Trip Informations
Why you’ll love this trip
verified
Experience life at sea with a local skipper and a crew of adventure-keen travellers aboard a private yacht. Wake up to ocean views, sunbathe on deck and snorkel in quiet bays far from the crowds.
verified
Hike trails that take you into the heart of the Cyclades. Walk past grazing goats and whitewashed chapels, say kalimera (hello) to farmers and climb to the medieval Castle of Oria for amazing Aegean views.
verified
Join a local family for a home-cooked dinner at their home in Syros to get an authentic taste of Greek hospitality.
verified
Watch the Cyclades’ famous tangerine sunsets from the deck of your yacht, cold drink in hand, while the waves lap against the hull.
verified
Step back in time on Delos – one of Greece’s most significant archaeological sites. Wander the Avenue of Lions, visit the House of Cleopatra and imagine ancient crowds at a 5000-seat theatre.
Is this trip right for you?
verified
As the majority of this trip takes place on a sailing boat, you’ll need to feel comfortable with moving about the vessel, including the use of stairs. With that said, sea legs come naturally to some but not so much for others. Your friendly skipper will be able to help with the effects of sea sickness if needed.
verified
Our yachts have a small Zodiac on board, which is used to transport travellers to shore if we need to anchor in the bay. Zodiacs can sometimes be awkward to climb in and out of, but a sense of humour and a can-do attitude are all you need.
verified
This trip includes walks on most days between 2-3 hours duration. You need to be in good health to complete the walks. Please ensure you bring sturdy walking shoes and comfortable clothes. To make the most of the trip, it's best if you have at least a moderate level of fitness.
verified
This is an adventure on board a real yacht, which means living spaces, cabins, bathrooms and showers need to be shared with other passengers. Sleeping quarters can be quite compact, but you will be spending the majority of your time above board in the open air.
verified
Smooth sailing is dependent on the weather, so itinerary changes may occur at the last minute if the weather becomes unfavourable. If any changes are made, you can trust in your knowledgeable skipper to choose an alternative route or activity.

Itinerary
Sail, hike, swim, repeat on this Aegean adventure from Athens to Mykonos
Spend eight sun-kissed days island-hopping, swimming and hiking your way through the Cyclades. Kick things off in the port town of Lavrio near Athens, then set sail across the Aegean on a private yacht. Dropping anchor at some of Greece's lesser-known islands, you’ll hike through sleepy villages and along craggy cliffs, share a homemade dinner with a local family in Syros and uncover the stories of ancient civilisations on the UNESCO-listed Delos. With an experienced skipper leading the way, daily sea dips and plenty of free time to soak up the slower rhythm of island life, this is the Cyclades at their best.

ACCOMMODATION ON BOARD THE YACHT
verified
This trip is accommodated entirely on board a yacht of between 54ft to 56ft. The yacht can accommodate up to 11 traveller’s in the following cabin types:
verified
double bed cabins (x2)
verified
twin bunk bed cabins (x2)
verified
triple bunk bed cabin (x1)
verified
There are 5 shared bathrooms. Our boats are real yachts, and this is a real sailing trip. Yachts are designed to keep sleeping areas to the absolute minimum of space, while maximising common areas as much as possible. Everyone including the skipper shares the bathrooms on board.
verified
Solo customers can choose to book either a twin bunk bed cabin or a triple bunk bed cabin and will be matched up with other solo customers of the same gender. If you’d prefer not to share a cabin, a single cabin supplement is available at an additional charge when booking either a twin or double cabin.
verified
Rooms are allocated on arrival by our skipper according to group composition, which means it is not possible to reserve or guarantee any specific berth. If you are booking a bunk bed cabin you must be willing to sleep on the top bunk.
verified
Double bed cabins can only be booked by 2 people travelling together or a solo customer who pays for a single supplement.
verified
While not everyone may feel entirely comfortable living in such close quarters, those who are looking to revel in the adventure and exhilaration of an authentic sailing trip usually find any discomfort from cramped living conditions is more than made up for by the whole experience.

TRIP KITTY:
verified
This trip has a compulsory group kitty of EUR100 per person. The kitty is an on-ground payment put into a central fund managed by travellers. It helps fund for breakfast and lunch on the boat and other small items such as ice, water, snacks and drinks. Travellers are responsible for the preparation of these meals onboard and to shop at port where supermarkets are often very close to the mooring. Kitty amounts are subject to change to reflect local price increases. On day 1, the skipper will talk through the kitty and how it will be managed by the group. The kitty will be collected when you arrive at the welcome meeting or in stages throughout your trip. The kitty amount should be used as a guide. More than likely, you will not spend the full amount recommended however it's advisable to budget for this amount.
