On your arrival at Athens airport you will be greeted by our English speaking driver who will transfer you in modern, air conditioned comfort to your hotel in central Athens. You will be spending the next two nights at this hotel, so this is your chance to freshen up and settle into the vibe of the city. The rest of the afternoon and evening is free for you to discover Athens. We suggest that you make the short trip to the Plaka region at the base of the Acropolis with its busy streets, interesting shops and many restaurants. Have the first meal of your holiday in one of the Plaka's many traditional Greek restaurants and maybe explore a traditional tavern or two.
Your second day in Athens starts with breakfast in your hotel, after which our driver will collect you for your half day tour of Athens. Starting at around 9 a.m., the English speaking guide will take you to some of Athens most fascinating and interesting sights in a modern, air conditioned coach. Wonder at the magnificence of the Acropolis, the most famous ancient site in the world. The tour also visits the Houses of Parliament, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the Temple of Zeus. Witness the grand structure of the Olympic Stadium built for the first Modern Olympic Games. You will be returned to your hotel around lunchtime After lunch, you will be driven down the Athenian coast to Cape Sounion to the Temple of Poseidon to watch the magnificent sunset over the Aegean. You will be returned to your hotel in the early evening, after which you can find you evening meal in any one of the many international gourmet restaurants that Athens has to offer.
After breakfast, you will check out of your hotel, and our transfer driver will take to the airport for your flight, or to the port for you sailing to Mykonos. In arrival at Mykonos you will be met by our representative and transferred to your hotel. You will have four nights at this wonderful establishment and we are sure you fall in love with the atmosphere and friendliness of the hotel. As soon as you reach Mykonos you will feel the vibe that is the heart and soul of this magical and cosmopolitan island. The rest of the day is yours to do with as you wish, whether that be sitting by the pool relaxing or wandering the labyrinthine streets. Have a drink and maybe a dance at any one of the incredible clubs the island has to offer. This is a place where the young, beautiful, famous and infamous come to party. Enjoy!
Day Four gives you with a view into Ancient Greece which you will never forget. Make sure you're up early for this memorable trip. After breakfast, our representative will transfer you to the old port of Mykonos for you half day tour of Delos. This island is the centre of the Cyclades Islands and birthplace of the gods Apollo and Artemis. It has also been uninhabited for over a thousand years, Delos is one of the most important archaeological sites in Greece. Our English speaking guide will explain to you the sights of this magnificent place, only a short boat ride away from Mykonos. Be a part of time standing still on this little piece of uninhabited beauty. You will return to Mykonos late afternoon where you are free to spend the afternoon as you choose, wandering back to your hotel after a spot of supper in one of the many cafes, or maybe a trip to the boutiques that line the narrow streets. The shopping in Mykonos is as good as London, Paris and New York, with many a designer having boutiques in the winding streets. While you're in Mykonos, make sure you indulge in the incredible nightlife the town has to offer. Pierro's and the Manto Bar, in the streets behind the port are great places to start. Of if you're after something a bit more sedate, the piano bars, such as the Montparnasse in Little Venice might be more your scene. There is something for everybody after dark - you just have to go and find it.
On the morning of day five we will deliver your rental car to you. Please let us know if you prefer a manual or automatic transmission. With your car you have the freedom to explore the island away from the town. Please be careful when driving on the roads of Mykonos - they can be rather treacherous in places. One of the first places on your list o places to go should be Paradise and Super Paradise beaches. Here the party starts early and lasts until the very early hours. The people watching here is phenomenal as well, with sights of the young, the beautiful and the downright amazing flocking to these incredible beaches. Use the car to your advantage. There is a lot to see outside of the town.
Once again, use the hire car to your advantage, making the most of the car to see more out of the way beaches. In particular, Ornos Beach to the north of the town is a quieter beach than Paradise and Super Paradise, with its course sand and calm waters. The jewel of all MykonosBeaches is Elia, on the other side of the island. This beach is gay friendly. Like most of the beaches on Mykonos, nudity is widely accepted and Elia can feel like your own private beach, with its fine sand and clear waters. It's a great place to relax and watch the world go by, free from the crowds and music of other, more notorious places, if that is what you desire. On the way home, visit the monastery in the island's centre. Early in the evening, the rental car company will collect the car from your hotel. Make the most of this evening, your last in this little piece of sybaritic paradise - eat, drink, dance and enjoy the freedoms that Mykonos provides.
Fly back to Athens to connect to your international flight back home.
Me and my Girlfriend took a trip to Greece with Antelope Travel and it was nothing short of perfect. Their driver and staff were super helpful, polite, and warm. We gave them a few ideas and they turned it into an amazing itinerary that was both packed with fun things to do and good recommendations and flexibility to allow us to discover our destinations in Greece to the fullest. We highly recommend their services and we will be going back to them for our next Greece vacation!

Anthony Alagiah with Antelope Travel planned the perfect family trip for us in June 2023. Anthony was a pleasure to work with, he communicated in detail and was very responsive to any questions I had and even stayed in touch while we were in Greece.
This was our first visit to Greece and he patiently guided me during the planning process and planned perfect itineraries for Athens, the islands and the mainland so we could experience a variety of different parts of Greece. Keeping three teenage boys engaged and interested isn't always easy but all of Anthony's tours, tour guides and activities worked perfectly for all of us!
We had many air, land and sea transfers and Anthony's planning and his partners ensured that everything went smoothly for us.
We were referred to Anthony from friends and I highly recommend him! I have now referred other friends to him, as thanks to his expertise, we had a fantastic family trip to Greece.

Anthony and his team did an amazing job organizing our eight day trip to Mykonos and Santorini. They chose two excellent hotels that met our budget, and booked car transport and inter-island ferries for us. He also gave a bunch of great restaurant recommendations and was able to help us book a few last-minute items, including a wine tour! He also had local representatives on each island who we were able to call with random specific asks (e.g., last minute club reservations on Mykonos).
The only thing we'd change is that we wish we had been able to spend even MORE time in Greece! In fact, we're already hoping to take another trip next year, and if we do we'll definitely be using Anthony and team again!
Having worked with other travel agents in other regions who do not do nearly as good a job, we can honestly say we are really happy with our Antelope experience!

We worked with Anastasia at Antelope travel, who was amazing. She arranged a four hour tour in Athens and then 3 nights in Mykonos and 3 nights in Santorini. It was a truly amazing trip. All the guides hired by the travel agency (Athens and Delos day trip) were knowledgeable and friendly. The transfers and transportation was timely and efficient. The hotel in Mykonos (Myconian Imperial) was a real treasure.....we loved it. I rarely work with travel agents because I think I can do it on my own, but this trip was truly marvelous because of Anastasia's efforts. We want to thank her for all her help!!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Anthony & his entire team from the very start of our planning our vacation to Greece all the way through of traveling back home to Chicago. Anthony & his team ensured our entire trip was seamless. We started in Athens for 24 hours, then to Mykonos for 4 days and then Santorini for 4 days. The planning & attention to detail made the whole trip one of the best travel experiences of our life. Anthony & his team were referred to us by a couple of other friends who had also worked with them for their vacations to Greece over the past few years & we will continue referring Anthony to anyone we know who is traveling to Greece because of our incredible experience!
