Island Odyssey
8 Days
Ref: FGIO
You can...
Discover unspoilt Evia Island
Spend several days exploring by boat
See villages, coves and islands
You'll spend half of your trip exploring by land and half by sea.
The attractive island Evia, still remains largely undeveloped. From
your hotel base, you'll explore an old Venetian Fortress, tiny villages
and quiet coves. Then, boarding a kaiki (a traditional wooden fishing
boat), you'll take to the sea, discovering fishing villages, bays
and islands.
Each evening you'll moor in a different harbour where you're free
to enjoy the typical Greek atmosphere of local tavernas and restaurants.
There's a great balance of relaxation and exploration.

Is it right for your family?
Your hotel base is mid-range standard. The kaiki is a traditional
Greek vessel and, although not originally designed for tourism,
it provides a great way to explore the islands. There are cabins,
but many people sleep out on deck under the stars. The emphasis
of the trip is on relaxation.
