Woman relaxing and reading a book by the sea

Discover the alternative side of Greece through package that will take you through lesser known destinations, preferred by locals. Enjoy the gorgeous simplicity and wild beauty of Greece with a unique experience your friends will envy. The setting of your journey lays in western Cyclades and specifically the tranquil Serifos and Sifnos. A gastronomic paradise that combines the true Greek spirit with a budget-conscious mindset. Athens will of course be your starting point, with the capital providing a taste of what's to come. A place of traditional taverns to wait out the heat with ouzo and meze, before you take a stroll through the narrow streets of the city center and discover the still-standing ancient monuments that are a testament to a great civilization. As you stray from downtown, contemporary settings and street art will start to populate the scene to create a marvelous contrast to satisfy every taste.

A quick ferry ride away is Serifos, a hidden gem gracefully embraced by the deep blue colors of the Aegean Sea. Its shoreline consists of magnificent isolated beaches for those of you that value your privacy and are looking to escape the crowds of tourists swarming to Greece every summer. The locals, renowned for their hospitality, have respected the Cycladic architectural tradition, as white and blue houses seen all around the island give Serifos a true Cycladic vibe. In the same vein, but with the addition of numerous whitewashed chapels, monasteries and a lovely panoramic sea view, comes Sifnos. Sandy beaches spreading as far as the eye can see, unspoiled by mass tourism, will captivate you. Small fishing villages and taverns offering home-cooked local delicacies are present throughout the island and will give you an incentive to take advantage of the hiking trails and become one with nature.
