What people love about Greek Islands Tours in October
- 2 Greek Islands Tour - 5 Days - Paros & Santorini - Premium
The volcano of Santorini is impressive! You can stand on the crater edge and just smell the sulfur flowing up from the ground! All the services were excellent.
- Greece Sailing Adventure: Cyclades Islands
My daughter and I just got back from sailing around 9 greek islands starting in Santorini n finishing there. The whole experience was sensational and I highly recommend it. The group got on really well we had a blast of a time. The Skipper Antonios was totally awesome in assuring our safety n explaining the different parts of the yatch n he gave us an opportunity to sail the boat I totally loved sailing the boat what an experience it was. Ill never forget the deep blue sea i was mesmorised by the colour. Antonios did great job at telling us about the islands n where to catch the bus if we wanted n guided us in best way possible. I loved everything about this holiday the only downfall was how tiny the cabins were pretty tight n squishy but we survived, we were there for 3wks but it felt like 3 months in a fantabulous way. Will definately do it again 1 day. Love love loved it. Cat and Bonnie xo

Great trip, great communication throughout the trip! Everything was taken care of
