Greece (Athens, Mykonos, Santorini, Ios)

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Greece is a southeastern European country spanning the southern Balkans and over 6,000 islands across the Aegean and Ionian Seas, drawing millions of visitors each year. Athens, its ancient capital, is home to iconic landmarks like the Acropolis and Parthenon, alongside a buzzing modern food and nightlife scene. The Cycladic islands offer some of the Mediterranean's most dramatic scenery — Santorini is famed for its volcanic caldera, whitewashed clifftop villages, and sunsets over Oia, while Mykonos is known for its cosmopolitan atmosphere, golden beaches, and legendary beach clubs. Ios strikes a balance between the two, attracting younger travellers with its lively nightlife, hilltop Chora village, and quieter sandy beaches like Mylopotas.

Self-Launched Best of Greece: Athens, Mykonos, Santorini & Ios Island Hop

A self-launched, backpacker-friendly version of Travel Talk's 10-day "Best of Greece" group tour. You'll cover the same route — Athens' Acropolis and ancient core, then ferries through the Cyclades to Mykonos, Santorini and Ios — but booking your own hostels/guesthouses, using public ferries (Blue Star & SeaJets), and joining self-bookable walking tours and boat trips via GetYourGuide or directly with local operators. Same islands, same sunsets, roughly a third of the price of the guided package. Costs are approximate and assume dorm beds or simple private rooms, shoulder-season travel and plenty of gyros.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Greece (Athens, Mykonos, Santorini, Ios) yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Eat the strangest thing on the menu every single day for a week and document the regret."
