Greece island hopping itinerary — Santorini and beyond, designed for you
Not just Santorini. Greece has 227 inhabited islands. Alejandro designs your personalised Greece trip — the best Greek islands for your style and season.
Alejandro's Greece — the islands most people miss
Why Milos beats Santorini for first-time visitors. Santorini in August vs Santorini in October — the difference is extreme. Meteora: the monasteries on cliffs that belong on a different planet. Ferry connections — how not to waste two days on logistics. This is what makes a Greece island hopping itinerary by Alejandro truly different.

What to see and do in Greece
The islands and spots that are truly worth it.

Meteora — ancient monasteries on top of the world
Orthodox monasteries hanging from impossible rocks, 2h from Athens by train. One of Europe's most impressive sights.

Greece trips planned by Viajandro
"Alejandro designed a route through lesser-known islands that was SO much better than overcrowded Santorini. Milos and Naxos changed our perspective of Greece."
