"One week or two?" is a question we are often asked.  If you have crew not used to living on boats, then one week is usually a good start!  However, to truly see the Ionian at its best, then a two week holiday should seriously be considered. 

The beauty of a two week holiday is that you do not have to keep moving every day.  If you end up in a beautiful little village and you wonder what is over that hill and would like to take a walk, then you can stay an extra day and take that walk.  You can even hire cars or mopeds to go and explore the islands.

If you are just there for one week, you will probably want to set off and see the next place on your itinerary. 

You can also get further afield on a two week holiday and explore the islands in more detail - how about one week in the south Ionian and the second week exploring Paxos and Corfu in the North?

Another point to consider is how long it takes you to settle in to your new surroundings.  It takes me at least 3 days to fully unwind and appreciate that I am on holiday.  Taking charge of an unfamiliar yacht may mean that it will take you longer to get comfortable and fully relaxed, and in those instances, two weeks is far better than one!

Of course a two week holiday is more expensive than a one week holiday, but we do give discounts for a two week holiday and you are only paying for one flight, which makes it more cost effective.
