2. We should have had contact with all independent tour operators in the event of issues that arose. 3. Finally, I think that the tours should be spread out over the period and not lumped together in the last four days. Perhaps an every other day would have been less taxing. By the way the Tui operated tours were excellent and the Safari tour was also very good.

Very good tour. Accommodation and day tours were great. The major problem were the transfers. Dropped off on the side of the road and told to walk approximately 500 metres to the hotel with no directions, the tour pick-up point was a 10 minute walk from the hotel and finally after waiting for our airport transfer for over an hour at the designated pick-up location had to organise a taxi ourselves. We were refunded the allocated transfer amount not the actual cost of the taxi so out of pocket as well.

Best time to visit Aegean Islands
- Spring 2026
Spring brings perfect conditions for exploring the Greek islands, with moderate temperatures and smaller crowds. Our most popular springtime tours combine Athens sightseeing with island hopping across Mykonos, Naxos and also Santorini. The 11-day premium trips include guided walks through Athens' ancient sites and markets, followed by comfortable ferry journeys between islands. Our travelers particularly enjoy having local experts show them around places like the organic vineyards in Santorini where they taste wines and collect herbs. The village tours in Naxos are consistently rated highly - you'll meet local families, try traditional cooking and learn about island life away from tourist zones. For independent travelers, the self-guided options work well in spring, with reliable transfers and carefully selected hotels that let you explore at your own pace.

- Summer 2026
Summer's the perfect time for our yacht tours - small groups of 8-12 people get to discover quiet harbors and hidden spots you just can't reach by land. The skippers know exactly which secluded coves to visit and when to drop anchor near Santorini's volcano for a swim in the mineral-rich waters. Our land tours make the most of those long summer days by hitting major sites early, then mixing in afternoon swims and evening walks through charming villages. Many of our guests go for the premium packages - they love the special touches like private sunset picnics in Oia and hands-on cooking sessions using fresh ingredients from Naxos' local gardens.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Fall lets you really dig into what makes the Greek islands special. The ferries are quieter, the weather's just right for walking and our island-hopping circuits run smoothly through October. You'll get to explore Paros' mountain villages and Naxos' ancient temples without bumping into summer crowds. This time of year, our guides connect you with local festivals and food producers - you might find yourself tasting fresh olive oil or joining in traditional music evenings. The volcanic tours in Santorini work particularly well in autumn; the air's clear for crater walks and the temperature's perfect for visiting the hot springs. Our photography tours time everything around the soft autumn light, which really brings out the best in those classic Greek island views.

- Winter 2026 / 2027
Winter brings fresh perspectives to Greek island exploration, with several thoughtfully designed tours blending Athens' cultural heritage and island discoveries. The Athens-Santorini combinations span 6 days, giving you time to delve into ancient history before heading south to the islands. Our travelers appreciate the relaxed morning schedules in these quieter months, which are perfect for wandering through the Acropolis and Plaka district. Even in winter, Santorini offers volcano excursions and village exploration, though hot spring access varies by month. The cultural routes through Athens, Paros, Naxos and also Santorini stretch across 9 days, offering deeper connections with island life - you'll discover local tavernas filled with residents and experience genuine Greek hospitality without tourist crowds. Our guests often mention how well-chosen hotels and seamless transfers make winter island-hopping surprisingly easy. The 7-day Classic Greece journeys balance city discoveries with island experiences, and travelers value having indoor options already arranged for days when weather shifts.
