London to Athens with Greek Island Hopping


This trip was the most wonderful time!! Our tour guide was so knowledgeable and organized. The accommodations were comfortable and clean. I booked this trip for my 30th and it was the most amazing birthday.

How many days do you need for Greek island hopping?

Island hopping isn’t a sprint, it’s a slow, sun-soaked vibe. You’ll want at least 7–10 days to make it worth your while (think 3–4 islands, plenty of beach time, and zero regrets). Got more time? Even better. You’ve got hundreds of islands to flirt with.

Where do you start island hopping in Greece?

Athens is the classic launchpad - ancient ruins, rooftop bars, and ferries galore. But Santorini and Mykonos are also iconic kick-off points if you're flying in fancy. Basically: start where the cocktails are cold and the ferry connections are hot.

Which Greek islands can you ferry between?

Most of 'em! The Cyclades (hello Mykonos, Santorini, Paros, Ios...) are super ferry-friendly with speedy routes. There’s also Crete, Naxos, Milos and more—just check the ferry schedules and make sure Poseidon’s in a good mood.

What is the best time of year to go island hopping in Greece?

Late May to early October is prime time. July and August bring the heat and the party crowds. May, June and September? Way more chill, easier on your wallet, and still sunshine central. Trust us—off-peak is peak energy.
