Athens & Santorini Vacation: Exploring Greece’s Best Hotspots

If you're considering a trip to Greece, look no further than Zicasso. Our travel expert planned an unforgettable journey for our family; Athens, Mykonos, and Santorini, and every detail was executed with care, expertise, and passion. 

From the moment we arrived in Athens, we were immersed in the country’s warm hospitality. Our agent made sure we had the perfect balance of sightseeing and relaxation. The historical sites in Athens, like the Acropolis and the ancient Agora, were must-sees.

Mykonos is vibrant yet relaxed. The beaches were beautiful. Every meal on this trip was a highlight. Fresh seafood, local cheeses, olive oil, and delicious pastries—each bite told a story of Greece’s deep culinary heritage.

In Santorini, we were captivated by the island’s charm—whitewashed buildings, breathtaking sunsets, and the deep blue Aegean Sea. We visited traditional villages, giving us a glimpse into the rich cultural traditions that are still very much alive.

Throughout the trip, what stood out most—beyond the stunning landscapes and ancient history—was the friendliness of the Greek people. Their warmth and pride in their culture made every moment feel welcoming and genuine.

Our agent didn’t just plan a vacation—he created an experience rooted in history, tradition, and hospitality. I can’t recommend him and Zicasso highly enough.

This was the best trip ever!

We traveled to Crete, Santorini, Paros, and Athens. Zicasso's travel agents arranged everything to perfection and followed up throughout the entire trip. We never had to wait on transportation to any of the amazing experiences they’d arranged. It was truly the best trip we’ve ever taken. All accommodations were top shelf and in the most beautiful locations. If you’re planning a trip to Greece, do yourself a favor and put your trust in Zicasso!

We had the most amazing trip to Greece, thanks to Zicasso's travel company! We spent time on Naxos, Santorini, and in Athens. The boutique hotels they booked for us were, in my opinion, five-star hotels. They were located in great, beautiful locations, the rooms were clean and spacious, and the staff at each were friendly and helpful. They also planned the perfect excursions for us based on information I shared about our family prior to the trip.

The biggest compliment I have for the travel company is how responsive and helpful they were prior to and throughout the whole trip. Due to a significant delay in our international flight, we were going to miss our connecting flight to Naxos. They rebooked us before we even arrived in Athens, taking the stress of missing that flight away. I reached out throughout the trip with questions or to ask for help with reservations, and they always responded immediately. I could relax and enjoy because they took care of everything. I would not hesitate to recommend them when planning a trip to Greece!

Zicasso's travel company made our bucket-list trip to Greece come to life! They organised all our tours and transportation, worked with us to provide activities that were in line with our interests, and even gave detailed information on suggested itineraries for our free days.

Some highlights included the walking tour(s) of Athens, our trip to see Santorini, and the best steak I have ever had at a beach hotel in Naxos! Our only suggestion is that we went on a day tour to Delos which was self-guided. There is so much history there though that a guided tour would have been helpful. I would definitely recommend booking your tour with them!

We had a wonderful time in Greece. We spent 10 days there and went to Athens, Mykonos, and Santorini. The accommodations were great and the planned excursions were fantastic. The weather was perfect.

Zicasso's travel specialist went above and beyond to curate a fantastic, scenic, exciting, and restful vacation for us and was sure to provide us the best possible accommodations at each destination (Athens, Mykonos, Santorini). We didn't have to worry about one single detail for the entire trip as all of our transport was covered, we had a local contact in each location, and all hotels were pre-paid and perfect. We loved every single second of the trip and would absolutely recommend our specialist for anyone seeking a wonderful visit to Greece!
