An extensive article dedicated to the unparalleled charm of Greek islands hosts the British newspaper Telegraphpresenting the experience of browsing from island to island (Island-Hopping).

“Nothing compares to traveling from island to island in Greece,” the author of the article writes Heidi Fuller-Lov. “You long for you to land on every pine island, the most beautiful of the other. Watch grandmothers dressed in black hold bags with spiced baklava and grandparents tightening worn out kicks as they are pushed to board. “

The journey itself is half a pleasure, Fuller-Lov points out and adds:

“The greatest privilege, however, is not able to find many different destinations in a single route. From isolated islands, where ships arrive a few times a week, to the popular and cosmopolitan, which receive hundreds of cities daily, each place has its own personality and unique atmosphere. With more than 227 inhabited islands, Greece offers countless choices for every kind of traveler. “

The article offers an 11 -day route, ideal for those who visit the Greek islands for the first time. The journey begins in Athens, with the imposing Acropolis and the capital’s riviera. First island stop in Mykonos with famous windmills and modern clubs that adorn the silky sand of Psaros. This is followed by Santorini, with its characteristic blue domes and impressive caldera and Crete, with its impressive landscapes, gastronomy and its famous hospitality. Finally, Karpathos, with its golden beaches, hidden creeks and villages that seem to stop time.

“Think of it as a Greek appetizer,” the columnist notes. “A tasting test of the countless fragrances and experiences of Greece on a single journey.”
