3 nights in Ios Island
Ios is another stunning island in the Cyclades island group of Greece. Even though it has a reputation for being a party island, it is certainly not limited to only its party scene. Visitors will find beautiful beaches, charming Greek villages, amazing views, blue-domed churches in the most scenic locations, unexplored bays, delicious Greek food, and much more. With a length of 11 miles and width of 6 miles, it is not a very big island, but it offers plenty of beaches for relaxation and many places to explore.
Visit and explore the Manganari Beach, Tomb of Homer, Kolitsani Beach, Tzamaria Beach, Church of Virgin Mary of the Cliff, Archeological Museum of Ios, Paralia Sapounochoma and much more.
3 nights in Naxos Island
The largest island in the Cyclades, Naxos is also the most fertile, growing olives, potatoes and citrus fruit on its hills. The capital is Naxos Town (Chora), on the northwest coast, with an endearing old town of meandering alleys and stairways.
Visit and explore the Portara, Old Town, Kastro, the beaches, Kouros of Apollonas, Mount Zas, Panagia Drosiani Church, Venetian Museum, Kouroi of Flerio, and so much more.

<b>Greece</b> is THE land of ancient sites and architectural treasures: the Acropolis in Athens, the amphitheater of Epidaurus, the reconstructed palace at Knossos, the belly button of the cosmos at Delphi, fallen columns galore on the sacred island of Delos, and frescoed Minoan palaces on Crete. But don't expect a visit there to be a sober study of the ancient world, the Greek propensity for partying dates back to Dionysus. Then there are 1400 islands to explore. Greece is much more than what you were taught at school or the predictable summer image of glorious sunsets and sandy beaches.
