Why This Trip Stands Out

This solo-only Greece itinerary blends famous island scenery with shared experiences that make meeting people feel natural. You will start in Athens, travel by ferry through Tinos and Naxos, visit Mykonos for the day and finish along Santorini’s caldera.

  • Designed exclusively for solo travelers age 18 and older.
  • Included arrival transfer, Athens cooking class and guided visits to the Acropolis, Ancient Agora and Parthenon.
  • A food-focused day in Tinos plus a day trip to Mykonos.
  • Flexible time in Tinos and Naxos for beaches, cafés and optional activities.
  • A scenic caldera walk from Fira toward Oia in Santorini.

Sample Itinerary

Days 1–2 | Athens

Arrive in time for the included transfer and welcome meeting. Meet the group during a hands-on Greek cooking class, then explore the Acropolis, Parthenon and Ancient Agora with a local guide.

Days 3–5 | Tinos & Mykonos

Travel by ferry to Tinos for a walking food tour and time to enjoy the island at your own pace. Take a day trip to Mykonos for an orientation walk and free time before returning to Tinos.

Days 6–7 | Naxos

Continue by ferry to Naxos. Get oriented in the old town, then choose how to spend a flexible day around the beaches, cafés and island sights.

Days 8–9 | Santorini

Finish in Santorini with a guided caldera walk and time for a final dinner with your group. The tour ends the following morning.
