Santorini

This outstanding adventure includes five island visits to some of the most fantastic islands in the Aegean. In addition to some of the most extraordinary sights of the region, such as the Pythagorean Tunnel on Samos, the Sacred Island of Delos near Mykonos, and the Caldera of Santorini, these islands feature some of the best beaches to be found anywhere in the Mediterranean, together with amazing natural beauty and outstanding architecture. These destinations have also been selected in combination because of the unique diversity of their history, their ambience, and their appearance. No two are alike!
