Travel to Greece & Paris for 16 days – The Itinerary

by Simon Ng on July 14, 2008



I have not been blogged about travel for quite a long time. It’s that awesome iPhone that takes up nearly all my posts since I bought it last Oct. Now, it’s time to talk about my travel (of course, I traveled with my iPhone).

My wife and I are just back from Paris. We had a 16 days trip to Greece & Paris. iPhone & Chocolate cake oversee Caldera at SantoriniI’ve spent quite a great deal of time & efforts to plan this trip. This is not the first time for me to travel both destinations. But it’s still not so straightforward to come up with a perfect itinerary for a 2-weeks trip. So, I thought it’d be great to share my trip with you. This may not be the perfect itinerary to you. However, you may take it as reference when you’re planning a similar trip.

Hotel Omiros at MykonosIt’ll be too lengthy to write up my trip with one post. I prefer to break it up into several posts. The very first one in the series is the itinerary. This itinerary is not tightly packed with places of visit, activites and things to do that needs you to wake up at 7 in the morning and back to hotel at 11pm. It’s a more relax one and we really enjoy it!
