Athens - Mykonos - Ios - Milos ...and if you're really wanting to do it all Zakynthos too!
Its time to explore Greece! We're going Island Hopping! Get ready to dive it to beautiful, and adventurous week.
This trip has been extremely popular every single time we've done it - and is one of Rachel's absolutely favourite places to go ever (So you know it's good!).
We're going to explore as much as possible from the history of Athens to adventures through the crystal clear waters of Milos & cobbled streets of Mykonos and NEW this year - we're stopping by one of the most iconic and under-rated islands - IOS. Blue Skies, Turquoise Waters & Beautiful sunsets are in our future. How about delicious local cuisine?
Picture this - you and 16 other girls, enjoying the sun on your skin, drinking till 3am on every island you find, and making best friends with the locals for even more giggles!
If 9 nights isn't enough and you're really in for adventure then add 3 extra days and come to Zakynthos to explore the stunning beaches one of the most famous islands! You'll go home with memories to last a life time and enough stories to annoy your friends to death after this trip!
And if you REALLY want to see the domes in Santorini - theres possibly an opportunity to take a day cruise to Santorini from IOS, we can discuss this in our group chat closer to the time.
