Destinations
Greek Islands
Whitewashed villages, sunset caldera views and lazy tender days.
Greek island itineraries mix iconic islands with lesser-known gems, often combined with Turkey or the Adriatic.
Tender ports
Santorini is a tender port: you reach shore by small boat. Expect queues and plan your return time with margin.
Smart tips
- The cable car in Santorini gets very busy — go early or walk down
- Smaller ships reach islands larger ships cannot
