Overview

About the destination:

Greece is a place where historic ruins, volcanic cliffs, and friendly locals meet the blue Mediterranean Sea. Mykonos is one of the most famous Greek islands for its cosmopolitan atmosphere and vivid nightlife! No wonder why it’s widely known as the “Ibiza of Greece”! Chora, the main town of Mykonos, is where the heart of the island beats! Awarded Mykonos restaurants, designer boutiques, elegant bars, and top clubs, guarantee an unforgettable Greece holiday experience.

Santorini, one of the most beautiful Greek islands, evolved from one of the world’s biggest volcanic eruptions, it is widely recognised for its spectacular sunsets, fine wineries, photogenic beaches, cosy cafes, exuberant nightlife, and rich history. Multicoloured cliffs soar out of a sea-drowned caldera, topped by drifts of whitewashed buildings. With its reputation for dazzling panoramas, romantic sunsets, and volcanic-sand beaches, it’s hardly surprising the island is a must-visit place for those who seek serenity in the laps of nature.
