Mykonos

Beauty can be found in many places on Mykonos. Gorgeous beaches are an obvious starting point. Which will lead you naturally to striking views and jaw dropping sunsets. It’s here we need to take time to appreciate the arresting architecture of Little Venice. Perhaps ponder the charm of a cliff-perched taverna or the uber-luxe, and super chic interior design of the beach clubs. Don’t even get us started on the many, many beautiful people that flock in by yacht every sum-mer. Even the glimmering hulls of those multi-million dollar vessels add a certain something to the shimmering waters. Too much? Yes it can be.

Mykonos by night: the best of Mykonos nightlife

Mykonos has an infamous nightlife scene. This much we know. Though choosing where to party the night away into the small hours is a big deal. Happily, though, the nightlife isn’t all about clubbing and 4am stops at a souvlaki grill. Yes, there are super clubs waiting to welcome you with open arms and more than a few shots – but there are also glamorously camp bars, beach clubs and refined restaurants too.

Battle of the islands: Mykonos vs Santorini

If you’re mulling over the idea of a Greek getaway with no particular plans, Santorini and Mykonos are both VERY appealing. Sun-drenched beaches, coastal cuisine and seas in just about every shade of blue are staples of both islands – so there’s little to separate them there. The only way to choose is to delve deeper into some island essentials.

Salzburg

It’s no secret that this city is all about maximising its Mozart and musical links. It flip flops between inviting you to take a suitably lux pew for a concerto or lining up for a borderline schmaltzy take on the Sound of Music. Do both during your visit, and you’ll be well rewarded.
