Olympic Holidays adds three NEW Island-Hopping Experiences to their portfolio for 2024...
Santorini & Milos
Nestled amidst the azure waters, Milos and Santorini beckon you to experience an Aegean escapade like no other.
Santorini is famous for its sunsets, crystalline beaches, and iconic, white-washed architecture clinging to dramatic cliffs - a destination that draws people back time and time again. But beyond its aesthetic wonders, this island carries a rich history, a vibrant culinary scene, and an inviting spirit, making it a must-visit destination. Twin this with Milos, just a 2hr ferry ride away, the island boasts dramatic landscapes, serene beaches, and traditional charm. Milos stands as a hidden gem within the Cyclades archipelago. Here, the sunsets paint the sky in enchanting hues, the crystal-clear waters are perfect for cooling down, and every corner of the island is steeped history.
Olympic Holidays is offering an 11-night holiday from £1419 per person based on 2 people travelling. The package includes a 1 night stay at the 4* Aria-Lito Mansion, Santorini on a Bed & Breakfast basis, a 5 night stay at the 3* Glaronisia Hotel, Milos on a Bed & Breakfast basis and a 4 night stay at the 3* Castro Hotel And Suites, Santorini on a Bed & Breakfast basis .

Combine bustling Athens bursting with ancient history and the charming village of Poros and its beautiful surroundings.
Begin your island hop adventure in alluring Athens, where thousands of years of history is seamlessly mixed with the fun and comfort of the 21st century. Vibrant and historic, Athens is filled with delectable restaurants, from traditional tavernas to Michelin star dining, bustling markets, welcoming bars and cafes, and picturesque parks, which sit amidst awe-inspiring ancient monuments and breath-taking vistas. Then, just 1hr ferry ride away, your adventure continues on the beautiful island Poros where, on arrival, you’ll be greeted with the bell tower of a lovely white church on a picturesque hillside of cypress trees and red-roofed houses. This lush, green island is filled with beautiful bays and lovely beaches, and covered in both pine and olive trees, and beautiful lemon groves, with a charming town and a harbour lined with friendly tavernas and bars, offering delicious delicacies.

Explore these iconic and beautiful islands.
Mykonos is the great glamour island of Greece and flaunts its sizzling St-Tropez-meets-Ibiza style. It is the perfect place to dance the night away at a beach party under twinkling stars. It’s a hedonistic island, offering fantastic retail therapy with the loveliest designer boutiques in the main town and superb bars, restaurants and hotels. Then why not hop on a 40min ferry to Paros, one of the best kept secrets of Greece, the island is purely Cycladic, with beautiful blue tables and seats on the walkways, white houses and the magnificent churches with blue roofs perched on top. Paros is home to 40 beaches, serene villages, countless restaurants, and trendy bars. If the nightlife is for you, you won't be disappointed, with Paros boasting a fantastic atmosphere once the sun goes down. Away from the sea, there is a butterfly valley and mountain that offer unparalleled views of the surrounding islands. And to end the trip, head to Santorini (just under 2hrs on the ferry), renowned for spectacular sunsets, stunning beaches, and volcanic beauty - incredible Santorini curves around a giant, breath-taking lagoon in the Cyclades Islands. If you approach Santorini from the water, it's hard not to be awed by the sheer cliffs that soar above a turquoise sea. Imagine a relaxing get away on an island of idyllic whitewashed villages, blue-domed churches, perfect blue skies, and the most incredible sunsets, and you'll be picturing a holiday in Santorini.
Olympic Holidays offer a 9-night ‘Mykonos, Paros & Santorini) island hopping itinerary from £1,760pp. Price includes 3 nights on each island - Mykonos, Poros & Santorini as well as flights from London and all ferries and transfers, departing Summer 2024.
