If you have ever dreamed of roaming the magical cobblestone walkways of Santorini and admiring the Acropolis in Athens – this is your chance! Join WTA on a tour of the Greek Islands. Your travels will span across Mykonos, Santorini, and Athens. This trip has the perfect balance of exploring: witness the ancient Acropolis and learn of unique Grecian history, visit ancient cities and outdoor museums, experience picture-perfect coastlines, and warm your heart with some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world. Your Mediterranean getaway is just a click away!
Note: We recommend leaving the US on May 22 so that your flight arrives the morning of May 23 – early enough to participate in Day 1’s activities. Should you wish to arrive on May 22 instead, pre-trip hotel charges will be added to your final bill.
