Our top five excursions this summer

VISIT EPHESUS

Wonder through the ruins of ancient Ephesus and gaze in awe at the triumphal Magnesium gate, roman agora and historic marketplaces that gave mighty Ephesus it’s famous trading reputation.

STEP BACK IN TIME

Picture-perfect Milos is a Greek treasure. Discover the most famous beach here, Sarakiniko Beach, known as ‘Moon Beach’ thanks to its lunar landscapes, before heading into the lively island capital of Plaka to dance the night away in a traditional Mykonian taverna.

EXPLORE KNOSSOS

Home to Europe’s oldest civilisation, mighty Knossos was a major source of inspiration for Homer’s legendary Odyssey. Discover the unique architectural ruins of the Venetian and Minoan civilisation in the Heraklion Museum, before exploring the wonder of Knossos Palace.

Acropolis of Lindos

Let’s begin in unusual fashion, with what you won’t see in Rhodes. One of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World once proudly stood here.He was the Colossus of Rhodes and is of course long departed, probably destroyed by an earthquake.

VOLCANIC SANTORINI

Lose yourself in the alluring sunsets and red blooms of Santorini. Visit the craters of Nea Kameni, where the largest eruption in history occurred, before heading back to the island’s main town of Fira to soak up the islands intimate atmosphere under the stars.
