Amorgos
This episode of My Greek Odyssey will see Peter visiting three islands, each with their own unique stories. It all begins on Amorgos, a mountainous landmass that despite its pretty scenery, numerous beaches and quaint villages, is yet to have been overwhelmed by the forces of mass tourism. Of particular note is a spectacular monastery, unlike any other place of worship you’ll see. Peter will also be visiting the remote and sparsely inhabited islands of Levitha and Kinaros, where life is a complete contrast to that of the populous neighbouring landmasses.

Amorgos to Ios
This episode sees Peter returning to Amorgos, after spending a couple days exploring some of the nearby islands. He’s going to be visiting some of the best local eateries, spending plenty of time checking out the beaches, as well as digging a little deeper into the island’s history. Plus, Kyriako is going to reveal his famous paximadia recipe. From there, Peter is headed west to Ios, to begin telling the story of an island that’s known as a party place, but has so much more to it.

Ios to Sikinos
Last time Peter started exploring the island of Ios, and with so much to see and do, it’s only natural that he’s spending another few days here. This episode sees Peter going from the sea to the summit, as he visits ancient ruins from as far back as the bronze age, as well as visiting a traditional, family owned cheesery, that’s been in operation for several generations. From Ios, he’s then headed to Sikinos, an island that not many tourists know about, but once you see the place, you’ll be adding it to your list of must-see destinations.

Sikinos to Folegandros
In the final episode of the series, Peter will be finishing his time on Sikinos, an island few tourists have heard of. The last stop is a visit to one of the most remarkable monasteries in the Aegean, before upping anchor and heading west to Folegandros. It’s a bit like a smaller, quieter version of Santorini, with epic sunsets, beautiful architecture and more remote parts of the island that your average traveller never explores. We’ve saved some of the best bits of Greece for last, and can’t wait to show you!
