Day 1: Begin in Athens
Our first day kicks off exactly where it needs to be: in the heart of Athens! Meet your group tonight at the hotel. We have a welcome dinner planned to get to know each other better over delicious Greek food, served with Ouzo shots. YAMAS!
Day 2: Athens
Let's face it: no trip to Athens is complete without the Acropolis Parthenon! Tick this ancient landmark off your bucket list this morning. Then explore one of Athens' trendy neighbourhoods, from street art to local beers.
Day 3: Athens to Mykonos
Get ready for insane ocean views as we cruise to Mykonos early this morning (aka Greece's most famous party island!). Picture this: sipping on cocktails, dancing on the beach and the best DJ sets, shared with your new mates. We'll be staying right outside Paradise Beach Club!
Day 4: Mykonos
Enjoy a lazy morning by the beach. Later today, we'll explore the island's picturesque Old Town and catch the sunset by the iconic windmills. Tonight it's time for Mykonos nightlife, round two!
Day 5: Mykonos to Ios
Set sail for Ios early this morning, famed for its bright turquoise waters and sleepy beachside towns that come alive after sunset. Unwind with a free afternoon before tonight's bar crawl. Let's party hard and maybe dance on a few tables... This is Ios, after all!
Day 6: Ios
Hop onto a speedboat this morning as we discover the island's best-kept secret. Enjoy a stunning beach practically all to ourselves, plus snorkelling spots (did you know you can spot a shipwreck here?). Celebrate the day with a prosecco picnic!
Day 7: Ios to Santorini
Catch the ferry to Santorini this morning, with free time to chill by the pool or at the black sand beach nearby. Tonight it's time for our wine tasting! Think sunset pictures, that outfit you've been waiting to wear, and sipping on fine wines... How fancy are we?
Day 8: Santorini
This is your free day in Santorini, so make the most out of it! Maybe you fancy a lazy beach day or going on a hike. When golden hour hits, head to the blue domes of Oia for the dreamiest sunset of your life. Then it's time for one final night out together!
Day 9: Finish in Santorini
And just like that, our Greek island-hopping adventure has come to an end. You're welcome to leave anytime today after breakfast. Until next time!
