Erica and Lea developed an amazing itinerary for us that gave us room to enjoy ourselves when we weren't on an fun and fascinating excursion. From Athens through the Cyclades islands of Mykonos, Naxos, Santorini to Crete, we enjoyed the weather, the food, the landscape and all of the historic ruins of archeaologic significance. The catamaran cruise from Crete was fantastic. The cruise with the Santorini Yacht Club i wouldn't recommend or do again. The crew wasn't friendly, the boat wasn't well taken care of and the food was awful.
Aside from this hiccup, we had a wonderful time. Sept-Oct is a great time to see Greece.
