From early Christian mosaics to majestic churches and impressive palaces, this charming seaside port is a haven for lovers of art and architecture.
Here on one of the world’s most popular islands, Santorini, adventure bubbles above the Aegean Sea in the most bold and breathtaking ways. A cable car takes you to the capital of Fira, a bustling cliff-top town awash with old cathedrals, enthralling museum collections and cosy tavernas.

Whether it’s by bicycle, ATV or on your own two feet, exploring this Cyclades isle never fails to impress.
The Island of the Winds is as colourful as the people who call the island home. You can walk Mykonos' narrow marble pathways laced with purple bougainvillea blooms or go cycling on two wheels past off-the-beaten-track Ano Mera village. Explore Greece’s maritime history at Armenistis Lighthouse and check out the Folklore Museum’s Mykonian ship models. Join in the raucous beach party on Super Paradise’s shimmering sands, or watch the sun burn out beyond an Aegean horizon from an open-air seaside taverna.

Art lovers, epicureans and history buffs will be delighted by the ancient ruins, museums and tavernas of this picturesque town. Just 10 minutes from the port, you'll find the Archaeological Museum of Piraeus, filled with sculptures from the Bronze Age to the Romans.
