Santorini & Mykonos

The Cyclades islands of Santorini and Mykonos are always popular with our holidaymakers and Summer 2023 is no exception. We’ve had increased demand for island hopping, combining Santorini or Mykonos with other Greek islands such as Andros, Crete and Naxos, giving customers the chance to see the differences and similarities between islands.

Santorini was formed by a volcanic eruption around 1650 BC which resulted in a striking coastline of dark sandy beaches. The isle possesses the most breathtaking views to be found on the Greek islands. Imagine relaxing on an island of idyllic whitewashed villages, blue-domed churches, perfect blue skies and the most incredible sunsets and you’ll be thinking about holidays in Santorini.

Santorini

Perfect for a romantic getaway, Santorini is a popular island to get married on and ideal for honeymoons. The isle is also famous for its archaeological heritage with the Akrotiri Excavation Sites. The main towns of Fira and Kamari have a wide selection of bars and tavernas.

Notable hotels on Santorini include the 5-star Sea Breeze Beach Resort which is part of the Curio Collection by Hilton. Located in the small and quiet resort of Exomitis in the southernmost part of Santorini, the recently opened Sea Breeze Beach Resort is situated on a private, endless beach. 

Mykonos is one of the most cosmopolitan of the Greek islands and is instantly recognisable for its pristine sandy beaches, immaculately whitewashed cube houses and 16th century hilltop windmills.  Elegant boutiques and a flamboyant nightlife have made Mykonos a thrilling destination and a favourite for those who like their holidays to have a bit of VIP style.
