Crete
Kickstart your getaway away from the hustle and bustle of mainland Greece, with a trip to Crete - resplendent with unspoiled greenery and miles of peaceful sands for a dose of tranquillity only the Mediterranean can offer. In the seaside fishing village of Agia Pelagia, you’ll be able to experience traditional Greek culture and authentic cuisine, while in Hersonissos you’re just a short distance from Heraklion, home of the Palace of Knossos and the Minoan art of the Heraklion Archaeological Museum. If you’re more intrigued by the stunning scenery, opt to take a boat tour of the coast where you’re guaranteed to get Instagram-worthy snaps. Crete has spectacular landscapes which make for memorable hikes too. Trek through gorges, meander among olive groves and tackle some of the island's highest peaks and you’ll be in for a breath-taking view every step of the way. Or visit the Gorge of Mili, a peaceful place for a walk with some interesting things to explore, including an abandoned village and a church built into the stone. Crete is hard to beat!
Next up, you’ll head to Athens on your Greek adventure - many of Athens’ attractions can be found atop its hills or tucked away down its side streets so break out your most comfortable shoes and get ready to explore on foot! Architectural gems are in good supply within the ancient city. The towering Acropolis, arguably the most significant ancient citadel in the Western world, is a must for any visitor. Filled with important temples like the Parthenon, no expense was spared in the Acropolis’ construction over 2000 years ago – no wonder it still watches over Athens to this day. Walk in the footsteps of great philosophers like Socrates with a visit to the Agora, or head to Monastiraki Flea Market for a taste of modern Athenian life. For a splash of green, head to the National Gardens and soak up the peaceful ambience away from the hustle and bustle. If the call of the beach proves too strong, all you have to do is travel 10 miles south of the capital for the unspoilt sandy beaches, glistening mineral lakes and majestic mountains of the Athens Riviera. Don’t forget the nightlife though! The most buzzing bars and restaurants in the city are right on your doorstep - be sure to pay them a visit for an Ouzo or two at the end of the day.
And last but finally not least, hailed by travel enthusiasts as perhaps the most picturesque of the Greek Islands, Santorini’s black-sand volcanic beaches, clifftop seascapes and marvellous ancient ruins are a sight to behold. Explore the town of Firostefani and its myriad of restaurants and cafes. Go further afield to the village of Kamari and discover its traditional cerulean domes, Cycladic white buildings and views out to the cobalt seas from countless vantage points atop the meandering paths. World-class restaurants and sophisticated bars are easily found, but it’s the collection of nearby wineries and galleries that set Karami out as a place of real creativity and culture. Whenever you aren’t savouring the subtle notes of fine wines or the delicate curvature of handmade crafts, head out to one of the many dive centres or tour operators for a deeper look into the mystical marine biomes that have formed around volcanic eruptions long gone by. Whether you crave relaxation or enrichment, you’ll find it in Santorini…
