Itinerary

Your transport from the airport will deliver you to the Port of Piraeus on the Aegean Sea. Meet the captain of your home for the week, a luxury yacht, complete with crew to round out this exclusive, small group tour.

After a safety overview of the yacht, set out of port for your first dinner at sea while you skirt the twinkling coastline of Athens enjoying the brilliant sunset.

Begin your day with a morning swim on one of the secluded beaches on Meganisi. Follow with a fresh, healthy breakfast prepared by the professional chef on board the yacht. 

This morning is for winding down – adjusting to your vacation clock. Relax on the deck, try out the snorkel gear, hike, or chill on the beach. 

Sail to the Port of Vathy, the primary city on the island. Enjoy a relaxing dinner with a spectacular water view. 

All aboard – time to set off to your next amazing island.

Kalamos is a golden sand beach surrounded by olive tree-laden cliffs, making it the perfect spot to grab the snorkeling gear and jump into the crystal clear waters. 

After a sumptuous al fresco lunch, your group will visit the Kalamos Island Biological Field Station to learn about sustainable fisheries management in the Greek Islands. The goal of the field station is to “educate and inspire people from around the world with respect to sustainability and nature conservation.” 

Dine on board this evening after a refreshing swim before you set sail for Ithaca.

Ithaca will help you get your land legs back as you climb to the Monastery of Panagia Kamariotissa and experience the breathtaking view of the Ionian Sea. Later, hike the 6th-century town of Alalcomenaeus and explore the Cave of the Nymphs. 

Sail out to one of the beautiful beaches Ithaca has to offer and swim in the blue-green water. Enjoy a Mediterranean dinner aboard the yacht while feasting on the view of Ithaca from the water. Marvel at the stars in the clear blue Ionian sky as you set sail for Kefalonia.

Your day will begin at the 150-million-year-old Drogarati Cave where you will marvel at the stalactites and stalagmites. Next up, a short hike up to Melissani for a boat tour of this spectacular lake cave.

Lunch today will be at a vineyard. The pairings with local cheeses, charcuterie and pita coupled with the slow, relaxing pace will have you sighing with delight.

Bask in the glorious sun this afternoon at one of Kefalonia’s stunning beaches.

Today, awake to the most beautiful beach on your journey. Spend your day drifting with the waves as the anchored yacht rides the gentle swells.  Swim, snorkel, relax in the soft sand or just tan on the bow. The day is yours to relax, enjoy and reflect.

Your farewell on board dinner will be a feast from the Ionian Sea.  

As the waves rock you to sleep, you’ll know you have found your happy place.

Before breakfast, enjoy a final swim. Sadly you must disembark for your return home.

Let your cares wash away as you swim, sun, and snorkel in the blue-green crystal clear waters of the Greek Ionian Sea islands. Enjoy your adventures in travel with unforgettable vistas of sandy beaches, fascinating rock formations, tiled roofs and whitewashed building cities, which will be etched in your memories forever.
