Romantic Greek islands trip - 10 days

Welcome to Greece, where your romantic island journey begins. Meet your private driver at Athens Airport for a comfortable transfer, then settle into your hotel at your own pace.

Spend a relaxed afternoon exploring nearby streets and cozy cafés, sampling your first Greek coffee or meze, and soaking in the Athenian atmosphere as your Greece travel experience unfolds.

Immerse yourself in Athens on a guided walk from the Syntagma metro station museum to the Greek Parliament and the Changing of the Guards.

Continue through the National Gardens toward the Temple of Zeus and Hadrian’s Arch before following the sacred route to the Acropolis via the Dionysus Sanctuary and Theater.

At the top, discover the Parthenon and sweeping views across the city’s historic hills. In the evening, enjoy a romantic Greek food and wine pairing, tasting four premium Greek wines with refined local dishes.

Begin your day with a private transfer and high-speed ferry to Folegandros, a quiet Cycladic gem and one of the best places to visit in Greece for couples seeking a slower, more intimate island escape.

In the afternoon, wander the stone-paved alleys of Chora, then hike to the Church of Panagia for sweeping sea views. Swim or relax on the peaceful beaches of Agali or Katergo, then end the day at a cliffside taverna, savoring traditional flavors as the sun sets over the Aegean.

Explore Folegandros with a local guide who reveals hidden viewpoints, quiet chapels, and traditional villages. Hear stories of island life, customs, and history that bring this rugged Cycladic gem into sharper focus.

After your guided discovery, enjoy free time by the sea. Swim in clear Aegean waters or relax on the sand, settling into the island’s slow, peaceful rhythm.

Sail around Folegandros on a private cruise, stopping to swim and dive in secluded bays with crystal clear water. Explore Georgitsis’s cave, linger at hidden beaches far from the crowds, and enjoy the island from its most peaceful perspective.

On board, savor a light homemade meal with fresh fruit, local sweets, and raki for an authentic taste of Folegandros life at sea.

Your Greece trip continues with a private transfer to the high-speed ferry for sun-kissed Santorini. Settle into your hotel and feel the pace slow as the Aegean opens before you.

In the afternoon, indulge in a tailor-made spa ritual with a rejuvenating massage and outdoor bath soak, followed by quiet time on your private sea view terrace. As the sun sets over Oia, taste sparkling wine or local Santorini vintages while taking in the world-famous caldera views.

Savor the romance of Santorini on a private tour with an English-speaking driver escort. Stroll through Megalochori or Emporio, visit the hilltop Prophet Elias Monastery, and pause at the famous Blue Domes for picture-perfect views.

Continue to Oia for a sunset experience overlooking the caldera. You can also add a winery visit with curated tastings to sample Santorini’s distinctive volcanic wines.

Savor a relaxed day in Santorini, with time to shape this part of your Greece itinerary around your own rhythm. Wander Fira’s lively lanes, pause at quiet chapels, and browse small boutiques and cafés.

Continue to Oia for its iconic sunset, finding a quieter spot above the caldera. You can also explore villages such as Pyrgos and Akrotiri, where centuries of history meet volcanic scenery, or unwind on red, black, or white sand beaches before dinner at a sea view taverna.

Sail the legendary Santorini caldera aboard a luxury catamaran, with an expert local crew guiding you to the island’s most beautiful swimming spots. Swim and snorkel near the Hot Springs, Red Beach, and White Beach, discovering hidden coves and clear Aegean waters along the way.

Back on board, relax on plush decks as a gourmet barbecue is prepared with fresh Santorini seafood, Greek specialties, open bar drinks, and signature cocktails.

Savor a slow final morning in Santorini, with time for one last look at the caldera, a quiet walk through whitewashed lanes, or coffee at a favorite local spot.

At the arranged time, your private driver will collect you from your hotel and escort you comfortably to Santorini Airport for your flight back to Athens.
