3 nights in Hotels, 2 nights in Special Stay, 2 nights in Hostel

Transport

Athens: Don’t spend another second worrying about how you’ll get around Athens. We’ve got that covered with a private transfer from the port to the hotel.

Others

Athens: What kind of seat will I have on the ferry? You’ll find a standard seat reserved for you while you’re sailing between the mainland and islands. (Mhm, travelling just like the locals!) Athens: Will the ferries have Wi-Fi? Looking to disconnect from the world (and connect with your new travel pals)? Ferries are the place to be. The Wi-Fi and phone signal when sailing between islands (understandably) tends to be weak. That’s why we always recommend using an e-SIM or getting a local SIM so you can have continued connectivity. But there’s no need to worry if you don’t have one. All accommodations throughout the trip will have Wi-Fi available - so you can keep your Insta followers updated on all the fun! Athens: Do all of the hotels have pools? Almost every time. Most of our accommodations tend to have pool facilities. But hey, you’ve got the sparkling Aegean waters of Greece by your side. So if you wanna take a swim, you’ve got the entire sea to explore. Athens: Can I know what time the ferry will depart & arrive? Ferry departure & arrival timings tend to change for every trip. So if you’d like to know the exact time, you can contact our 24/7 customer service centre. Athens: All aboard! Time to sail from Athens to Mykonos, checking out that glittering sea view as we go. Includes reserved seating. Mykonos: We’ll set sail from marvellous Mykonos to perfect Paros, with reserved seating included. Paros: We’ll board the ferry in Paros and set sail for the sultry island of Santorini. With reserved seating included. Santorini: Don’t worry about getting from the hotel to Fira, we’ve got you covered. (It’s what we do best after all.)

Beaches, naturally sculpted swimming coves, a Byzantine church and traditional villages: we must be in Paros. You’re free to get into the sun and sea vibes.
