After gathering in the morning, drive to Delphi, known as the
“Navel of the World” and the “Center of the Earth”.
Visit the [Delphi Archaeological Site and Museum], where Zeus’
two eagles met and Apollo established his temple.
Stroll through the hills and valleys, immersed in the glory of ancient Greece.
On the way, explore [Arachova town], known as “Little Switzerland”.
Wander through the tranquil and winding streets of Arachova, where snowy peaks
are shrouded in mist, evoking a sense of peace and elegance.
Overnight in or near Kalambaka.
[ Arachova ]
Arachova is a picturesque mountain village nestled at the foot of Mt. Parnassos in Southern Greece. According to mythology, Mount Parnassos was sacred to Dionysus, Apollo, and the nine Muses — making it a place of divine inspiration and artistic legend. Today, Arachova is a charming alpine escape often called the “Little Switzerland of Greece.”
[ Delphi Archaeological Site and Museum ]
The sanctuary of Delphi was once the religious center of the ancient Greek world. Here, the oracle of Apollo spoke and the sacred omphalos stone marked the navel of the earth. Harmoniously blending with the mountainside, Delphi in the 6th century BC symbolized unity among Greek city-states and remains one of Greece’s most spiritually charged sites.
After breakfast, we set off to explore Greece’s “Sky City” —
[Meteora], a breathtaking UNESCO World Heritage site where
monasteries from the 14th century sit perched atop towering sandstone cliffs.
Marvel at the spectacular views and learn about the lives of monks who built
their sanctuaries high above the valley to be closer to heaven.
Overnight in or near Athens.
⚠️ Note: The opening hours of the six monasteries vary. Usually, two monasteries are visited per trip. Please respect the dress code: women must wear skirts. Aprons are available to borrow at the entrance.
[ Meteora ]
Meteora is a rock formation in Thessaly, northern Greece, home to
one of the most important complexes of Eastern Orthodox monasteries — second in
importance only to Mount Athos.
Between the 14th and 16th centuries, 24 monasteries were built atop these
enormous natural pillars, though only six remain active today: Great Meteoron,
Varlaam, Saint Nicholas Anapausas, Rousanou, Holy Trinity, and Saint Stephen.
The name “Meteora” means “suspended in the air,” and perfectly captures the
feeling of awe as you stand before this majestic landscape. Its combination of
geological beauty and spiritual significance earned it a place on UNESCO’s
World Heritage List in 1988.
After breakfast, take a ferry from Piraeus Port in Athens to
Santorini Island.
⛴️ The sailing duration is generally as follows:
• Piraeus Port → Santorini: 07:25–14:50
• Rafina Port → Santorini: 07:20–12:40
Please refer to the specific ferry schedules for accurate timings. Actual departure
depends on the arranged ferry service.
Upon arrival in the afternoon, visit [Oia] — the crown jewel of
Santorini — to admire its world-famous sunset over the Aegean Sea.
Whitewashed houses perched on volcanic cliffs, domed blue churches, and a
horizon that melts into the ocean create an unforgettable, dreamlike scene.
Overnight in Santorini or nearby.
[ Santorini OIA ]
Oia is the second largest town on Santorini Island, perched
gracefully on the caldera cliffs above the Aegean Sea.
Famous for its spectacular sunsets, Oia draws travelers from around the world
who gather at dusk to witness the sun dipping into the sea.
The whitewashed houses, blue-domed churches, and narrow cobblestone alleys
glow golden in the fading light. As the sky turns shades of pink and violet,
the atmosphere becomes serene — a moment when time feels suspended.
Watching the sunset here is an unforgettable experience that embodies the
pure, timeless beauty of Greece.
Enjoy a full day to immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of
Santorini Island.
Explore its volcanic landscapes, dazzling blue seas, and picturesque whitewashed towns.
Optional tours and activities are available for those seeking adventure or
relaxation — from sailing across crystal waters to wandering the charming streets
of Fira.
[ 5-Hour Sailing Cruise with Meals Included (Optional) ]
Sail across the Aegean on a luxurious 5-hour cruise to the famous
Red Beach and White Beach.
Visit the striking Black Mountain formed by volcanic eruptions, and
sail past the Venetian Lighthouse.
Continue to the Volcano of Nea Kameni and the Hot Springs
where you can swim, snorkel, or relax on deck while savoring a seafood BBQ lunch
and drinks from the open bar.
(In winter, the cruise usually replaces swimming with a volcanic island visit.)
[ Black Beach – Kamari ]
Santorini’s unique volcanic geology created its signature black sand beach at Kamari — a long stretch of shimmering black pebbles formed from cooled lava. It’s ideal for sunbathing or a casual swim. As night falls, the beach comes alive with vibrant seaside bars, live music, and cozy tavernas.
[ Fira Town ]
Fira (Thira) is the capital of Santorini, filled with cafés, boutiques, and iconic blue-domed churches. Stroll through its labyrinthine alleys, shop for handmade crafts, or relax with coffee overlooking the caldera. In summer, the town buzzes with life — the perfect romantic destination for couples and honeymooners.
⚠️ Note: When joining the volcano tour, please bring towels, bottled water, and wear swimwear in advance. There are no changing rooms on board. Avoid slippers — volcanic rocks can be hot and rough. Guests who cannot swim should remain on the boat near the hot springs for safety.
After breakfast, visit the highest point on Santorini, where the island’s first monastery offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Aegean Sea. Continue your journey to the picturesque village of [Pyrgos], the island’s former capital until the early 19th century. Stroll along its winding stone paths lined with traditional whitewashed houses, Byzantine churches, and quaint galleries.
After lunch, board a ferry back to Athens.
⛴️ Typical sailing durations:
• Santorini → Piraeus Port: 15:30 – 23:25
• Santorini → Rafina Port: 14:15 – 20:20
Please refer to the ferry company’s official schedule for exact timings. Actual departures depend on
assigned ferry services.
⚠️ Note: The ferry from Santorini to Athens is a large and stable vessel, taking around
8 hours. Seasickness is rare.
Guests who prefer faster travel may choose to leave the group in Santorini and return by flight
(airfare not included).
Ferry operations may be affected by weather, sea conditions, strikes, or technical issues.
In case of cancellation, the ferry ticket fee will be refunded, and guests can purchase their own flight
to Athens.
[ Pyrgos ]
Pyrgos is the highest village in Santorini, offering sweeping views of both sides of the island.
Located 8 km southeast of Fira, Pyrgos remains deeply traditional, preserving its Cycladic character with
narrow winding alleys and stone houses.
The village is adorned with blue-domed churches, hidden art galleries, and small family-run
cafés. At its base, you’ll find a lively square surrounded by shops, markets, and taverns offering authentic
Greek cuisine — a perfect farewell to your days in Santorini.
After breakfast, embark on a journey through Athens — the cradle of Western civilization and the heart of ancient Greece.
Begin your exploration with a visit to the world-famous [Acropolis], an ancient citadel perched on a rocky hill overlooking the city.
Discover its timeless monuments, including the Parthenon,
Temple of Athena Nike,
Theatre of Dionysus, and the Erechtheion with its iconic Caryatid columns.
Continue to [Syntagma Square] and visit the [Hellenic Parliament] and
[Tomb of the Unknown Soldier], where you can witness the solemn and traditional
[Changing of the Guard Ceremony].
Finally, enjoy some free time in [Plaka Old Town] — Athens’ most picturesque neighborhood,
known as the “Neighborhood of the Gods” for its proximity to the Acropolis, its neoclassical charm,
and vibrant streets lined with cafés and artisan shops.
⚠️ Note: Times above are for reference. Delays may occur due to weather, traffic, or local events. Please allow at least 3 extra hours for connecting travel plans. Thank you for your understanding.
[ Acropolis ]
The Acropolis of Athens and its monuments stand as universal symbols of
classical spirit and civilization — the greatest architectural legacy of Greek antiquity.
The surviving structures include:
• Propylaea – gateway to the sacred precinct.
• Parthenon – chief shrine to Athena and treasury of the Delian League.
• Erechtheion – shrine to agricultural deities, known for the Caryatids.
• Temple of Athena Nike – symbolizing peace and unity between Dorian and Ionian peoples.
