Itinerary
5 Nights – Santorini
5 Nights – Crete
✈ UK – Santorini (5 Nights): You will first fly direct from the UK to Santorini in the Cyclades. Famous for its traditional white-washed villages that cling to the high clifftops, this volcanic island is instantly recognisable from many postcards of the blue-domed churches backed by brilliant blue skies.
With 5 nights on the island you will have the perfect amount of time to enjoy the busy towns, archaeological sites, and the exquisite black beaches. Santorini was shaped by a devastating volcano in the 16th Century BC which left a rugged landscape and dramatic volcanic crater known as a Caldera, peeking out of the sea and is what makes Santorini so unique, so take in these famous sights and enjoy the Caldera’s hot spring. The main towns of Fira, Firostefani, Imerovigli and Oia, are spread along the cliff overlooking the caldera and walking between the towns, or even part of it, makes for a perfect day. There are countless dramatic viewpoints, enchanting lanes, and spellbinding stairwells. Also, make sure you head to Oia to take in the famous sunset – something not to be missed.
â›´ Santorini – Crete (5 Nights): Sailing onto Crete, the largest of the Greek Islands, you’ll find some of Greece’s most popular beach resorts. You can spend your days relaxing in a luxurious beach hotel, however there’s much more to Crete than just beaches.
Birth place of Minoan civilisation, spend a day exploring the ancient ruins of the Palace of Knossos and learn about all the Greek mythological tales linked to it. Also head to the nearby city of Heraklion, to walk around its historical centre with its bustling market and the recently renovated Archaeological Museum. Another must-do day trip is a hike through the Samarian Gorge, the longest and most impressive of Europe’s limestone gorges. Chania is also well worth a visit, the Venetian Harbour, the old port, the narrow shopping streets and the waterfront restaurants are all wonderful to wander around.
✈ Crete – UK: At the end of your Greek holiday, you are able to fly direct to the UK from one of the international airports on Crete.

I sent eShores an email asking them to tailor a holiday to Italy for me. This is a surprise for my husbands 70th birthday. Therefore we could only liaise via email. Leanne got onto it straight away and sent me all the necessary information. I phined her the following day when my husband was out. She explained everything to me. I was so grateful as this took the stress off of me.

Fantastic service from Lynette from start to finish. Went to Australia this year and Lynette sorted everything out for us, even when we had a small emergency, when in Perth, she answered our concerns straight away and looked into it and advised us what to do. We had such a great time we're off to America next year and Lynette has sorted us again, hoping this time that everything goes according to plan!!!!

I have been using eshores for my travel arrangements for the last few years. The help and guidance I've received is superb. The agent I deal with is Chris Eaves, who provides great advice and goes out of his way to get me the best deal he can. Nothing is too much trouble for him. I'll continue to use eshores for my travel requirements going forward.

Matt from eshores got in contact with us within 24hours of our initial enquiry. We're inexperienced travellers and kept changing our minds, but Matt has been very patient with us. He kept in contact and has created a lovely package for us. If the holiday goes as smoothly as the eshore service, we'll be very happy and definitely recommend eshores and use them again ourselves. Thank you Matt!
