Meteora is one of the largest and most important complexes of Eastern Orthodox monasteries in Greece, second only to Mount Athos.

The six monasteries are built on natural sandstone rock pillars, at the northwestern edge of the Plain of Thessaly near the Pineios river and the Pindus Mountains, in central Greece.

An international “jet-set” known for its beautiful sandy beaches, hundreds of tiny white chapels and incredible nightlife. Stroll around the streets of the capital that are considered the most beautiful of the Greek islands and enjoy the great nightlife.

In the morning, arrival at the fantastic island of Santorini, site of the beautiful postcard landscapes

and the blue-domed churches. One of the jewels of the small five-island volcanic archipelagos is undoubtedly Santorini. Santorini was created due to a volcanic eruption culminating in the explosion of a volcano’s caldera, hence its rugged landscapes dotted with towering cliffs.

Santorini’s capital, Fira, with its whitewashed houses, narrow streets and sidewalk cafes clinging to a cliff, sits at the top of the beautiful island where you can take in gorgeous views of the bay. Discover the Santorini villages that retain their authenticity, with beautiful blue and white buildings and barren volcanic rocks. It is a very fascinating and picturesque island. A magical place that has nothing to do with the rest of the Greek islands, a place to spread the peaceful and hospitable character of its people.

The sunset from the Caldera and the Greek and Mediterranean food in the islands of restaurants and taverns are not to be missed.

In the morning arrival in Rhodes, also known as the island of Rosas. Considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the statue of the Colossus of Rhodes showed sailors the entrance to the ancient port. The medieval city and the famous Castle of the Crusader Knights of the Order of Saint John are listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, being the second best preserved medieval city. Do not miss it!
