Leros island in Greece

At the end of May, I got invited to join a group of journalists to a press trip to Leros island. The trip was organized by the Greek Tourism Board in Vienna in collaboration with Aegean Airlines. I’ve never been to Leros island before, so it was a great opportunity for me to explore one more Greek island.

Our stay was short though. We were there just for the weekend. Therefore, I don’t have plenty of photos to share with you! But I am happy at least that I can offer you an aerial perspective of view.

Nope, I didn’t buy a drone unfortunately. Not yet! From the Castle of Pandeli, you can enjoy a great view to the landscape, the sea and the villages of Leros

And let me tell you, the lack of mass tourism? It’s a total game-changer. You get to soak up all that beauty without fighting through hordes of tourists. Plus, let’s talk prices.

I’m telling you, it’s a game-changer. The food? Out of this world. Fresh seafood, Greek flavors, and that warm hospitality that makes you feel right at home. It’s the kind of place that leaves a mark on your taste buds and your heart.

So, what are you waiting for? Pack your bags, hop on a ferry, and get ready for the adventure of a lifetime. Leros Island is calling, and trust me, you don’t want to miss out.
