Greece – Love in the Aegean Sea (11 Days)

Meet at the airport for your flight to Athens, the romantic capital of Greece and the land of mythology.

Arrive in Athens and head straight to Delphi, the cultural heart of Greece. Known as the sacred mountain and the centre of the ancient world, Delphi is home to the famous Oracle. Visit the Temple of Apollo and the Delphi Museum, which houses priceless relics, including the Omphalos — the stone marking the centre of the universe.
Overnight: V Hotel or similar

After breakfast, travel to northern Greece to explore Meteora, famous for its towering rock pillars and isolated medieval monasteries perched high above the ground — a sight so breathtaking it feels otherworldly. The name “Meteora” means “suspended in the air.” About a thousand years ago, hermit monks settled here, climbing these peaks with ladders and ropes to live in caves for prayer and solitude. In 1988, Meteora was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, recognized for both natural beauty and cultural significance.
