Or should we look into getting houses in both locations and split the time between the two?I love Santorini (much prefer it to Mykonos) so I’m of course going to say you should split your time (at least) between the two. Make sure it’s a hotel in town. So based on your website recommendations, we have chosen:Given our places to go for Santorini and Mykonos, how many days do you advise that we need for each place and if we would need a car to travel around?

Wondering what would be the best way to spend our time ….thanks!Mykonos is better for beaches and day drinking clubs. at 09:40 and arr. Already doing 5 at Domes of Elounda on Crete (free stay with Marriott points). Though Mykonos and Santorini can be expensive it’s easy to find cheap hotels on both, especially in May. My husband and I will be traveling to Mykonos the second week of May this year 2017.

Hi Dave, I thought I posted a couple of days ago but can’t seem to find it, so I apologize if this is a duplicate.

Do you think we’ll miss out on the party scene completely by going so early?

We will arrive midday in Athens on Sunday. Kamari is on the opposite side of the mountain.The view from Nea Kameni looking east towards Fira (on the right), Skaros Rock and Imerovigli (right of center), and Oia (on the far left). Our option in town is the Semeli Hotel. Good natural route that works well with the ferries.Thanks so much for this.

But with just 4 days Naxos is manageable while Crete is too big.Is it possible to do Crete, Mykonos, and Santorini over 7 nights or is this really pushing it?

We are early 30 something women and are interested in relaxing, site seeing, beaches and some partying. I’d go for it.Athens and Santorini, yes.

There are always plenty of ferries though. Is it worth it to rent a car/vehicle, or should public transportation be enough to see the main points of interest? Flying into Athens in the evening and then leave for home in the early morning. Oia is the most distant town in the center of the picture.A similar view as above but here you can see the switchbacks of the road down to the ferry port.And one more shot looking north from the Venetsanos winery in southern Santorini.Looking south from Kamari beach towards Mesa Vouno. !That sounds perfect to me. We just want to see the main attractions in Athens. We just love to explore. Any less and I’d choose one and stick with it.I have a question regarding ferries from Mykonos to Athens. Here’s the final tip for the day.
Brilliant site mate! Santorini Tuesday and Wednesday, leaving by ferry to Mykonos Wed afternoon. There are a few great luxury hotels on the southern end of Perivolos.Other highlights of Santorini include the wineries, which fill in the middle and southern parts of the island, especially around Megalochori village. They are 3 hours apart by ferry so Some summers there are direct flights between Santorini and Mykonos.

You could maybe add one more small island (e.g. But what I read above, it sounds like the perfect amount of time. There are about 220 islands in all, many of them way too small to be put on the map. Since most people go to Mykonos for the beaches, a visit outside of the warmest months has less to offer. Then to Santorini after a few days. So, my question is whether Mykonos is feasible for us in early March.

06h15 Transfer to the Piraeus port and embarkation to the Blue Star boat to Mykonos. Do you think one night/day and a half would be enough to explore and enjoy Santorini? Incredibly helpful.

Now I am thinking about just doing Athens on the tail end for 2 consecutive nights.

Our kids have all been to and raved about Mykonos. You’ll need a car to get to these beaches.Aside from the Chora, there is really only one other true village on Mykonos, Ano Mera. All four islands are quite distinctly different from their cousins in the bleaker, burned-rock archipelago of the south Aegean. We’re not too keen on shopping or anything. Is Albania possible from any of these places?It’s possible to do all 3 islands in one week but I wouldn’t recommend it. It can be a great time to visit.

Monaco and Verona are the 2 other candidates to cross off since they’re a little out of the way. I’ve read mixed reviews of Psirri neighborhood at night.

There’s a high speed jet that takes less than 3 hours that looks rather tempting.As long as it’s a large high-speed ferry, you’ll be fine. Four days in Santorini is perfect.Santorini sounds wonderful for a 7 day escape. Doing the Athens visit all-together at the end of your trip is best regardless of the islands.Thank you for this wonderful site, hands down The BEST!! Do you agree or maybe add another day/night in Athens/Italy? I am a solo female looking to relax, unwind, swim, hike and enjoy some good seafood.

There are currently no scheduled direct flights showing anywhere between Santorini and Mykonos (or vice versa). Are we missing anything really impressive? Thanks!I am planning a trip for this summer and am thinking we will spend time in Mykonos, Paros and the mainland (Nafplio). With some luck you would have time for finding your hotel and getting dinner in Heraklion – then you plan to leave for Santorini the next morning? If you can arrive in Athens before noon you can hit the highlights with a busy half day (most attractions in Athens are open until 8pm in summer so this helps). After reading your site, I’m wondering is it worth to go to Mykonos since it’s mid April? We do love to party every now and then but also love dinners with nice views (especially sunsets), swimming, lying on the beach, exploring on motorbikes, hiking etc. I am planning to spend three nights in each starting from Athens –> Santorini –> Mykonos –> home. It’s on the Highspeed 7 which is a larger and very nice ferry. This is the view from Santorini’s capital, Fira.Once a round island, Santorini is now shaped like a backward “C” with 2 volcanoes in the sea to its west and a couple of smaller islands (Thirassia and Aspronisi) where the western half of Santorini used to be.
