Heraklion, Crete's capital, lies on the side of a hill facing the Cretan Sea. The city got its name from the mythical hero Hercules. Although it is a great city full of life, Heraklion is also the gateway to the nearby magnificent monuments of great ancient civilizations. Discover the amazing Minoan Crete or simply enjoy the beautiful beaches of the area.
Mykonos, the most cosmopolitan island in Europe with the most beautiful beaches.
Mykonos is a place that has evolved into a global symbol of freedom, elegance, and indulgence—without ever severing ties with its Cycladic soul. Behind its international fame and the shimmering energy of its summer nights lies an island of striking aesthetic harmony: whitewashed houses, blue-shuttered windows, narrow alleys that twist and turn as if shaped by wind and light. Mykonos Town is a labyrinth that doesn’t confuse—it enchants, leading you to hidden courtyards, small galleries, quiet chapels, and corners that still hold a sense of inner calm, even at the height of the season’s liveliness.
Mykonos is not merely a destination for revelry—it’s a place of contrasts and coexistence. From sun-drenched beaches alive with energy to the golden hues that paint the windmills at dusk, from the exclusive privacy of luxury retreats to the genuine smile of a local at a taverna in Ano Mera, the island welcomes everyone without losing itself. Behind its photogenic surfaces and global influences, Mykonos holds onto something deeper—an authentic, almost spiritual core you can feel when you look at it with fewer expectations and greater attention.
It’s no coincidence that so many return, again and again. Mykonos is an experience, a contradiction, a sensation—and an island that, whether it sweeps you away or challenges your idea of it, never leaves you indifferent.
Perched high above the beaches with black sand and crystal sea waters, access to Fira town becomes in three ways - by cable car, donkey or on foot. Regardless the way you choose to get there, the amazing sight of whitewashed houses that hang on the edge of the cliff will enchant you. Visit the site of Akrotiri , one of the most important archaeological sites in the world, and have a sightseeing tour to this prehistoric settlement, a city like Pompeii. Do not miss the opportunity to visit a local "Bodega" in the stunning village of Oia at the top of the cliff.
Ephesus and Kusadasi together form a captivating journey through time and modern delights on the Turkish coast. Ephesus, an ancient city steeped in history, whispers tales of its grandeur through awe-inspiring ruins that stand as a testament to its former glory. The Library of Celsus, the Great Theatre, and the Temple of Hadrian beckon travelers to immerse themselves in the architectural wonders of the past. Nearby, the bustling resort town of Kusadasi welcomes visitors with its sun-kissed beaches, vibrant bazaars, and lively marina. As a gateway to Ephesus, Kusadasi embraces the harmony of ancient marvels and contemporary delights, offering a unique blend of exploration and relaxation for those who venture to this picturesque region of Turkey.
