Geotoura – Hotel concept
When we include a hotel in our programme, it is not only a high standard of quality that is important to us. We prefer typical local accommodation, often boutique hotels with a special ambience. They emphasise the character of an individual trip: Panoramic views, particularly lovely furnishings, a location in historic centres, no mass tourism and, of course, exceptionally friendly hosts – these are important criteria for us.
We divide our hotels into four separate Geotoura categories. Of course, you have the choice and can also combine the categories on one trip.
Boutique Hotels – Four categories
Encantador (“Charming”): Our most affordable option. Lovingly furnished rooms that offer everything the discerning traveller expects.
Especial (“Special”): Hotels with a special ambience – historic palaces, monasteries, haciendas or beach hotels with exceptional charm. Perfect for the classic cultural tour.
Extraordinario (“Extraordinary”): Luxurious hotels in excellent locations and with the highest level of comfort, often in centuries-old aristocratic palaces, old oil mills or haciendas.
Luna de Miel (“honeymoon”): For the honeymoon – span. Luna de miel – or if you want to treat yourself to something out of the ordinary …
Character of this travel idea
Experience culture
Stroll through the historic streets of Athens. Let yourself be seduced by the scents of its oriental-style markets. Visit ancient Greece at the Acropolis before entering another world on your round trip to the Cyclades.
You will be greeted by Paros, the island of ancient monasteries, five of which are still inhabited today. Discover the time of the Venetians and other peoples on Naxos with the mighty castle, the striking residential towers and the enigmatic statues, which you will discover everywhere on your walks across the island. Incidentally, the Portara, the stone logo of National Geographic, is also located here.
Finally, the volcanic island of Santorini with its almost black beaches, from which the whitewashed houses of its small villages literally shine out.”
Experience nature
On your tour of the Cyclades, you will discover marvels of the sea: the Kolymbithres. These bizarre yet almost soft-looking granite rock formations are the work of forces from the earth’s interior and the waves that make the beaches of Paros a fascinating experience.
No less impressive are the cliffs of Naxos, which in some places look as if giants have carefully stacked stone discs on top of each other. Finally, on Santorini you can trace the island’s volcanic origins as you walk over the black, rusty brown or light grey stone that bears witness to the eons.
Which landscape particularly appeals to you? Simply decide for yourself on your trip and let your soul dangle a little longer in your favourite place.
Cyclades - culinary delights
The sun-kissed Cyclades produce a wealth of fruit and vegetables, as well as excellent wines. Each island has its own character. Try the tasty psevdokeftedes on Santorini, tomato balls or cherry peas. On Naxos, enjoy the island’s cheese specialities or beef and goat meat with local vegetables, while on Paros you can expect typical maritime cuisine.
After such a sumptuous meal, an ouzo or perhaps a kitro on Naxos or a souma on Paros is just the thing. Do you like sweets? Then you should try koufeto, almonds glazed with honey, or melitinia, a pastry with mizithra cheese and honey. Your trip to the Cyclades will also be an unforgettable culinary experience.
The authentic Cyclades
Paros is home to a very special treasure that only reveals its soul from June to September: the Butterfly Valley. The green valley with its refreshing stream takes its name from the strikingly marked moths that populate this divine spot of earth by the millions in summer.
Experience the fascinating spectacle of the countless butterflies in the light of the setting sun and dream yourself away for a few moments in a wonderful fairytale forest.
