomads. The required coverage for our trips is $200,000 USD to cover accident, death, illness and emergency repatriation.
