A 13day Greece island vacation package, that includes vibrant Athens and 3 beautiful Greek islands.
The ancient city of Athens is today a vibrant megalopolis with nonstop nightlife, creative cuisine, and sites both ancient and modern. In the thousands of sidewalk cafés, courting teenagers, young professionals, and old men shuffling their worry beads all bask in Athens’s modern-day renaissance. 
Syros island is an authentic merging of traditional and modern Greece. The port town of Ermoupoli is the handsomest of all Cycladic towns. Discover one of the most endearing islands in the Aegean, with several attractive beaches, great eating options and the best of everyday Greek island life.
Naxos island with its charming mountain villages, superb beaches and endless Greek sunshine, it is easy to see why the island has become so popular.
Santorini is the essence of a Greek island, where sea meets weather-beaten rock and colours are bold and elemental. Blue-domed chapels stand on hilltops, houses are simple white cubes, sunsets flamboyant orange. The half-moon island, with its rearing cliffs and dramatic outlooks, is all that remains of a huge volcanic explosion. Inland, fertile soils provide a softer landscape of silvery olive trees, fields of tomatoes and neatly pegged vineyards that produce sweet amber-colored wine.
