Arrive in Athens
Athens International Airport to your hotel in central Athens, then Plaka and Anafiotika on foot
- Welcome dinner
- Nuit : Athens
Fly into Athens International Airport (ATH), about 35 km east of the centre. A driver meets you in arrivals and takes you to our hotel within walking distance of Plaka and the Acropolis. Plan to land by about 3 pm to join the first walk; the latest arrival time is confirmed with your final itinerary. At about 5 pm your See Sight Tours guide meets the group for a short briefing on the twelve days ahead: how the ferries and luggage work, what to wear at the monasteries, and which mornings start early. Then we walk together through the lanes of Plaka and climb into Anafiotika, the tiny whitewashed quarter built under the north face of the Acropolis in the 19th century by builders from the island of Anafi. From its steps you look across the rooftops to Lycabettus Hill as the light goes.
Soir
The welcome dinner is at a taverna close by, with mezze to share.
Compris
- Pick-up at Athens International Airport (ATH)
- Welcome briefing with your guide
- Evening walk through Plaka and Anafiotika
- Welcome dinner
Temps libre : Free until the 5 pm briefing
Activité : The evening walk is about an hour on stepped lanes.
The Acropolis at opening
The Acropolis, the Acropolis Museum and the National Archaeological Museum
- Petit-déjeuner
- Nuit : Athens
We are at the Acropolis gate for the first timed slot at 8 am, ahead of the cruise groups and the heat. A licensed Athens site guide leads you up through the Propylaea to the Parthenon, the Erechtheion with its porch of Caryatids, and the edge of the rock for the view over the city. We come down the south slope past the Theatre of Dionysus to the Acropolis Museum, where the top-floor gallery sets out the Parthenon frieze in the order it ran around the temple, with the Parthenon itself in view through the glass.
Après-midi
Lunch is yours in Plaka or Koukaki, and the hottest hours are free. At about 4 pm your guide takes anyone who wants to go to the National Archaeological Museum to see the gold from the royal graves of Mycenae, including the mask once called the Mask of Agamemnon, five days before we stand at the graves themselves.
Soir
The evening is free.
Compris
- The Acropolis on the 8 am timed slot with a licensed site guide: the Propylaea, the Parthenon and the Erechtheion
- The Acropolis Museum
- The National Archaeological Museum with your guide in the late afternoon
Option plus facile : Skip the late-afternoon museum and rest at the hotel or in the National Garden.
Option plus active : Climb Lycabettus Hill on foot for sunset, about 30 to 40 minutes up from Kolonaki.
Temps libre : Midday and evening free
Activité : About 3 hours on foot in the morning, on polished marble and uneven paths with no shade on the rock. From November to March the National Archaeological Museum closes mid-afternoon, so we go straight after lunch.
North by Thermopylae to Meteora
Athens to Thermopylae, then Kalambaka below Meteora
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Kalambaka
- Environ 4.5 h de route
We leave Athens at about 8:30 am and head north on the motorway through Boeotia, the sea of the North Euboean Gulf appearing on the right. After about two and a half hours we stop at Thermopylae, where Leonidas and his Spartans held the pass against the Persian army in 480 BC. The coastline has moved several kilometres since, so the narrow pass between mountain and sea is now a plain; the bronze Leonidas monument and the information centre show how it looked.
Après-midi
A sit-down lunch follows in a taverna nearby, then about two hours more across the Thessalian plain to Kalambaka, where the grey pillars of Meteora rise straight behind the town. This is the longest drive of the trip, about four and a half hours at the wheel, and it buys two nights under the rocks instead of a 12-hour return day from Athens.
Soir
We arrive by about 4 pm and the evening is free: walk up into Kastraki, or sit with a drink and watch the rocks turn gold.
Compris
- Drive from Athens to Kalambaka with your guide
- Thermopylae: the Leonidas monument and the information centre
- Sit-down lunch near Thermopylae
Temps libre : Late afternoon and evening free in Kalambaka
Activité : About 4.5 hours of driving in two parts, broken by Thermopylae and a sit-down lunch.
The monasteries of Meteora
Kalambaka to the monasteries of Meteora and back
- Petit-déjeuner
- Nuit : Kalambaka
- Environ 1 h de route
Six monasteries are still lived in on the rocks of Meteora, listed by UNESCO in 1988, and each closes one or two days a week.
Matin
We visit the two or three that are open on your day, starting as the first opens at about 9 am, before the day-trip coaches arrive from Athens around late morning. Typically that means the Great Meteoron, the largest, founded in the 14th century and reached by a stairway cut into the rock; Varlaam, with its frescoed church and the old winch tower once used to haul up monks and supplies; and Rousanou, home to a community of nuns on a lower pillar. A local guide joins your See Sight Tours guide.
Après-midi
We are back in Kalambaka for lunch on your own and a free afternoon out of the heat.
Soir
Before sunset we drive up to a viewpoint on the ridge road to watch the light go down the pillars.
Compris
- Two or three Meteora monasteries with a local guide, entry fees included
- Sunset at a viewpoint on the ridge road
Option plus facile : Visit only St Stephen's, reached by a short bridge with almost no steps, and wait at a cafe for the others.
Option plus active : Walk up the old monks' footpath from Kastraki to the Great Meteoron, about an hour of steep climbing, and meet the group at the top.
Temps libre : Afternoon free
Activité : Up to about 300 steps per monastery. Shoulders and knees covered; women wear a skirt, and wraps are lent at the door.
Over the mountains to Delphi
Kalambaka to Lamia and Amfissa, then Delphi
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Delphi
- Environ 3.5 h de route
Matin
A slower morning, then about three and a quarter hours south: back across the Thessalian plain, over the hills past Lamia, and down through the olive country of Amfissa to Delphi, on the slopes of Mount Parnassus.
Après-midi
We arrive for a sit-down lunch in the village, on a terrace looking down over a valley of olive trees to the Gulf of Corinth at Itea. In the late afternoon, when the coaches from Athens have gone, your guide and a licensed local guide take you through the Delphi Archaeological Museum: the bronze Charioteer, still with his inlaid eyes, the Sphinx of the Naxians on its column, and the friezes from the Siphnian Treasury.
Soir
This is the only single night on the trip, and it is here for a reason: sleeping in Delphi puts us at the sanctuary gate when it opens tomorrow. The evening is free; the village is small and quiet after dark.
Compris
- Drive from Kalambaka to Delphi with your guide
- Sit-down lunch in Delphi
- The Delphi Archaeological Museum with a licensed local guide
Temps libre : Evening free in Delphi
Activité : The Delphi museum is open into the evening in the April to October season; from November it closes mid-afternoon.
Delphi at opening, then Nafplio
Delphi to the Corinth Canal, then Nafplio
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Nafplio
- Environ 3.5 h de route
We are at the sanctuary of Apollo when it opens, at 8 am on most days in the summer timetable, with the hillside cool and nearly empty. Walk up the Sacred Way past the rebuilt Treasury of the Athenians to the Temple of Apollo, where the oracle spoke, then on to the theatre and the stadium at the top of the site, with the view down the valley to the sea. A short walk down the road takes us to the Sanctuary of Athena Pronaia and its round Tholos. We leave by about 11 am for the drive to the Peloponnese, about three and a half hours by Thebes and the motorway, and stop at the Corinth Canal, cut through the isthmus between 1881 and 1893, to look down its sheer rock walls.
Après-midi
Lunch is a sit-down meal near the canal.
Soir
We reach Nafplio, the first capital of modern Greece, by mid-afternoon, with a short evening walk through its old town.
Compris
- The sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi at opening with a licensed local guide: the Sacred Way, the Treasury of the Athenians, the Temple of Apollo, the theatre and the stadium
- The Sanctuary of Athena Pronaia and the Tholos
- Stop at the Corinth Canal
- Sit-down lunch near the canal
- Evening walk in Nafplio old town
Option plus facile : Stop at the theatre and wait in the shade while the others climb to the stadium.
Temps libre : Evening free after the walk
Activité : About 2.5 hours on foot at Delphi, mostly uphill on stone paths and steps. In summer the site opens at 10 am on Tuesdays; on a Tuesday we visit Athena Pronaia first and reach Nafplio later.
Mycenae and Epidaurus
Nafplio to Mycenae, then Epidaurus and back to Nafplio
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Nafplio
- Environ 2 h de route
Mycenae opens at 8 am and we are there for it, about half an hour north of Nafplio, before the heat and the day groups. With a licensed local guide, walk in through the Lion Gate, one of the oldest monumental sculptures in Europe, past Grave Circle A, where Heinrich Schliemann found the gold you saw in Athens, and up to the palace on the summit, with the Argolid plain spread below. Below the citadel we step into the Treasury of Atreus, a beehive tomb roofed with huge stone rings. Then it is about an hour east to Epidaurus, the sanctuary of the healing god Asklepios, and its 4th-century BC theatre, set into a pine-covered hillside. Climb to the top rows while someone below drops a coin on the stage.
Soir
Lunch is a sit-down meal in a village taverna, and we are back in Nafplio by mid-afternoon for a free afternoon and evening.
Compris
- Mycenae at opening with a licensed local guide: the Lion Gate, Grave Circle A, the palace and the Treasury of Atreus
- Epidaurus: the Sanctuary of Asklepios and the theatre
- Sit-down lunch in a village taverna
Option plus facile : At Epidaurus, take a seat in the lower rows of the theatre and skip the walk round the sanctuary.
Option plus active : In the evening light, climb the long stone stair to the Palamidi fortress above Nafplio; locals say it has 999 steps.
Temps libre : Afternoon and evening free in Nafplio
Activité : About 3 hours on foot on uneven ground and steep paths at Mycenae, with little shade.
By ferry to Naxos
Nafplio to Piraeus, then the ferry to Naxos
- Petit-déjeuner, repas du midi et repas du soir
- Nuit : Naxos
- Environ 2 h de route
Matin
After breakfast we drive about two hours back over the isthmus to Piraeus, the port of Athens, and say goodbye to our mainland vehicle. Your guide boards with you, handles the bags and keeps the group together on deck.
Après-midi
We aim for a sailing between late morning and early afternoon; the crossing takes about four to six hours depending on the boat, past the Cyclades of Syros and Paros on the way. Timetables for the season are published in winter or spring and we confirm the exact boat with your final itinerary, never one that needs a pre-dawn start. Door to door it is a long day, about seven to nine hours from Nafplio to Chora, so we bring a packed lunch on board. Chora, the main town of Naxos, climbs from the harbour to a Venetian castle.
Soir
After check-in we walk the causeway to the islet of Palatia for sunset at the Portara, the great marble doorway of a temple to Apollo begun around 530 BC and never finished. Dinner together tonight in Chora.
Compris
- Drive from Nafplio to Piraeus with your guide
- Ferry from Piraeus to Naxos, with a packed lunch
- Sunset at the Portara
- Dinner together in Naxos Chora
Activité : If the meltemi wind or a strike stops the ferry, your guide moves the group to the next sailing or a flight to Naxos.
The mountain villages of Naxos
Naxos Chora to the Tragaea valley, Halki, Apeiranthos and Melanes, then back to Chora
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Naxos
- Environ 1.5 h de route
Naxos is green and farmed, unlike its barer neighbours, and today we drive into its interior with your guide. First the Tragaea valley, where old olive groves fill the floor between the hills and Byzantine chapels sit among the trees. In Halki we visit a kitron distillery, where the island's liqueur is made from the leaves of the citron tree, and taste the three strengths. Higher up, Apeiranthos is a village of marble-paved lanes and stone towers built by Cretan settlers, with its own dialect.
Après-midi
Lunch is a sit-down meal in a village taverna: local cheese, slow-cooked goat or a vegetable dish, and bread from the oven. On the way back we stop at Melanes to see a 6th-century BC kouros, an unfinished marble statue of a young man, still lying in the ancient quarry where it was abandoned. We are back in Chora by about 3 pm, with the rest of the day free.
Compris
- Village day by van with your guide: the Tragaea valley, Halki, Apeiranthos and the Kouros of Melanes
- Kitron tasting at a distillery in Halki
- Sit-down lunch in a village taverna
Temps libre : Afternoon and evening free in Chora or at the beach
Activité : Short walks of up to an hour on village lanes and steps.
A free day on Naxos, or Paros
Naxos, with an optional ferry to Paros and back
- Petit-déjeuner
- Nuit : Naxos
- En traversier
Today is yours. The long sandy beaches of Agios Prokopios and Plaka are a short bus or taxi ride south of Chora, and the water is clear and warm from June.
Matin
Chora itself rewards a slow morning: the lanes of the Kastro, the Archaeological Museum in the old Ursuline school with its Cycladic marble figures, and coffee by the harbour. If you would rather see another island, your guide takes anyone who wants to go on the morning ferry to Paros, under an hour away.
Après-midi
We walk through Parikia to the Panagia Ekatontapiliani, the Church of a Hundred Doors, with parts dating to the 6th century, then cross the island to the fishing harbour of Naoussa for lunch on your own by the boats. We are back on Naxos by late afternoon.
Soir
Whichever you choose, the evening is free, with plenty of tavernas in Chora and by the water.
Compris
- Day trip to Paros with your guide for those who want it: return ferry, Parikia and the Panagia Ekatontapiliani, and Naoussa harbour
Activités en option
- A guided walk up Mount Zas, at 1,004 m the highest point of the Cyclades, about 3 hours up and down (extra cost, booked through your guide)
- Boat trips to the Small Cyclades from Naxos (extra cost)
Option plus facile : Stay on Naxos for a beach day at Agios Prokopios or Plaka.
Option plus active : Hike Mount Zas with a local walking guide in the cool of the morning.
Temps libre : Whole day free, or join the Paros trip
Santorini and the caldera rim
Naxos to Santorini by ferry, then Fira to Imerovigli on foot
- Petit-déjeuner
- Nuit : Santorini
- En traversier
Matin
A mid-morning ferry takes us south to Santorini, a crossing of about two hours, and the view as the boat enters the caldera is one to be on deck for: red, black and white cliffs about 300 m high, with the villages of Fira and Oia strung along the top like snow. A vehicle meets us at the port of Athinios and climbs the hairpins to our hotel in or near Fira, about three hours door to door from Naxos.
Après-midi
Lunch is yours in Fira. In the late afternoon your guide walks the group north along the caldera path, about 3 km, through Firostefani to Imerovigli, the highest village on the rim, with the volcanic islands of Nea and Palea Kameni in the bay below.
Soir
We watch the sunset from Imerovigli or Skaros Rock, rather than in the crush at Oia, and take a taxi back to Fira. The evening is free in town.
Compris
- Ferry from Naxos to Santorini
- Transfer from Athinios port to the hotel
- Caldera walk from Fira through Firostefani to Imerovigli with your guide
- Sunset at Imerovigli
Option plus facile : Walk only as far as Firostefani, about 1 km, and take a taxi on to Imerovigli for sunset.
Option plus active : Keep going from Imerovigli to Oia on the full caldera trail, about 7 km more and 2 to 3 hours, and see Oia after dark when the crowds have gone; we arrange the taxi back.
Temps libre : Early afternoon and evening free
Activité : The caldera path is paved but rises and falls on steps; there is little shade.
Akrotiri and a sail in the caldera
Fira to Akrotiri, then a sail to Nea Kameni, the hot springs and Thirasia
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du soir
- Nuit : Santorini
- Environ 45 min de route
We are at Akrotiri when it opens at 8 am. Under a modern roof lie the streets of a Bronze Age town buried by the great eruption of Thera in the 17th or 16th century BC, its two- and three-storey houses still standing to the upper floors, with stairs, storage jars and drains in place. Your licensed local guide explains how the town was found and why no bodies have turned up.
Après-midi
We are back in Fira by late morning for lunch on your own and a free middle of the day. In the mid-afternoon we board a sailing boat in the caldera: a walk up the black lava of Nea Kameni to its crater, a swim to the warm, iron-red water of the hot springs off Palea Kameni, and a stop at quiet Thirasia across the bay.
Soir
We sail back as the sun sets over the caldera, then share a farewell dinner in Fira.
Compris
- Akrotiri at opening with a licensed local guide
- Caldera sail: Nea Kameni crater walk, the hot springs and a stop at Thirasia
- Farewell dinner in Fira
Activités en option
- The Museum of Prehistoric Thera in Fira, with the frescoes and finds from Akrotiri (extra cost)
Option plus facile : Stay on the boat at Nea Kameni and skip the swim to the hot springs.
Temps libre : Middle of the day free
Activité : The Nea Kameni crater walk is about 1 hour up and back on loose volcanic gravel. Swimming at the springs is optional.
Fly to Athens, trip ends
Santorini to Athens International Airport by air
- Petit-déjeuner
- En avion
Matin
A last breakfast with the caldera below, then a short transfer to Santorini's airport (JTR) for the included morning flight to Athens, about 45 minutes in the air instead of a day on the ferry. Your guide flies with the group, collects the bags with you at Athens International Airport (ATH) and sees you to your connections before saying goodbye around late morning.
Soir
That leaves the afternoon and evening open for flights home to Canada, the US and elsewhere, without a second day of island transport. If you would like more time in Athens, we can book extra nights at a central hotel and a transfer into the city, so you can see the Ancient Agora, the Benaki Museum or Cape Sounion at your own pace. Flight times for the season are confirmed with your final itinerary; if the schedule moves, we move the group with it.
Compris
- Transfer to Santorini airport (JTR)
- Flight from Santorini to Athens (ATH) with your guide
Activités en option
- Extra nights in Athens with a transfer into the city (extra cost)
Activité : Book your flight home from Athens to leave after about 3 pm.

- Excursion d'une journée

Faune et météo : Spring and autumn are warm and clear; July and August reach about 40 C on the mainland and the meltemi wind can delay Aegean ferries, so we start early, rest at midday and keep a backup sailing or flight in mind.

Questions
Les prix indiqués dans ces réponses s'appliquent à compter du 1er janv. 2027. Offre du Vendredi fou : 15 % de rabais sur le prix en petit groupe pour les demandes reçues au plus tard le 1er déc. 2026. À partir de CAD 6,400 par personne. Du 2 déc. au 31 déc. : à partir de CAD 6,930. À compter du 1er janv. 2027 : à partir de CAD 7,530.
What does the price include?
Twelve nights in central hotels, 12 breakfasts, 6 lunches and 3 dinners, airport transfers in Athens, a private vehicle and driver on the mainland, three ferries, the caldera sail, the flight from Santorini to Athens, your See Sight Tours guide throughout, licensed local guides at the major sites, and every entrance fee for the sights in the day plan.
How big is the group?
The small-group trip runs with 7 to 12 guests. That is small enough to hear the guide on the Acropolis, fit around one table at lunch, and board a ferry without a scramble. If you want fewer, the private version is for your party only.
Does the same guide stay with us on the islands?
Yes. Your See Sight Tours guide is with the same group from the welcome briefing in Athens to the flight back from Santorini, including every ferry and the free days on Naxos. Licensed local guides join at the Acropolis, Meteora, Delphi, Mycenae and Akrotiri, because Greek law requires them inside archaeological sites.
How fit do I need to be?
Moderate. Most days have 2 to 4 hours on foot at sites with uneven marble, gravel and steps in the sun, and each Meteora monastery has up to about 300 steps. Every demanding day has an easier choice, such as St Stephen's monastery with almost no steps, or waiting in the shade while others climb.
I'm travelling solo. What does a room of my own cost?
A room of your own costs CAD 1,505 more than the shared price on the small-group trip. That figure is shown before you request to book, with nothing added later. Solo travellers make up a good part of small groups, and you join the same dinners, walks and ferries as everyone else.
When is the best time to go?
April to June and September to October bring warm days, swimmable sea from June and lighter crowds. July and August are very hot on the mainland, up to about 40 C, and the meltemi wind can disrupt ferries. From November to March many island hotels and some ferry routes close or cut back.
What happens if a ferry is cancelled?
Your guide moves the group to the next sailing or a flight and handles the rebooking. Strong meltemi winds in summer and occasional strikes can stop Greek ferries. Naxos has three nights, so a delay costs part of a free day rather than a site, and the trip ends with a flight, not a ferry.
Why is Olympia not included?
Fitting Olympia into 13 days would mean another one-night stop and about four more hours of driving, or cutting a night from Naxos. We chose Mycenae and Epidaurus from a two-night base in Nafplio instead. If Olympia matters to you, ask us to quote a private departure with it added.
What should I wear to the Meteora monasteries?
Cover your shoulders and knees. Men wear long trousers; women are asked to wear a skirt over trousers or a long skirt, and wraps are lent free at each monastery door. Bring shoes with grip for the stone stairways. Photography is not allowed inside the churches.
Do I need a visa for Greece?
Canadian, US, UK and Australian citizens do not need a visa for stays of up to 90 days in any 180 in the Schengen area. Your fingerprints and photo are taken at the border under the EU Entry/Exit System. The ETIAS travel authorisation is not yet in force; we tell you what applies on your dates when you book.
Can we travel privately or on our own dates?
Yes. Besides the small group, the trip comes as a private trip for your party only, on a date you choose, from CAD 13,555 per person. If you would rather travel independently on your own dates, ask us from the dates section and we will quote the hotels, ferries and local guides for you.
How does booking work?
Pick a date, send a request to book and we confirm within 24 hours; no payment is taken at that point. Nothing is charged until we have confirmed your trip. The small group starts from CAD 7,530 per person sharing a room, taxes included, and a room of your own adds CAD 1,505.
