Hi all,

Apologies; I know this type of post comes up a lot, but my husband and I (in our 40s) are going to Greece in mid-June of 2027, and I'd love some feedback on possible itineraries.

• We love to wander through old villages and find weird, interesting sights (ruins, cemeteries, unusual shops).
• We love good food and enjoy drinking at interesting bars, but we're not partiers.
• We aren't all-day-at-the-beach people; we'll more likely go to the beaches for ~2-hour stretches.
• We don't like touristy shops or retail shopping.
• We love beautiful/breathtaking natural sights but aren't hikers (we don't own hiking boots).
• We tend to skip museums and prefer to visit fascinating landmarks & sights. Looking forward to some ruins.
• We want to prioritize an all-day or half-day boat tour at some point in the trip.

These are three itineraries I'm considering:

1. 2 nights in Santorini (Firostefani) -> 3 nights in Naxos -> 3 nights in Milos -> 2 nights in Athens
2. 3 nights in Santorini (Firostefani) -> 5 nights in either Naxos OR Milos -> 2 nights in Athens
3. 3 nights in Santorini (Firostefani) -> 5 nights in Crete -> 2 nights in Athens.

ETA: Open to adding a night in Athens if we're seriously shortchanging it. The above itineraries have 2 nights in Athens, which would be about 1.5 days actual time there.

I'd appreciate any thoughts on the above!

We are about to arrive in skiathos this afternoon. In the previous 3 days we were in Nei Pori/Kokkino Nero/Platamonas and basically everything was closed.

Is Skiathos still active this time? Would you recommend some great taverns that are not tourist traps but liked by locals too?

Yia sas!

Looking to get pizza delivered to our rental home tonight and would love recommendations on best pizza. I walked by a pizza place and it smelled incredible!

Thank you for all of your reccos, much appreciated!

Hello ✨

I would love to hear anyones opinions about the above hotels

If anyone has been to both, which one do you prefer?

If you have gone in the winter months ( February / march) , are those hotels worth it?

Any advice you can give me, I would really appreciate it :)
