Cruise Fee for Mykonos & Santorini
From the 21st July 2025, the Greek government (similarly to many other tourist destinations) will introduce a new fee defined “Cruise Fee”. This fee is designed to support local infrastructure, promote sustainable tourism and enhance visitor experience. Such fee is mandatory and applies to all cruise guests, regardless of age, for each day they will disembark in a Greek port.
 
The amount of the tax varies depending on the season and the port as follows.
 
June 1 - September 30
• Mykonos and Santorini: €20 per person
• Other ports: €5 per person
 
October 1 - October 31, April 1 - May 31
• Mykonos and Santorini: €12 per person
• Other ports: €3 per person

• Other ports: €1 per person

Greek Accommodation Tax
*As part of its comprehensive strategy to finance the reconstruction efforts following devastating forest fires and floods, the Greek government has introduced a new accommodation tax, which has officially taken effect on January 2024. Known as the “climate resilience levy”, this tax represents a significant departure from the previous bed tax and is structured to be paid by tourists at their lodging upon check-in. This fee will vary depending on the travel season.

Other important information

TOUR GUIDE VS. TOUR LEADER
Tour Guide
Often locals with intimate knowledge of an area, its culture, and history. Their role entails providing commentary, routing the tour, and seeing that people have a good time. They are a licensed, qualified expert who supplies specific information on the history, art, architecture and culture of the city/village/attraction where they are guiding the tour. The guide meets the group at the required place and leaves it at the end of the tour; they do not travel with the group. 

Tour Leader
An experienced person tasked with ensuring the smooth operation of tours, as well as providing practical support to passengers throughout the whole trip. Their role primarily includes assisting with accommodation, transportation between locations, and communication with tour guides at each stop. A tour leader may provide general guidance around a city or village and offer information on the place visited on the bus. However, they are not required to have specific art, architecture, or historical knowledge. They are not allowed to provide a guided tour or commentary of a city/village/attraction once there and, if caught doing so, can be fined. 

Please note: Tour leaders/guides are not a standard inclusion in all travel offers. Tour leaders/guides will only be made available when required to enhance the experience of the destination featured. 

CLIMATE & AVERAGE TEMPERATURES
Italy
From late May through to September, Northern Italy’s climate varies significantly between the cities and the alpine regions. In Milan and Venice, late spring brings pleasantly warm daytime highs of 20°C to 24°C, though May and early June can still see occasional showers. As the season progresses into July and August, these cities become hot and quite humid, with average daytime temperatures frequently sitting between 28°C and 32°C.

By contrast, the alpine region of the Dolomites offers a cooler, more temperate climate. Summer daytime highs in the mountain valleys typically range from 18°C to 25°C, with notably cooler conditions at higher altitudes, such as the Seceda ridge, and chilly nighttime lows around 10°C to 12°C. Afternoon thunderstorms are a common occurrence in the mountains during mid-summer, so layering is essential. By September, temperatures across all northern regions begin to cool, offering crisp, clear days with lower humidity that are perfect for outdoor sightseeing.

Greece & Croatia
During the period from May to July, Greece, encompassing the popular islands of Santorini and Corfu as well as mainland Katakolon, transitions from pleasantly warm to hot summer weather, consistently offering abundant sunshine and very little rain. In May, all three destinations are comfortably warm, with daytime highs generally between 20°C and 24°C and minimal rainfall, making it an ideal time for exploration. By June, temperatures rise notably across the region, with average daytime highs typically reaching 25°C to 30°C. The peak of summer arrives in July, bringing the hottest and driest conditions, where daytime temperatures frequently soar to between 27°C and 33°C, especially in mainland areas like Katakolon, and rainfall becomes exceptionally rare. Throughout these months, warm nights prevail, ensuring perfect conditions for outdoor dining and activities, though sun protection and hydration are essential.

Weather
We always suggest referring to an online source for the most up-to-date weather information for your destination/s.

A Moderate level of fitness will be required. 
Expect a moderate pace of touring with a focus on guided tours that may include full days with extended activity, guided city tours or nature walks. You will require a general level of fitness for unassisted navigation of stairs and inclines, longer distances with possible periods of standing when visiting sites, walking on sloping, uneven ground or elevations. You will be responsible for your own luggage and have the ability to board all modes of transport without assistance. Please note: Many areas may be inaccessible to wheelchairs or mobility scooters, where the unassisted use of personal walking sticks and other aids may be required. 
Please note: It is expected that every traveller must be self-reliant and able to undertake all aspects of their own travel. Please speak to your booking agent about your personal circumstances and any assistance requirements to ensure this tour is right for you.
Please note: If you have any concerns, please consult your healthcare provider prior to purchase/travel.

Sightseeing:
Please note: If entry to a site is affected by changes in operating hours or public holiday closures, your itinerary, where possible, may be adjusted, or a similar activity will be offered in its place (subject to availability).

Shopping: 
Shopping overseas can be a daunting and confusing experience, especially when there is a language barrier. Please be very cautious when foreign currencies and prices are involved. If paying by credit card, please pay close attention to the amount you are being charged and keep all your receipts. 
Do not make any purchases you are not comfortable with or feel pressured into. If you are uncertain or need assistance with the language barrier, please seek assistance from your Tour Guide/Leader.
Please refer to our Terms and Conditions regarding shopping for further information.

Visas

European Union Entry/Exit System (EES)
From October 12, 2025, a new European Entry System (EES) replaced the manual passport-stamping process for non-EU travellers. Upon arrival in the Schengen area, Australian and New Zealand passport holders will have their fingerprints recorded and a photograph taken. Their entry and exit dates will be electronically registered. No previous action is required, but please be aware of longer wait times at border entry. From 10 April 2026, the EES will be fully operational at all external border crossing points of all the European countries (Schengen area) using the system.

European Travel Information & Authorisation System (ETIAS)
As an extension of the EES implementation introduced in 2025, ETIAS travel authorisation is a mandatory entry requirement for visa-exempt nationals travelling to any of these 30 European countries, including Australian and New Zealand citizens, that will be introduced in 2026. We advise you to monitor smartraveller.gov.au closer to your departure to ensure you are up to date on the requirements at the time of entry.

Important: 
• Please start arranging your visa three weeks before departure to account for any delays due to consulate operating hours.
• Visa rules are subject to change. Please check with the nearest embassy, consulate or immigration department of the destination/s you are visiting once you receive your travel documentation to ensure you have the most up to date information.
• It is your responsibility to be travel-ready and ensure that you are aware and comply with any destination or travel requirements, including the validity of all required travel documents.
• Passengers who are not Australian citizens must also check with the respective consulate or visa agency to determine what their visa requirements are and what personal identification is required.
• It is also important to note that some areas of employment, such as journalism, government authorities and charity organisations, may have additional restrictions in applying for visas. This may, in turn, affect the type of application required.

Travel insurance 

Embarking on your next trip is exciting, and while you hope the unexpected does not happen, it is best to be prepared. We strongly recommend you take out travel insurance when making your booking. Whether it’s a potential medical emergency, a flight cancellation, a delayed suitcase, or an unforeseen event, it's important to ensure you're adequately protected.
