Mykonos,
Greece: This cosmopolitan and picturesque island is well known for its graphic paved streets with hundreds of boutiques and Cycladic art shops. Beneath the sophisticated surface of Mykonos lies a quintessential Greek Island. Hundreds of tiny chapels dot the island and sheep graze in the shadow of white-washed windmills.

Kusadasi
(Ephessos), Turkey: A tour to nearby Ephessos should not be missed, for here history truly comes to life. Walking towards the ancient harbor, down a marble road rutted by the wheels of countless chariots, you pass architectural masterpieces like the Magnesian Gate and the Library of Celsus before arriving at the Great Amphitheater where St. Paul was arrested and cast out of the city. |

Milos,
Greece: Milos was the destination of the first known travel in the world in the open sea. Bold navigators 8000 years BC covered a distance of almost 100 NM and reached Milos, where they discovered a hard volcanic rock, called "opsidianos". Many small and big colourful sandy beaches, marine caves and extraordinary forms of volcanic activy, are responsible for the explosion of tourism in Milos. The history, the legends and the tradition meet the breathtaking beauty of this island, and they compose an ideal destination for relaxation. |
