Summer is loading in Greece...
Would you like to stay somewhere really special, like in one of these "Sirmata", traditional waterfront houses, specifically used as fishermen's warehouses in days gone by? It can be arranged!
Contact me for the where and the how and package it up with ferry tickets, transfers, tours and fabulous eats.

Well, as the season progresses and now have two escorted tours under my belt, today is the start of the unescorted or FIT'S (Fully Independent Tours), with my first two guests arriving in Athens this evening from Nashville, TN. ✈️

An amazing, eclectic and romantic week staying a couple of nights on the beautiful Athens Riviera, then onto Monemvasia, staying in the most luxurious of surroundings for a few nights, including some wonderful interactive experiences, wine tasting, olive oil tasting, beekeeping, and a cooking class with a Michelin Star Chef... 🍷🫒🍜🐝

The romance 🩷 continues for three blissful nights on the gorgeous island of Kythera before heading back home.

A curated and exclusive trip with private transport and private guides all the way through, 5*accommodation, handpicked restaurants and unique experiences!

Thank you 🙏 to everyone who is an integral part of this trip for this lovely couple, and to the person who sent the business my way...You all know who you are!!

Quote: "We are going insane with excitement with the itinerary you've put together" 😊

Good evening friends...

Behold the island of Alonissos ~ Αλόννησος, found in the group of islands called the Sporades or North Aegean Islands, it is located in the prefecture of Magnesia....

It's a tiny island with an authentic feel, with only access to it by ferry from the mainland from the port of Agios Konstsntinos via Skiathos, or from the island of Evia.

Alonissos boasts the largest protected Bio Diverse Marine Park in Europe, with stunning beaches, crystal clear seas and the cutest residents as you can see....
🙂 🦭🐬🐢

For those of you who like diving, discover one of Greece's ancient shipwrecks, the 2,500 year old Peristera Wreck, with its thousands (30,000 - 40,000) of amphorae⚱️resting on the sea bed at a depth of 30 metres.

Taking all holiday requests for Greece 🇬🇷💙🧿

A little contemporary music from Greece with stunning scenery 😉
The song Thalassaki (little sea) is an adaptation of a very old island song by the wives and loved ones of fisherman while waiting for their safe return from the sea....Enjoy!!

You could be forgiven for thinking this could be Switzerland, Austria, Canada??........It's Northern Greece's Pindus Mountains in the region of Epirus.
The name of this village is in a cheese...!
An amazing region for all seasons ☀️🍁❄️🌷
There is still time for a cosy winter holiday in a place many wouldn't think of

I just got home yesterday from an amazing Blue Cruise on the Turkish Coast from Fethiye to Kekova and everything in between ~ Oludeniz, Kas, Kalkan, Gemiler Island, Butterfly Valley & more...⛵️

Cruising on a gulet is a bespoke and personal holiday with your own crew, Chef and Captain.You can also plan your own itinerary, meals and drinks...🧿

This was an itinerary with epic scenery, crystal blue waters, ancient sunken cities and Lycian rock tombs, crusader castles, vibrant colours everywhere and with kind and hospitable people 💙

My prenights before sailing on the Maske 2 gave me an opportunity to view other vessels at the marina and at sea, as well as contacting the owners with summer 2023 in mind.

I will be offering some individualised packages which I will design with you and for you for a unique experience.

Most of the itineraries begin either in Bodrum, Marmaris or Fethiye and can be chartered for family holidays, business meetings, yoga retreats and other special events.

If you would like to learn more on how to plan a perfect gulet escape, please contact me (Denise)
to begin your Blue Cruise journey..

A wonderful holiday option!....your own captain and crew, you decide where you go, what you eat when and where. Drop anchor in a secluded cove for an evening swim and then a candlelit dinner on
board in the privacy of your own gulet.

The article has a link with a redacted customised itinerary with a combined land tour and gulet Blue Voyage Cruise...

Amongst the many splendours of Turkey I'd discovered over many years of travelling to this amazing country, but hadn't had a chance to experience, sailing on a traditional gulet was always high on my wish list.  On the back of a family reunion it is about to be checked off with a big green tick!
