Day 3 - May 19, 2022 Athens to Mykonos
Athens See, just like we told you. Our time in Athens was amazing and well worth delaying our island time for. But delay it further? We shall not...

Day 6 - May 22, 2022 Mykonos to Santorini
Mykonos This morning, let's spare a thought for all those travelers who only have the time and money to visit just one Greek Island. Those poor unfortunate souls... 
​Santorini Saddle up! We're taking to the seas again, this time in search of the island of Santorini. It's finally your turn to be the one lulling about the white-washed blue dome churches looking like a sultry summer babe. Home to the famous Oia sunset, this is the stuff dreams are made of. Ah, life.
Stay: Okeanis Hotel (or similar)
Included Experiences: 
​
Visit Fira, the clifftop capital of Santorini.
Day 7 - May 23, 2022  Santorini
​
Rise and shine, Greek Island travelers! The island of Santorini will not explore itself. Take a swim at Perissa Beach, eat the local specialty of fried tomato balls known as domatokeftedes, and roam the streets of Fira.
Stay: Okeanis Hotel (or similar)
Free Time Add-Ons:
​
Visit the highlights of Santorini with a spectacular volcano cruise including crater hike and hot springs. EUR 50.00
Day 8 - May 24, 2022 Santorini
​
Rise and shine, Greek Island travelers! The island of Santorini will not explore itself. Take a swim at Perissa Beach, eat the local specialty of fried tomato balls known as domatokeftedes, and roam the streets of Fira. Just remember to plan your day around the excursion to the iconic sunset of Oia - this is not an optional you're going to want to miss.
Stay: Okeanis Hotel (or similar)
Free Time Add-Ons:
​
Visit Oia and soak up one of the world's most famous sunsets. EUR 30.00
Day 9 - May 25, 2022  Santorini to Ios
Santorini Say your so longs to Santorini this morning. We have one last Greek Island to hop to, and we promise she's magnificent. 
​Ios A bit more rugged and remote than Santorini and Mykonos, Ios will prove a nice change of scenery. But thankfully, there will be no change in the hours spent ocean side and good times had.
Stay: Far Out (or similar)
Day 10 - May 26, 2022 Ios
​
Another day, another chance to soak up the Greek sun and frolic in the sand without a care in the world. Get some adrenalin in with some watersports, or if you haven't done so already, go explore the pretty town and down a hearty meal at a local cafe. You're going to need the fuel if you want to hang out in the party scene of Hora until the break of dawn.  
Stay: Far Out (or similar)
Free Time Add-Ons:
​
Speedboat safari. EUR 38.00
Day 11 - May 27, 2022 Ios
​
Don’t underestimate the power of this village. When the sun sets, this place really comes to life. As such, we suggest a day out on the water getting salty on a boat trip, or a full day of pool hangs and beach time so you're all sun-kissed and feeling floaty by the time the night rolls in. 
Stay: Far Out (or similar)
Free Time Add-Ons:
Farewell to Ios Evening Cruise. EUR 35.00
Day 12 - May 28, 2022  Ios to Athens
Ios While choking back the tears and waving miserably at the dreamy islands of Greece, try to think positive thoughts: we have a boat ride to enjoy this morning, as well as one more night together in the city of Athens. 
​Athens One last dose of Athens and one last chance to hang out together as the Greece loving squad that we are.
Stay: Poseidon Hotel (or similar)
Day 13 - May 29, 2022  Depart Athens
​
The moment we'd all been dreading - the goodbyes. As sad as they are, at least you have the memories. And another 300 Contiki trips to jump aboard! Make the most of your last free breakfast before you kick on to your next port of call.​
