Athens - Mykonos - Delos - Naxos - Athens itinerary II
Cycladic Adventure
Our 10 day Athens and Cyclades islands itinerary breezily allows you to make all connections and arrive in Athens when schedule permits knowing that a central Athens 2 star superior hotel accommodation is ready and waiting. The following morning, the minimum time in Athens required to visit the must see Acropolis and Parthenon is spent. Those bare minimum of Athens most famous sites seen, and souvenirs priced, at 3:30 in the afternoon of your second day in Greece you'll board your first ferry to the Greek islands.
An interesting and leisurely 5.5 hour Greek islands ferry boat voyage to Mykonos, with short stops likely, at other Cyclades island on the way, and where you'll still have an hour of the hot Greek sun left to check into your hotel and get your bearings, or even do some late afternoon shopping because Mykonos hardly ever closes, even at night. You'll have 3 nights to explore Mykonos' world class bars, cafes, clubs, discos, restaurants and stores and 3 days to work on your tan on its many sandy beaches.
Ancient Delos (left), birth place of Apollo and Artemis, is just offshore and you wont want to miss the guided tour of this, the ancient center of the Cyclades. Getting there in a smaller Kiaki type boat will be one of the highlights of your visit to the Greek Islands too. On the 5th day you sail off to Naxos (near left) (2hrs) in the afternoon from where you will enjoy a more traditional but definitely fun island with good sandy beaches and nightlife to boot.
After three more days of sun and history filled activity on Naxos you'll depart for Athens and and the next day take the Temple of Poseidon Coach tour to Sounion (32km). The setting and sunsets are unforgettable with an amazing view of the whole of the Saronic Gulf, thus topping off your exposure to classical Greece with two sure fire temples. The sister temple to Poseidon at Sounion is in the Athenian agora below the Acropolis and it is the best preserved temple in Greece. And designed by the same architect. Only Sounion's has fewer flutes put in the columns to minimize exposure from the sea. (Delos above right)

Dear All: First of all thanks for your prompt reply. I find your quotation very reasonable, so I´m positive we will use your services. However I would like to ask you to quote me the same tour with four star hotels also. If the difference is not to big, we would probably use those ones. All I´m waiting for is your information in order to make our decision. If you send me the new quotation I will book the tour by Monday.
