Itinerary
- Day 1
Athens to Mykonos
An early start gets you to Piraeus port by 6am for your ferry to Mykonos Island. The crossing takes a few hours, and once you arrive, a transfer takes you straight to your hotel so you can settle in and freshen up after the journey.
- Day 2
Mykonos
You have the full day to explore Mykonos on your own terms. Wander through the backstreets lined with whitewashed houses and small churches, or head to Matoyanni Street to browse the high-end boutiques and grab a coffee at one of the cafes. Alefkandra, also called Little Venice, sits right by the water with its 18th-century colorful buildings reflected in the sea, making it a perfect spot to spend some time. If you want to be on the water, the island's beaches range from popular spots to quiet coves tucked away from the crowds.

Santorini Volcano and Sunset Cruise
This full-day cruise departs from Athinios port and heads out to Nea Kameni volcano first. Your guide leads you on about a 20-minute walk to the ridge, which gives you a real feel for the volcanic landscape. From there, the boat sails to Palea Kameni so you can soak in the thermal hot springs for roughly 30 minutes, and the mineral-rich waters are supposed to have healing properties. Later, you'll cruise past Thirasia Island while enjoying dinner on board, then anchor near Oia village to watch the sunset over the Caldera from the water before heading back to port.
