🌿 THE DODECANESE: AN ISLAND FOR EVERONE 🇬🇷

Scattered across the south-eastern Aegean, close to the Turkish coast, the Dodecanese islands offer a fascinating mix of history, landscapes and traditional island life. And while Rhodes may be the best known, there are plenty of quieter corners to discover.

🏛️ Rhodes – Step inside the medieval walls of the UNESCO-listed Old Town, explore ancient sites and enjoy the island’s beautiful coastline.

🙏 Patmos – Follow the island’s spiritual heritage from the Cave of the Apocalypse to the hilltop Monastery of St John.

🧗 Kalymnos – A rugged island with a strong seafaring tradition, clear waters and world-renowned rock-climbing routes.

🌊 Symi – Arrive into one of the Aegean’s most spectacular harbours, framed by colourful neoclassical buildings rising up the hillsides.

🥾 Tilos – Slow the pace on this peaceful island, where walking trails lead through wild landscapes, tiny villages and secluded beaches.

🌋 Nisyros – Wander through volcanic landscapes, explore atmospheric villages such as Mandraki and see the island’s dramatic volcanic crater up close.

The Dodecanese isn’t just about ticking off islands. It’s about discovering their differences – from medieval cities and volcanic landscapes to quiet beaches, mountain paths and long lunches beside the sea.

Which Dodecanese island would you choose? 🇬🇷

COSTA RICA - group tour or independent exploration🤔🤔🤔either way I have you covered 😃🇨🇷🌴

Costa Rica is an incredible little country that packs an astonishing amount into just 19,700 square miles - roughly the size of Denmark!

Think rainforest, cloud forest, volcanoes, inland canals, rivers and beautiful beaches, alongside an amazing array of wildlife including sloths, monkeys, macaws, turtles, caiman and armadillos. 🦥🐒🦜🐢

Around 25% of Costa Rica is protected as national park or protected area, making it an incredible destination for nature, wildlife and adventure.

And the best thing is, you can explore Costa Rica independently. I can organise a tailor-made package around exactly what you want to see and do.

Alternatively, if you’re looking for a more affordable option, I can arrange a small-group tour. Some focus on families, while others are for adults aged 16+, so there are options to suit different travellers. You’ll have a guide telling you about all the wildlife along the way. 🩵

🩵 CLASSIC COSTA RICA 🩵

The Classic Costa Rica itinerary is a popular option for first-timers and includes the island’s most popular attractions and finishes with four nights of beachfront relaxation. ☀️🏖️

Sample independent itinerary:
☀️ 12 nights | 3 January 2027
Other dates available

✈️ Flights from London from £4,116pp

🚗 Private transfers — land & boat

✨ Guided tours as detailed in the itinerary

🔹 1 night at Bougainvillea Hotel, San José — B&B

🔹 2 nights at Pachira Lodge, Tortuguero National Park — Full Board

🔹 3 nights at Arenal Manoa Hot Springs Resort, Arenal — B&B

🔹 2 nights at Fondavela Mountain Hotel, Monteverde — B&B

🔹 4 nights at Tango Mar Beachfront Boutique Hotel & Villas — B&B

🩵 The above price is the total package price payable to Sunvil.

If Costa Rica is somewhere you’ve always wanted to visit, get in touch and let me help you plan your perfect trip - independently or as part of a small group. 🇨🇷🩵

🇬🇷 Some of Greece’s most elegant islands are just a short journey from Athens.

Poros, Spetses and Hydra remain firm favourites.

Each has its own character, from the pine-covered landscapes and waterfront cafés of Poros, to the sophisticated charm of Spetses and the timeless, car-free streets of Hydra.

Take a 10-night island-hopping itinerary combining all three, with 3 nights on Poros, 3 on Spetses and 4 on Hydra, including return flights to Athens, accommodation, transfers and ferry tickets.

Work with me and I’ll tailormake the trip with hotels that suit your taste and budget! ❤️
