The adventure
Island hopping in Greece—it’s the dream, right? Picture sun-kissed beaches, whitewashed villages, and epic sunsets over the Mediterranean. On this nine-day adventure from Athens to Santorini, you'll experience it all and a whole lot more. Start by uncovering ancient history at the Acropolis and Parthenon, then wander the charming streets of Mykonos and Naxos. Make new friends while learning Greek cuisine at a cooking class in Athens, and indulge in fresh local flavours on a food tour in Tinos. End your journey in Santorini, strolling along the volcanic caldera and soaking up those iconic views.
Arrive by 16:00 to catch an included arrival transfer to the hotel. After a welcome briefing in the evening, set off with your CEO and new travelling companions to take part in a hands-on (and delicious) cooking class of traditional Greek cuisine. Don the apron and join your new travel mates to learn how to make some of the country's most delectable dishes like dolmades, spanakopita and the ubiquitous tzatziki sauce. There is no better way to be introduced to a new culture than through it's cuisine with new friends.
Enjoy a free morning to immerse yourself deeper into this historical city or to relax, then set off to discover Athens on an afternoon packed with highlights and local culture. The first stop is at a local non-profit cafe, Shedia Home, which supports the homeless community by providing purpose and employment. Next, you're off to some of the most iconic ancient Greek sites of the Agora, Acropolis and Parthenon where you will explore with a local guide. This evening join your CEO as we head up to Filopappou Hill for a wonderful sunset over Athens.
