Build a Greece itinerary

Choose up to three islands or regions and how many days you have. You get a day-by-day plan from the places in our guide — a sight, a beach and a taverna each day, kept to one part of the island — with honest transfer days between destinations. We tell you how to travel between them; for times, always check the ferry operator.

Worth booking in Andros

The Andros RouteAround 300 kilometres of cleared, waymarked stone footpaths — the roads the villages used before there were roads, between dry-stone walls and watermills.Apikia to the Pythara fallsAn afternoon's walk down to the waterfalls through the greenest valley in the Cyclades — the one everybody does first.

Where to stay in Andros

Live prices and availability on a map centred on this exact spot — hotels, studios and villas — so you can judge the distance to the beach, the port or the village from here rather than guess from an address.

Bookings made through this map earn us a commission. Your price is unaffected.

Andros is the green Cyclade: running water, stone footpaths across the whole island, shipowners' mansions in a town built on a spit of rock, and long empty beaches on a coast most people sail straight past on the way to Mykonos.

Villages, marble and dovecotesPyrgos, where a school of fine arts has turned out sculptors for two centuries, Volax in its field of giant boulders, and about a thousand pierced-stone dovecotes.Eating on TinosArtichokes, capers, wild greens and louza, cooked by a generation that came home. Book in August.Twenty minutes from MykonosThe quietest island in the central Cyclades is one short crossing from the loudest. Ask which coast is sheltered before you drive.

Tinos is the island Greeks come to on their knees and leave talking about dinner: a pilgrimage church above the port, marble-carving villages in the hills, a thousand dovecotes, and a food scene that has quietly become the best in the Cyclades.

Syros is the administrative capital of the Cyclades and the one island that does not close for winter: a neoclassical port city with an opera house, a Catholic medieval town on the hill above it, and beaches that belong to the people who live here.
