Chios Tour

Program Valid for Wednesday Departures

🌅 Day 1 | Departure from Çeşme – Southern Island Tour (Armolia – Mesta – Pyrgi)

Check-in and passport procedures begin at 07:45 at the check-in office at Çeşme Customs Port entrance. The ferry departs at 08:30, and after an approximately 30-minute crossing across the Aegean, we arrive in Chios. Our guide meets us at Chios Port and the island tour begins.

Our first stop is Armolia Village, famous for its handmade ceramics, where we take a short break at a ceramics workshop.

Next, we visit Mesta, one of the best-preserved medieval castle-villages, where we walk through its labyrinth-like narrow streets, stop for coffee in the village square, and see the Taxiarchis Church.

We then continue to Pyrgi Village, known for its geometrically patterned houses, where our guide explains the local decorative technique called “Xysta.”

After the tour, free time is given for lunch at a seaside taverna, where guests can enjoy fresh seafood and mezes.

At the end of the tour, we transfer to the hotel and check in.

🚤 Day 2 | Northern Island Tour (Tabakika – Daskalopetra – Langada – Agios Isidoros)

After breakfast at the hotel, the Northern Island tour begins.

Our first stop is Tabakika, home to the island’s iconic seaside historic windmills, where we take a photo break with Aegean views.

Next, we visit Daskalopetra, believed to be where Homer wrote his works — a rocky site turned into a school by his students in the 6th century BC, one of the island’s most significant historical and cultural landmarks.

We stop for lunch in Langada, a charming fishing village, where guests can enjoy fresh seafood, mezes, and local delicacies at seaside tavernas.

On the way back, we take a photo stop at Agios Isidoros Church, one of Chios’s landmark structures, built over the sea — according to legend, mastic resin is associated with this saint.

The evening is free time after the tour.

🚤 Day 3 | Chios – Return to Çeşme

After breakfast at the hotel, the day is free for our guests.

In the evening, we meet at the hotel reception at the time set by our guide for the return transfer.
