Explore one of the most famous of the Greek islands with this two-day tour from Athens. You'll have the chance to visit the famous beaches like Paradise and Super Paradise (and don't worry if you forgot your bathing suit) and enjoy the vibrant nightlife on Mykonos.

Visit the Volcanic Island of Nissyros

I have a passion for volcanic islands, whether they're in Greece, Hawaii or Iceland. This Greek island, Nissyros, is a relatively rare one for visitors and its unique geography makes it unforgettable. The tour departs from the Greek island of Kos.

Full Day Tour of Kos

This day trip visits all the major sites on Kos, including the famed Asklepeion, the temple of Asclepius, the god of healing.

Dinner and Dancing Show on Kos

Highly sophisticated? Then this somewhat kitschy show is probably not for you, but for the rest of us, it's a fun evening filled with life-embracing clichés. You have to do one of these on your first trip to Greece!

Kos - Private Airport Transfer

Traveling alone? This can be a great deal if you like being met at the airport and having everything arranged in advance. If you're part of a larger group, you'll probably save money hiring a taxi at the airport.

Corfu - Private Airport Arrival Transfer

The price on this is so low that it's worthwhile for almost anyone. You have the advantage of being met at the the airport and taken directly to your hotel.

4-Day Santorini Excursion

This trip departs from Athens and makes it easy to get to Santorini and get you to a pleasant hotel. While you can design a similar trip on your own, it's a great option if you don't want to plan all the details yourself.

Aegina, Hydra, and Poros Day Trip from Athens

Rack up some extra Greek island experiences in just one day on this trip visiting Aegain (Egine), Hydra, and Poros. While it's just a taste of each, it's also a great way to familiarize yourself with the islands for a longer stay.

Four Day Tour to Spetses

Spetses is a famous island, renowned for its redoubtable lady admiral, Laskarina Bouboulina. Some called her a pirate, but you won't hear that on Spetses, where she is revered as a patriot. This is a fun and easy way to get to an island that is often overlooked by visitors.
