Grand tour of the Cyclades: Andros, Tinos, Mykonos, Delos and Amorgos
Fourteen days, five islands, one promise: the Cycladic joie de vivre, without a care. Your charming hotels are reserved, your luggage transferred from island to island, your English-speaking guide knows every mule path and every taverna where the best grilled octopus is served. With Kelifos, you simply let the light of the Aegean carry you.
This grand tour reveals Cyclades that few travellers know. Andros, the greenest of the archipelago, charms with its wooded valleys, singing fountains and neoclassical shipowner mansions. Tinos, an island of contrasts, alternates dazzling marble villages, granite landscapes and religious fervour around its celebrated basilica. An entire day is devoted to Delos, an open-air sanctuary listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where you plunge into the heart of Greek mythology with an English-speaking cultural guide. The journey ends in splendour on Amorgos, the most eastern and wildest island, immortalised by The Big Blue; its spectacular ridges and the Chozoviotissa monastery, suspended from the cliff face above the deep blue sea, will leave a lasting impression.
Each stage alternates panoramic walks, cultural discoveries, swims in secluded coves and taverna evenings. This is a trip where authenticity and heritage are savoured day by day, without haste or constraint.
