Athens, it’s good to be back. 🏛️✈️🇬🇷

Starting this FAM with a surprise Polaris upgrade (because sleep is luxury), checking into the iconic Hotel Grande Bretagne, and soaking in that unmistakable blend of ancient history meets modern city life.

This program is just kicking off…follow along the journey ahead as we explore Paros, Santorini, and Crete!

🇬🇷 Counting down: One month until I’m back in Greece!

Next month’s educational opportunity, hosted by one of my favorite luxury travel partners, features a lineup of islands I can’t wait to visit: Paros, Santorini, & Crete.
While I will certainly enjoy taking in the views, my primary mission on these scouting trips is to build on the experience, expertise, and connections that allow Staple Travel to specialize in curating truly exceptional Mediterranean escapes.

What’s on for this trip:
⛵ Paros: Wandering the whitewashed alleys of Naoussa, and exploring the historic Venetian castle and harbor.
🌅 Santorini: Vetting cliffside accommodations, exploring ancient Minoan ruins, and tasting volcanic vintages at sunset.
🍷 Crete: Walking the ancient halls of Knossos Palace, olive oil tasting, and taking a traditional fishing boat to explore the former l***r colony and fortress on Spinalonga Island.

💬 Dreaming of a Mediterranean getaway? DM and follow along in October!

Some journeys are unforgettable because of both behind-the-scenes access and the people you share those moments with.

For one of our recent multi-generational families (ranging from ages 5 to 70+!), their time together in Rome and Tuscany was filled with cherished memories, and a private villa “straight out of a dream!”

“Being able to open the doors, turn on the lights, and have the Vatican essentially to ourselves was incredibly special... you could really feel the emotion of the experience.”

🔑 VIP Vatican Keymaster Tour: Opening the doors and lighting up the historic halls ahead of the morning crowds.

🎈 Tuscan Sky Flight: Rising through the clouds during a sunrise hot air balloon ride over the rolling hills. “absolutely magical... it felt like something out of a movie.”

🍝 Local Culinary Immersion: Tasting their way through Siena and gathering around the table for a warm, private cooking class with the most welcoming hostesses.

Crafting unforgettable journeys for special families like this one to experience together is truly what it’s all about! 🇮🇹
