10 days Athens round-trip with Topdeck
Overview
When we say ‘Greek Island hopper’, you say… Endless beaches? Ridiculously blue waters? Perpetual sunshine? Well, yeah, all those things are great. Obviously. But our Greek Islands trip covers all the givens… and more. More ancient wonders. More eye-candy sunsets. More fisherman-chic goodness. Plate smashing. Greek dancing. Schmoozing with the locals. And with us, you won’t just see it. You’ll do it. One ‘opa!’ at a time.

Itinerary
Helloooo, Athens! Cue epic adventures, crystal-clear water and more gyros than your fat pants can handle. Think: 4am kebab – but better. Gather ‘round Spartans! Tonight we'll meet the gang and dine Greek style: brace yourself for a legendary included group dinner at a local eatery.
MEALS: Dinner.
Tick off your ancient must-dos today on a stroll with your local Trip Leader. See the likes of Monastiraki Square, the ruins of the library of Hadrian, Filopappou Hill (for spectacular views over Athens and the Acropolis) and Syntagma Square for the changing of the guards. Then: delve deeper into these archeological sites with an afternoon of free time – the mighty Acropolis is waiting. Ready to dial up your ancient history quota? Jump on an optional afternoon trip to Cape Sounion and Attica. Or spend your free time hunting down the best Greek donut shop in Athens. And this evening? It’s all yours. We rec finding local haunt for some seriously good saganaki – it’s cheese, it’s fried, it’s goddam delicious.

MEALS: Breakfast.
OPTIONAL EXTRAS: Half day trip to Cape Sounion and Attica: from €70 (lunch included)
We’re not going to lie, this morning’s an early one – but it’s going to be oh-so-worth it! If Athens invented democracy, Mykonos pioneered the beach party that followed. As a group, we’ll hit up the windmills in Little Venice for THAT photo, check out the white-washed shop fronts of Old Town and make a mental note of all the beachfront cocktail bars to check out later. Then: the rest is up to you! Ever heard of Paradise Beach? It’s where Europe goes to party. ‘Nough said.
INCLUDED TODAY: Ferry to Mykonos | Orientation walk of Mykonos town with Trip Leader.
MEALS: Breakfast.
A free day lazing on Mykonos’ soft sandy beaches? Yes please. If you’re up for it, spend your day at a Greek cooking class. Droolworthy dishes and local history = completed. Or lace up those Nikes for an included hike around Paradise Beach. It’s 100% up to you. Looking for some local inspo? Your Trip Leader’s more clued-up than the Cluedo World Champion ‘96. Make the most of it!
INCLUDED TODAY: Paradise Beach hike with Trip Leader.
MEALS: Breakfast.
OPTIONAL EXTRAS: Greek cooking class: from €150.
Say goodbye to Mykonos – we’re hopping over to Paros this morning. Expect: more white-and-blue coloured paradise. Get your bearings around Parikia (aka Paros’ capital) before cutting loose to do whatever you want. Get your architecture fix at the Church of 100 Doors. Explore the cobblestone streets in Naoussa. Or grab some chill time at Kolimbithres Beach. Options, options...
INCLUDED TODAY: Orientation walk of Parikia with Trip Leader.
MEALS: Breakfast
Oh, what’s that? Free time to do your own thing? We love to see it. Soak up the beach vibes. Settle in at a taverna. Or jump on the bus to Lefkes for some memory-making views. Want to explore a little deeper? There’s a full day trip to Naoussa, Kolymbithres beach and the church of Ekatontapiliani on offer. And a wine-tasting experience with a local guide, snacks and a swim stop all in. Tonight? We’re dining like locals with an included group meal, so prepare to dig into the good stuff.

Hop back on the ferry: the blue-domed cliffside houses of your Insta feed await in Santorini – but there’s no filter necessary. Get the tour of Fira with your in-the-know Trip Leader (the side of the island with the best views). Then: it’s time to make your friends back home jealous with that sunset pic. Luckily for you, we’re no rookies when it comes to picking the best spot. So settle in, this is going to be one to remember. Finally: it's time for another included dinner with the group. Get ready to stuff your face with alllll the local bites.
INCLUDED TODAY: Orientation walk of Fira with Trip Leader.

On today’s agenda? OPTIONS. Get your fill of blue-domed churches, rustic windmills and whitewashed houses with an adventure around the island. Or sign up for a full-day volcano excursion, starting with a sail in a traditional caldera before getting your hike on – volcano style. And just in case your iPhone gallery wasn’t filled last night, you could even join an Oia sunset tour later. Best day ever? We’re not surprised.
MEALS: Breakfast.
OPTIONAL EXTRAS: Full-day volcano excursion and Oia sunset tour (private caldera, transfers, lunch, guide and cable car tickets included): from €135.
Whip out your camera and snap those final pics – it’s your last morning in Santorini. Disclaimer: this afternoon we’ve got a lengthy ferry ride back to Athens to finish off our island-hopping adventure. But sometimes it’s about the journey, right? We’ll be back in Athens later this eve for our last night of the trip *sob*.
MEALS: Breakfast.
After breakfast, it’s time to say goodbye. Try not to get too emotional – you could be an ugly crier. Or why not keep the good times rolling in Athens with our post (or pre) tour activity option? Think: a guided stroll around the city’s incredible Acropolis with a local expert. It’s available to book via ‘Your Topdeck Experience’ in the app when you book your chosen trip. Just so you know – you can also enjoy this activity before your trip begins, too.
