Hi guys

Im off to Europe in July and have planned to do a 28 day topdeck tour before meeting my family in London for a few weeks in the UK and Ireland.

I have 7 days in between the topdeck tour and when the family arrive in London so have decided that I'd like to head to Greece/Turkey and do some island hopping. I'll be travelling on my own so I want to do some kind of guided tour but at the moment I cant seem to find anything suitable for someone my age (27). Contiki and Topdeck dont have anything that fits in with the time limits and parameters and the tours that do seem to fit do seem to be for older people (a globus tour).

Does anyone have any suggestions? Or am I wrong about globus?

Tempo Holidays have cruises that may have something that suits your time frames and tours etc. For example they have an 7 night Cruise Greece and Turkey Cruise.

Other companies include Kumuka & Adventure World.

It's pretty easy to just catch ferries around the islands. It wont take up too much more of your time to organise.

But, if you want a ready made group of friends a small group tour is the way to go. Just stay away from the large loud annoying groups who tend to bring their own cultures with them and you might as well visit their country!

Do a bit of research on the different islands before you go, wiki travel has info on most of them. Many of the Greek Islands have become just party islands as they are a popular with the `just finished high school/ uni and want to celebrate crowd.` There is still lots to see though and more unspoilt areas it just takes a bit of planning.
