Experience the Magic of the Greek islands !!! As seen on Getaway Nowhere else in the world gives you the same mix of beauty, atmosphere, nightlife, food, history, sun and sea. Island hopping is visiting a selection of islands using local ferries. Most small islands can be fully explored in a few days. Without undue rush you can enjoy several in two weeks. Each island is unique. Visit stunningly beautiful Santorini. Here the whitewashed town clings hundreds of feet up the sheer cliffs of an extinct volcano that erupts from the Mediterranean. Enjoy cosmopolitan Myconos, its timeless windmills a backdrop to a sophisticated atmosphere and great beaches. There is Ios, the ultimate party island and historic Rhodes where the Crusaders built their castle. Or choose Crete, home of one of the worlds first great civilisations and a fantastic place for hiking and touring. We take care of Greece’s fickle ferry system, allowing you to hop between the islands with the minimum of fuss. There is no battle for accommodation, your reservation is confirmed, even at the peak of the season. Inclusions for all passes: * Transfer from Athens hotel to Piraeus port * All ferry passages as per itinerary * Hotel accommodation with breakfast * All port taxes, service charges and local taxes Please note that all ferries mentioned from Athens depart from and return to Piraeus port. Ferries are subject to schedule changes due to weather conditions and unforeseen circumstances. If there is no ferry service between two islands or service does not operate due to weather or other conditions supplement for domestic flights may apply.   Recommended stay: The passes are designed to allow minimum time on the islands but we recommend the purchase of extra nights to make a stay of at least 3 nights on each island to fully enjoy the atmosphere of the islands.   Which pass to choose: Each island is different and it is impossible to say which island is nicer or more worth the visit then the other. We recommend a visit to several in order to be able to enjoy the variety but if you have limited time it is more practical and economical to stay longer on 1 island then to visit many without sufficient time to fully explore them.   What sets us apart: With our selection of passes your hotels are confirmed at the time of booking hence you know exactly where you will stay and the facilities you will enjoy at your hotels. Please note that some island hopping providers may confirm hotels of certain category without the name so only when you arrive will you find out what you really get. Hotels out in remote areas are usually less popular.   Ferry duration: Most passes include standard ferry which sometimes take a long time (see map attached) please note that should you wish to reduce travelling time we allow upgrade to hydrofoil or more comfortable VIP, business class or A class seat at an extra cost.   Islands transfers: In order to keep prices low and suite those who may wish to use public transportations, transfers on the islands are not included in the prices listed. We strongly recommend to add them as it is quite difficult (sometimes impossible) to find a taxi especially in peak season and street names are not used on many islands so it can be quite a challenge to locate hotels.   Choose one from the proposed hotels classes. The hotels have been carefully selected to satisfy every taste and budget. We have paid attention especially to the location of the hotels to assure its convenience to the popular attractions. All hotels offer rooms with private facilities. For more details and description refer to the island pages or contact our office.
