“Life is short, the world is wide, and I wanna make some memories.” – Sophie – Mamma Mia The Movie

On our Gorgeous Greece Tour in 2026, we will not be visiting Santorini or Mykonos.

While these destinations have their charm, we’ve found them to be overwhelmingly populated by cruise ship tourists, making the environment congested and detracting from the authentic experience we aim to provide.

Moreover, Mykonos is renowned as a party island, focusing on beach clubs and nightlife, which may not align with everyone’s interests.

That said, we encourage those keen on exploring these islands to arrange a visit either before or after this tour, as they can easily be reached by a short flight or ferry.
