GAT Santorini Luxury Economy 5 days Package

Set in southeastern Europe and boasting thousands of breathtaking islands in the Aegean and Ionic Seas, Greece is a country that remains virtually unrivalled in the sheer volume and diversity of its historical and cultural repertoire. For centuries visitors have been drawn to the country's spectacular natural landscapes and rich archaeological sites, which contain the relics of four millennia of ancient culture. Greece's islands are arguably its biggest drawcard, from the bustling nightlife of Mykonos to the breathtaking sunsets of Santorini and exquisite turquoise waters everywhere you look. Must-see heritage attractions include the numerous ancient structures of Athens, Meteora Monasteries, one of the world's most remarkable ecclesiastical sites, the towering Mount Olympus, home of the gods, and ofcourse Delphi, Greece's most sacred site where the oracle once answered important questions in the temple of Apollo.
