The Greek Islands Mediterranean Magic Athens & Cycladic Islands, Tinos, Santorini, Crete

May 8-19, 2027

Imagine wandering marble-paved village lanes, sharing stories over home-cooked meals in a traditional island kitchen, sailing across turquoise waters on a private catamaran, and standing in awe beneath the Parthenon as history comes alive around you.  Our Greek Islands Escape is an exclusive Broad Escapes women’s journey designed for connection, culture, and pure Mediterranean magic. 

This carefully curated adventure begins in Athens, where ancient history and vibrant modern life blend effortlessly. From there, we slow the pace in the authentic Cycladic gem of Tinos, known for its marble artistry and heartfelt hospitality. We continue to iconic Santorini, where whitewashed villages tumble toward the sea, and finish in soulful Chania, where farm-to-table traditions and Cretan warmth welcome us like family. 

As always, this Broad Escapes tour is limited to a maximum of just 16 women, allowing for deeper cultural experiences, meaningful local connections, and the safety, comfort, and camaraderie that define our journeys. 

This is not a rushed, check-the-box itinerary. It’s immersive. Personal. Joyful.  If Greece has been calling your name, now is the time to answer. 

Join us for an unforgettable island escape.  With only 16 spaces available, this tour is expected to fill quickly.
