Both the Greek islands of Crete and Santorini are famous the world over for beaches, nightlife and the sheer beauty of both the geography and what thousands of years of civilization have left behind.
In such a short holiday, it would be impossible to cover all that these gems of the Southern Aegean have to offer, but our carefully crafted and researched itineraries allow you to discover the most beautiful and magical aspects of each.
From Minoan ruins to secluded beaches on Crete, to stunning white houses, perched on the edge of vertiginous cliffs on Santorini, this is a walking holiday for both archaeological buffs and avid hikers alike.
Our hikes and walks are chosen to remain far from the crowds and close to the authentic Crete, meeting shepherds, eating in small tavernas, (local cafes), shaded by ancient plane trees and swimming in the warm, translucent waters of the Libyan Sea.
Santorini, one of the world’s most magical and beautiful islands:
Lovingly restored traditional houses, converted into luxury accommodation, will be our home for three nights.
Exploring Santorini by day, our evenings will be spent admiring the sunsets from our private Jacuzzi or sipping local wine from our terraces. One free afternoon and one free day should give you ample time to either shop in some quaint boutiques or enjoy a cable-car ride down to the old habour, enjoying a meal of freshly caught fish.
Two short hikes will allow for great vistas out towards the caldera and to the main town of Thira, using ancient trails meandering through tiny hamlets and enjoying the abundance of wildflowers.
