Acropolis Ancient Greek Tour
Acropolis Ancient Greek Tour
Howdy there time-travelers and culture vultures! Strap on your sandals and grab a wreath of laurels, because we’re about to take a trip through ancient Greece with MIgreeCE – the ultimate guide to everything epic and historical!
Here’s the scene: you’re at the base of the Acropolis, feeling like a puny mortal in front of ancient gods. Your guide (who’s basically Socrates with a selfie stick) takes you up the sacred hill while telling stories of gods and heroes.
At the top, the Parthenon stands before you like Zeus’ summer pad – but with fewer lightning bolts and more marble columns. Seriously, it’s so massive even the pigeons are impressed! And the view? Let’s just say Aphrodite would be jealous of what you can see from up here.
But wait, there’s more to this Acropolis Ancient Greek Tour! Your guide (who’s basically a stand-up philosopher in a toga) keeps things funny while dropping knowledge bombs left and right. There isn’t a dull moment on this tour; whether it’s scandalous gossip from ancient Athens or weird quirks from Greek mythology.
Next stop: The Acropolis Museum – aka ancient Greece’s Louvre. Here you’ll find more old stuff than you can shake a gyros at – from beautiful statues to ancient pottery that puts your grandmother’s china cabinet to shame. It’ll feel like stepping into an uproarious history lesson thanks to your guide's witty commentary!
But we don’t stop at fun. Oh no, MIgreeCE is just getting started! After your Acropolis adventure, why not dive into some authentic Greek cuisine? We’re talking souvlaki, moussaka, enough feta cheese to make Zeus himself say “opa!”
So, if you're ready to explore the wonders of ancient Greece with a side of laughs, book your tour with MIgreeCE today. Trust us, it's an adventure that'll leave you feeling like a modern-day Odysseus – minus the sea monsters and pesky Cyclops, of course!
Island Hopping in the Cyclades
Island-Hopping Adventure in the Cyclades
Get ready for an epic Greek getaway like no other – an Island-Hopping Adventure in the Cyclades! Picture this: you and your group setting sail from Athens to the dreamy Cyclades islands. We're talking Mykonos, Santorini, Paros, and Naxos – each with its own twist of magic. And MIgreeCE makes all of that possible. They offer the most exciting activities in Greece you can imagine.
Island hopping in Greece offers a range of unique experiences, and we focus on quality over quantity. Instead of rushing through numerous islands, the aim here is to savor the best of them and relish a more laid-back adventure. Our carefully crafted one-week Cyclades itinerary highlights three islands, while the two-week option covers five. We recommend to allocate at least two days for Athens, your departure point. So you and your group can take it slow, and immerse yourself in the magic of Greece.
The enchanting star of Greek islands, Santorini, is a must for any island hopping journey. Its romantic white-washed villages hugging the Caldera's edge and the iconic blue-domed churches create the quintessential Greek postcard setting. Moving on, Mykonos, a renowned hotspot, boasts glamour, electrifying nightlife, chic boutiques, and luxury price tags. Its white landscapes echo Santorini's charm, but Mykonos adds a unique flavor with its stunning beaches.
Then there's Delos, the sacred gem of the Cyclades. This island boasts a captivating archaeological site, a journey into ancient Greek history. For those staying on Mykonos, a day trip to Delos is an excellent choice, offering a fascinating cultural adventure. Embrace the essence of each island, make memories, and let Greece work its magic on you.
Wine tasting in Santorini
Santorini Wine Tasting Tour
Are you an oenophile? Then prepare to have your taste buds transported into a world of heavenly delight courtesy of the Wine Tasting Tour in captivating Santorini! This is no ordinary tour by MIgreeCE; it is a sensual journey through vineyards bathed in sunshine and ancient wine making traditions.
Imagine being surrounded by beautiful Santorini landscapes, with green vineyards which stretch all the way to the Aegean Sea’s crystal-clear waters. The people who will be showing you around are locals who live for wine. That means that besides taking you on a guided tour of this place, they will also give away their closely guarded secrets about grape growing methods unique to Santorini and passed down through generations.
But let us first speak about wines from here. You can taste many superb wines from local grapes including dry white ones or velvety reds. And oh my God! – sunsets as seen against the background of sand dunes at Santorini Island.
As each drop fills your mouth, after that, you would discover how profound are these aromas & flavors which define Santorinian wines as nothing else but absolutely outstanding. However, remember it will not be only about wine -have some food that goes well with wine available locally served along.
So if you love pleasure or are simply a lover of fine things, then go take the Wine Tasting Tour in Santorini because I promise you wouldn’t forget such an experience in your life; reason enough for raising toast to Greek Paradise Enchantment. To good times and great friends and gods’ nectar!

Jet2 Adds 17 New Routes from Luton: New Routes, New Adventures, Same Old Luton (But Better!)
Get ready to pack your bags (and maybe your sunscreen) because Jet2 is about to make your travel dreams a whole lot easier! Starting April 1, 2025, Jet2 will officially launch operations from London Luton Airport, and it’s not just your average route expansion. Nope, this time, Jet2 is bringing flights to 17 destinations, including a few sunny spots like the Canary Islands and Balearic Islands. Oh, and did we mention three brand-new, exclusive routes to Girona, Verona, and Madeira? Yep, Luton just became the gateway to all things cultural, romantic, and breathtakingly beautiful.
Need help with your groups and incentives in Europe? Contact us!
Girona: History, Beaches, and the Best Way to Skip the Barcelona Crowds
Take advantage of Jet2’s weekly Sunday flights to Girona. Do not dread the long queues at Barcelona, as Girona is no different in looks but much less crowded. Even though there may not be as many people as in Barcelona, the “Barcelona look” is still present. You may drive to Costa Brava’s beaches in a matter of minutes after exploring ancient walls and frolicking at the magnificent Girona Cathedral. It’s a great combination of culture and a beach area, which is the best of both worlds.
Verona: A Little Romance, A Little Renaissance, A Lot of Pasta
Next up, Jet2 will be offering weekly Wednesday flights to Verona, Italy’s city of love, where the balcony from Romeo and Juliet still exists (no, not the one in your living room). But Verona is more than just a love story—this city is an architectural treasure chest with the iconic Arena di Verona (where you can see opera performances) and food so good it’ll make you wish you were born Italian. Whether you’re a history buff or a hopeless romantic, Verona has a slice of culture—and pizza—to make your trip unforgettable.
Madeira: Paradise Found (And It's Not Just the Wi-Fi)
For those who want a little more adventure with their relaxation, Jet2 is adding weekly Monday flights to Madeira, Portugal’s gorgeous island paradise. Whether you're hiking through lush mountains, exploring volcanic caves, or sipping on that famous Madeira wine (because, let’s be honest, you have to try it), this destination has it all. And don’t forget about the beautiful capital city, Funchal, where you can stroll through botanical gardens or haggle for local treasures in bustling markets. It’s like nature’s playground—but with better food.
Jet2’s Luton Expansion: More Jobs, More Flights, More Fun
This amazing expansion isn’t just good for your holiday – it is even better for the economic ecosystem of the region. So, expect more bustle at Luton’s airport as it has been revealed that there will be 125 new jobs available (and we don’t mean just the duty-free stores here).
Jet2’s focus on cheap, flexible flying to obscure places is making it easier than ever to holiday in places that don’t feature in glossy travel brochures, as the interest in short haul breaks around Europe continues to grow. Picture less popular places with tourist’ hotspots, more places that are off the beaten track and absolutely an easier time to reach them all thanks to the fact that London is relatively close to Luton.
So, What’s Next?
The recent Jet2 expansion to new destinations is part of a bigger picture in European travel. All this in time for you to book a vacation with new options from Girona, or Verona, or even Madeira, meaning there will now abound history, love-in-the-air, and adventure all at stellar value for your money spent.
Grab your bags (but just don’t take too much, you will have souvenirs you will be bringing back), and make preparations to welcome some of the heavenly sights in Europe courtesy Jet2 who are expanding. This will take place in April 2025.
Highlights Jet2 Adds 17 New Routes from Luton:
- Jet2 launches from Luton in April 2025.
- Exclusive routes to Girona, Verona, and Madeira.
- A grand total of 17 destinations and 36 weekly flights.
- Creating 125 new jobs—because everyone needs a vacation job, right?
Here's the full list of new destinations:
Mainland Spain
- Alicante: Up to four weekly flights (Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Sunday) – Because who needs a reason to visit the Costa Blanca more than four times a week?

- Reus: Up to two weekly flights (Monday, Thursday) – Just in case you need a little Catalan sunshine on a Monday or Thursday (because, let's face it, who doesn’t?).

-
Lanzarote: Up to two weekly flights (Tuesday, Friday) – Two times in a week, it will take you only one more flight to reach the volcanic sight and beach beauty.
-
Tenerife: Up to three flights per week – Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday – Because who wouldn’t want to fly to the largest of the Canary Islands three times a week?
Balearic Islands
- Ibiza: Up to two weekly flights (Monday, Friday) – Perfect for those who want to work hard, party harder.

Ryanair Launches New Winter Routes 2024
Ryanair Launches New Winter Routes 2024: Milan Gets More, Bergamo Gets Less, and Michael O'Leary Wants Your Surcharges Gone!
Italy’s favourite airline (and let's be honest, probably its loudest) Ryanair has big plans for winter 2024! Like a chef tossing pizza dough into the air, Ryanair is launching 10 new routes from Milan Malpensa Airport, whisking travelers off to sun-drenched Fuerteventura, the ancient ruins of Athens, the festive squares of Budapest, and… wait for it… the winter wonders of Tallinn. Yes, Estonia! So, pack your thermals and sunscreen, because Ryanair’s got you covered—Mallorca to Marrakech and everywhere in between. The 10 new winter routes from Milan Malpensa Airport are to Athens, Budapest, Paris, Fuerteventura, Krakow, Mallorca, Marrakech, Reggio Calabria, Rzeszow, and Tallinn.
If that wasn’t enough to get you rummaging through your sock drawer for your passport, Ryanair is also parking its eighth aircraft at Milan Malpensa. This move is set to boost their traffic by 10%, meaning 4.5 million eager passengers will be zipping around the continent, experiencing new cultures and, of course, Ryanair’s infamous legroom.
Bergamo's Bye-Bye to Seats
But not all Italian airports are basking in Ryanair’s wintery glow. Over at Milan Bergamo, it’s not all spritz and sunshine. Ryanair has decided to trim down its fleet there from 24 to 20 aircraft, causing a 5% decline in seat capacity. Why, you ask? Because Ryanair is redirecting its attention to airports that are friendlier to their bottom line (hey, it’s a business, folks).
Trieste & Reggio Calabria: The New Italian Darlings
With a twinkle in his eye, Michael O’Leary, Ryanair’s Group CEO, made it clear why Bergamo’s loss is Trieste and Reggio Calabria’s gain: municipal surcharges, baby! Airports in Friuli Venezia Giulia and Calabria have waved goodbye to these pesky fees, opening the floodgates to cheaper flights and more tourists—Ryanair tourists, to be specific.
O'Leary was quick to advocate for nationwide surcharge abolition, promising that if Italy ditches these charges at all its airports, Ryanair would happily throw $4 billion into the Italian economy. That’s right, 40 new aircraft, 250 new routes, and a whopping 1,500 jobs! In O’Leary’s words, "More planes, more jobs, and, of course, more of those iconic Ryanair announcements that you can barely understand over the crackle of the speaker."
Ryanair Launches New Winter Routes 2024
So, whether you're dreaming of Krakow’s medieval charm, Parisian cafes, or Reggio Calabria's southern Italian sunshine, Ryanair is making sure your winter is full of budget-friendly jet-setting. Just make sure you avoid the municipal surcharge. After all, O'Leary’s on a mission to make Italy surcharge-free, one flight at a time!
