Detailed Description

Since the majority of tourists flock to Santorini and other over-saturated islands, you can look forward to a much less crowded island haven with this 7-day tour of Greece’s Rhodes. Your island retreat will begin when you arrive in Rhodes. Your first evening will provide you with a segway tour of the Old Town with a private guide. The following morning will find you on a tour that will allow you to indulge in the thermal spa treatments at Kallithea Springs, to witness the captivating collection of butterflies in Butterfly Valley, and to marvel at the majesty of Mt. Filerimos. Day three will lead you to the spectacular wonders of Symi Island on a sailing excursion.

Day four will lead you to some of Rhodes’ breathtaking bays. While you sail to each bay on a yacht, you will have the chance to relax at sea. On day five, you will paddle through the sea in a kayak. After your kayaking adventure, you will spend the evening learning how to cook a Greek meal from a local master chef. A private oceanside yoga session will mark the beginning of your sixth and final full day in Greece. After striking several poses and finding your center, your guide will lead you on a scenic hike to discover the best views of the lovely city of Lindos.

Throughout your island escape, you will stay in luxurious accommodations and have every detail of your vacation handled, including all private transfers. Nearly everything about this itinerary is customizable, so you can further adjust it when in Greece to better suit your moods and interests.

Greece Honeymoon Review: Athens, Paros, Santorini, Crete, Jeep Tour, Byzantine Hike, Sunset Experience, 14-Day Trip

Our trip to Greece was absolutely incredible! We had high hopes for a great vacation and the actual trip far exceeded our hopes.

Zicasso's travel designer planned our two-week honeymoon in Greece (Athens, Paros, Santorini, and Crete) and it was absolutely incredible! All the sites were absolutely gorgeous and the activities planned were great, with amazing tour guides. We had private pick-up and drop-off on travel days, as well as for any of the tours provided. She was very responsive to any questions we had and helped accommodate anything we wanted to change in the itinerary. Everything was meticulously planned and there were really no issues that we ran into.

All the hotels were fantastic, all of them four or five stars and within our budget. They were all beautiful and had great service in desirable locations. We would definitely utilize this travel agency again, especially our agent! We would 10/10 recommend. We made unforgettable memories on our trip, all thanks to the travel company.

Greece Travel Review: Athens, Beaches, 10 Nights

Zicasso's trip coordinator and the rest of the travel company's team were amazing to work with. We had a wonderful trip. She was very helpful in booking accommodations, transfers, and activities, and even suggested restaurants in the towns we were staying in! We could not have asked for a better trip that was more curated to what we wanted to do and the types of places we wanted to stay. I highly recommend her and the travel company and would use them again (and again!).
