Mykonos
Day 2 · Mykonos
An early transfer to Piraeus for the ferry to Mykonos, where you are met and taken to your hotel. Spend the afternoon on one of the beaches, and the evening in town.
Day 3 · Mykonos
Wander the cobbled lanes of Chora, the island's main town, past whitewashed houses with bright doors and bougainvillea. The archaeological, folklore and maritime museums are close by, and Little Venice is the place for a drink at sunset.
Day 4 · Mykonos
A free day to explore the small villages around the island, or simply to stay by the water.
Paros
Day 5 · Paros
A morning transfer to the high-speed ferry and a short crossing to Paros, where you are met at the port. Paros is relaxed and less crowded than Mykonos; start with Kolymbithres beach in the bay of Naoussa, where wind and sea have shaped the granite into smooth forms.
Day 6 · Paros
A free day for fishing harbours, whitewashed villages, beaches and long lunches at a taverna.
