Venture to Kos for ultimate beach relaxation, a tour of the volcanic island of Nisyros and a three-island sightseeing cruise.
About Your Trip
This DreamTrip takes you to the
powdery sands of Kos Island, where you’ll be treated to a bottle of wine
and fruit basket in your room upon arrival. Relax during a 30-minute
back massage at Helona Resort’s on-site spa then rejuvenate in the
heated indoor swimming pool. Explore all that the Aegean Sea has to
offer with water sports provided by the resort or stay on shore and rest
on the beach beneath the Grecian sun. Tour the volcanic island of
Nisyros, home to a diverse array of unique flora and fauna. Marvel at
the volcano’s massive crater and visit the Monastery of Panagia Spiliani
on your full-day excursion of the island. Later in your DreamTrip,
enjoy lunch on a sightseeing cruise to three picturesque islands north
of Kos: Kalymnos, Plati and Pserimos.

Kos is a Dodecanese island known for its sandy beaches, medieval
castles, Roman relics and ancient temples. These include the
15th-century fortress known as the Castle of the Knights. Other popular
attractions on the island include the 3rd-century Casa Romana villa, the
ruins of Ancient Agora and the Kos Archaeological Museum. The first
recorded mention of the island’s name is found in Homer’s Iliad, a
classical epic poem written in the 8th century B.C. This scenic jewel in
the turquoise Aegean Sea boasts a temperate climate, Ottoman and
Venetian architecture, and a wide variety of interesting sightseeing
destinations.
