Orientation meeting and transfer to your hotel.

Day 2:Athens - city tour & Cape Sounion

Half day walking tour including visit of the Acropolis. Afternoon tour to Cape Sounion including visit of the Temple of Poseidon

Day 3:Athens – Santorini

Embark ferry to Santorini. Free afternoon to view famous sunset

Day 4:Santorini – Ios (sailing)

Embark to our sailing boat and sail to Ios. Check out Hora’s shops, restaurants and bars (a short walk from the harbour in Ios) which all come alive in the evenings. A visit to Panagia Gremiotissa (Church of the Virgin) offers beautiful sunset views from a hilltop

Day 5:Amorgos (sailing)

Sail to the island of Amorgos (approximately 4 hours) Stop for a swim at Paradisi Beach before continuing along the coast to the port of Katapola. The restaurants, cafes and bars along the waterfront are an excellent place to relax and enjoy views of classic Cycladic windmills and an old Venetian castle

Day 6:Small Cyclades (sailing)

Cast off and sail to the Small Cyclades this morning (approximately 4 hours). While all of these islands once harboured communities in ancient times, the middle ages saw this reduced to just pirates and goats

Day 7-8:Naxos (sailing)

Today you’ll make your way to the largest Cycladic island of Naxos. There’s the option of taking a day trip around the island, but you can always stay behind and relax. The island’s best beaches are to the south, where water sports are also on offer. Get a taste of the local brew with a shot of Kitron

Day 9:Syros (sailing)

Sail to the island of Syros (approximately 4 hours), dropping by the Bay of Gaidharos along the way for a swim. Known for its relaxed atmosphere and neo-classical architecture, Syros’ neutral role during the Greek revolution made it a safe haven for the persecuted

Day 10:Mykonos (sailing)

In the morning, raise anchor and set off on a short cruise (approximately 3 hours) to an island packed with beauty and glamour, Mykonos. With a history of around 5,000 years, the island is said to be named after Apollo’s grandson. In the evening, perhaps wander down to Little Venice, where colourful wooden balconies hang precariously over the sea – the ideal spot to sit back with a cocktail and enjoy an Aegean sunset. Afterwards, join in the fun of Mykonos’ notorious nightlife.

Day 11:Sifnos

Set sail for the island of Sifnos, known for its production of high quality ceramics. The island’s bare hills belie fertile valleys of wild juniper, terraced olive groves and almond trees. The beach in the main port of Kamares is one of the best on the island and the ideal place to swim. Wander among the whitewashed houses, churches and chapels of the village of Apollonia, which is the capital of Sifnos

Day 12:Folegandros (sailing)

Sail towards the tranquil island of Folegandros this morning. Take a stroll through the island’s capital of Hora, one of the oldest villages in the Cyclades
