Day 2: Athens/Páros
Travel by ferry to the Paros, an island of beautiful villages surrounded by picturesque nature and views of the Mediterranean. Head out on an orientation walk starting at the port town of Paroikla with its white cube-shaped houses. Wander past churches, the Venetian Castle on the hill and the Archaeological Museum. Afterwards, take advantage of free time to visit the many restaurants, cafes, and shops along the old town's main streets.
Day 3: Páros
Set off on a half-day tour to see more of the island of Paros. Visit the inland village of Lefkes surrounded by hills, pine forests, and olive groves. Then, travel to the resort town of Naousa and Kolymbithres Beach with the clearest water and coolest rock formations you could use for sunbathing. The rest of the day is yours to continue exploring, walk on the beach, grab a bite to eat, and relax in this paradise that offers you a Greek island experience without the crowds.
Day 4: Páros/Íos
Hop on a ferry to your next island destination today and enjoy a small lunch onboard. Upon arrival at Ios the group will enjoy an orientation walk with your CEO of Chora which is the main and only real village of Ios. Wander around admiring the little cube house with the flat roofs and the narrow stone paved winding labyrinth of streets. Afterwards you'll have free time to visit some of the bars and restaurants for some food and drinks, lounge on the beach, or climb to the highest point on the island for panoramic views of Ios. It's truly unforgettable, especially during a colorful sunset.
Day 5: Íos
Today is all about beaches, swimming, and living out those Greek Island bucket-lists. The group will embark on the Best of Beaches Tour of Ios midmorning. The trip is four hours and you'll visit seven different beaches along the island. Lunch is included and you'll have opportunities to swim, try snorkelling at Neverbay. In the evening take advantage of free time to stroll through town or dance the night away at an island nightclub and bar.

The tour was extremely well organised. Our CEO was amazing at recommending the best locations for us for dinner and things to do in our free time. The CEO became more like a friend than anything! As a solo female traveller I always felt safe and never once felt uncomfortable with anything!

The trips are (mostly) well planned, the tour guides are great, the accommodation is satisfactory, the value for money is good, and I had an amazing time in Greece. It takes out a lot of the stress to have the trip planned for you. And it's not as expensive as some other alternatives.

My friend and I booked through G Adventures for our first trip to Greece. As we were looking we noticed that tours were either extremely busy ( lack of down time), we?re based around nightlife/ partying, and most of the time, expensive. The itinerary appealed to us because it offered opportunities to explore on our own or relax when not with the group. It also removed the stress of finding good hotels, reliable transit and tasty meals.

The tour is very well laid out. I really liked that the accommodations and travels are all set for you. You show up and enjoy every moment without the stress and hassle of figuring out the logistics. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, personable, friendly, and put in extra work to make sure everyone was comfortable with their needs met.
