L’accueil aux aéroports et traversiers était excellente. Les chauffeurs, en particulier Sakis à Athènes, sont courtois et bien informés. Seul bémol, nous aurions aimé avoir notre itinéraire avec noms d’hôtel, horaires des traversiers un peu plus tôt avant notre départ afin de mieux planifier nos visites. ... Read More

Extremely glad I discovered your services. Absolutely loved the hotel in Santorini but we should know in advance that it is located far from Fyra and Oia, which makes it difficult to go out there for dinner and sunsets. But it was such a gem - felt like a boutique hotel and would highly recommend. ... Read More

C’était ma deuxième expérience avec Wingbuddy et, encore une fois, tout a été à la hauteur de mes attentes. Je dirais même mieux car cette fois les vols étaient avec Air Transat au lieu de l’horrible Air Canada Rouge! Je n’avais jamais volé avec Transat et j’ai été agréablement surprise. Pour un voyage en Grèce, la logistique peut être complexe et j’ai beaucoup apprécié ne pas avoir à me casser la tête avec les transferts, les traversiers et tout le reste. J’aime vraiment la formule de Wingbuddy car le principal est organisé et on peut adapter notre séjour à notre rythme. Tout était réglé au quart de tour, les instructions étaient claires, les chauffeurs étaient courtois, les véhicules propres, les hôtels agréables, bref l’expérience fut positive sur toute la ligne! (Il ne manquait que les billets d’avion pour la portion Chania-Athènes dans nos documents électroniques mais on nous les a envoyés sur demande, et une enveloppe nous attendait à la réception de l’hôtel.) Je n’hésite jamais à recommander Wingbuddy à mon entourage quand on me demande mon avis, et je suis ravie que mon amie ait accepté d’essayer la formule pour ce voyage. Merci pour tout!... Read More

CRETE & SANTORINI

11 NIGHTS / 13 DAYS
  • Day 1: Canada - Athens (Greece)Flight with a good itinerary.
  • Day 2: Athens (Greece)

    Arrival at the airport in Athens. You will be greeted by our local representatives after exiting the customs and transferred to your hotel in Athens. The rest of your day/evening is free for you to relax or start your exploration of the historic city of Athens.

  • Day 3: Athens - Santorini

    After breakfast at the hotel, greeting in the lobby of your hotel and transfer to the port of Athens to embark on a high speed ferry toward Santorini. 

    Arrival at the port of Santorini. Greeting by our local representatives and transfer to your hotel. Take advantage of your afternoon and evening at leisure to discover the infinite charm and beauty of this island. (Breakfast)

  • Day 4: Santorini

    Breakfast at the hotel. Explore the majestic island of Santorini at leisure. You can also book optional excursions ($) directly at your hotel. (Breakfast)

    Whitewashed villages clinging to the sides of the sea cliffs have made the volcanic island of Santorini one of the most widely photographed places in the world. The island's charm and subtle mystery have even made it a target of speculation as to the location of the lost city of Atlantis. On the other side of the island, black-sand beaches slide toward the sea. Venture on this island to appreciate a little corner of paradise where, after watching an unforgettable sunset, you will most likely want to stay forever.

  • Day 5: Santorini - Heraklion (Crete)

    After breakfast, greeting in the lobby of your hotel and transfer to the port of Santorini to embark on a ferry toward Heraklion, in Crete.

    Upon arrival at the port of Heraklion, you will be greeted by our local representatives and transferred to your hotel. The rest of the day is free for you to start your exploration of Crete's capital city. (Breakfast)

  • Day 6 to 7: Heraklion

    All breakfasts at the hotel. 2 days to explore bustling Heraklion. You can also book optional excursions ($) directly at your hotel. (Breakfasts)

    Heraklion is considered one of the cradles of European civilization. Important monuments such as the Minoan palace of Knossos, the Venetian fortress of Koules and the Loggia are witnesses of ancient and medieval times. The countryside just outside of Heraklion is also remarkable and offers everything one would expect of Greece: magnificent beaches, olive trees as far as the eye can see and typical whitewashed villages.

  • Day 8: Heraklion - Chania (Crete)

    After breakfast, you will be transferred from Heraklion to your new hotel in Chania, in the western region of the island. The rest of the day is free to start your exploration of Chania, a city of multiple influences and undeniable charm. (Breakfast)

  • Day 9 to 11: Chania

    All breakfasts at the hotel. 3 days to explore authentic Chania and the jewels of Western Crete at leisure. You can also book optional excursions ($) directly at your hotel. (Breakfasts)

    Chania is a unique place where different civilizations have flourished over the centuries. Built on the remains of the ancient city of Kydonia, it was conquered by the Byzantines, the Venetians and the Ottomans. Wander around the maze of small alleys lined by colorful old town houses and explore the covered market in search of local delicacies. Whether you are a hiking aficionado or a beachgoer, you will be equally impressed by the natural beauty of the majestic Samaria Gorge National Park and Elafonisi pink sand beach's magic.

  • Day 12: Chania - Athens

    After breakfast, transfer to the airport in Chania for your short flight to Athens.

    Upon arrival at the airport in Athens, greeting by our local representatives and transfer to your hotel. Enjoy the rest of your day/evening to explore the friendly areas of Plaka and Monastiraki and enjoy a glass of wine on a rooftop with views of the Acropolis. (Breakfast) 

  • Day 13: Athens - Canada

    Breakfast at the hotel. Greeting in the lobby of your hotel by our local representatives and transfer to the airport for your flight home. (Breakfast)
