Greeks love food. And that is a good thing. Because otherwise holidays in Greece would certainly be only half as pleasurable. The delicious Greek specialities themselves already remind you of holidays.

Meet your friends at the one of the many traditional taverns and order the popular vine leaves, the so called Dolmades, as a starter. Also recommendable are the spicy sausages (Loukaniko), Tzatziki or Spanokopita – a pie filled with spinach and cheese, wrapped in filo pastry. Be delighted by the great choice of bread, fish roe or Skordalia dips, consisting of mashed potatoes and garlic.

For the main course we suggest to try Mousakas, a type of casserole with Zucchini, minced meat and potatoes, whose juicy and delicious taste stimulates body and soul. Souvlaki on the contrary pampers the palate. These spits of pork, whose marinade has a wonderful smell of oregano, lemon, salt and pepper, by the way are THE highlight of the Greek cooks.

And for dessert? Try Halvas. They convince with their nutty, fine flavour. You should also taste Baklavas, a delicious pastry made of walnuts, almonds and pistachios or Greek yoghurt with honey, nuts and amarettini. What would fit better to this than a Mokka for a sweet-bitter combination? Or maybe you would like to sweeten your journey with Mavrodaphe, a Greek sweet wine?

No matter how you will decide: you should in no case miss this moment on your trip. „Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food“ – Socrates once said, and what better place to do this than in Greece, the country of the culinary temptations? Therefore combine an exciting and relaxing journey to Greece with freedom, zest for life and treat. This is made possible by tourmix.eu. Choose from our beautiful island hopping and sailing trips!

The most famous paradise for island hopping worldwide are the Greek Cycladic islands. The tours to the Cyclades in our portfolio offer a selection between the most beautiful of these islands.

As an example we are now presenting the probably most popular tour through the Cyclades. You will get the ferry tickets either directly upon arrival or one day before at the respective hotel. You will be driven to the port on time prior to each ferry trip and after arriving on the other island the tour guides will meet you immediately. They will also accompany you to your individually selected hotel.

Usually this tour begins with the direct arrival at the airport of Mykonos. There the indescribable island feeling will thrill you at once. Among the benefits of the holiday paradise Mykonos are more than 3.000 hours of sunshine per year, golden sandy beaches with crystal clear water, as well as the traditional architecture of the Cyclades with the typical main colours white and blue. Furthermore there is the immediate vicinity to the ancient island Delos, whose ruins attract innumerable visitors as well. The nightlife on Mykonos is unique. Here party and fun join glamour and high society. In order to discover as much as possible, we recommend you to stay at this exciting place for about 3 days.

From Mykonos you will move on to Paros, where a stay of 3 days is ideal as well. By ferry you can reach your next holiday destination within 2 to 4 hours depending on the connection. The island presents itself as a holiday paradise with beautiful beaches, villages adorned with flowers and many historic sights. Especially the neighbouring island Antiparos is a fantastic excursion destination thanks to its white beaches. Paros demonstrates flexibility with calm corners to relax and places with a quite active nightlife.

After these exciting days you will continue to Naxos. This island; as opposed to the rest of the Cyclades; is very lush and can be reached within less than one hour thanks to the ferry. Besides the green and versatile landscape, the white beaches are well worth seeing. They rank among the most beautiful of the Cyclades.
