Greek Island Hopping
“This is one of my favorite trips. There is nothing quite like the freedom of sailing to secluded coves, swimming in the ocean with no-one else around, and stopping where you please to watch the sunset. Once on land it’s easy to immerse yourself in the local culture and - as it’s Greece - there are always archeological marvels to explore.”
