Under the radar..........
Chios is the fifth largest island in Greece, yet one which many people still have not heard of.
With a relaxing atmosphere, Chios is most famous for its mastic, which is an origin protected ingredient, another one of the popular drinks in Greece. Try a Mastihito – a mojito made with Mastica instead of rum.
The island is home to a population of around 53,000 but because of its size you wouldn’t know it.
It has a lot of history, with tales of pirates but also claims to be the birthplace of Homer (who had his Odyssey).
The majority of the accommodation is to be found fairly close to Chios Town, from which villages spring up as you head along the coast.
These villages are now starting to develop as resorts and have delicious tavernas and great beaches.
It is possible to do day trips to the tiny islands of Psara and Oinousses.
With so much to do, the only problem will be deciding what and when!
Please be aware that due to ferry and flight timings, a stay overnight in Athens may be required in either direction.

Happy People
The team have booked three very different holidays for me, two for a couple and one for a group of nine. They listened to our requirements and used their expert knowledge of Greece to provide us with several options from which to choose. I found them to be very professional, nothing is too much trouble and they strive to find a good deal. I would not hesitate to recommend them. The business has booked me a few different holidays ranging from 2 weeks away in the sun to City Breaks. They have a great knowledge and understanding of your needs and requirements when booking a holiday. They always try to accommodate your budget and work extremely hard to get you what you're asking for. They have an extremely good knowledge of the Greek Islands and never fail when recommending specific places. I would always recommend the team as they are helpful and professional at all times. |
Fantastic service. I explained what kind of holiday I was looking for and my budget and they came up with different options to choose from. Nothing was too much trouble and the communication was first class. I would definitely recommend and would not hesitate in using this 5 star service again.
