You may find that some of the ferry companies switch to their “winter schedule” in mid-September. That means a whole lot fewer ferries to choose from. This is the first of the on-line travel agencies that comes up with a google search. Since it represents several ferry lines it should give you a good idea of what’s available, when. http://www.greekferr…

Picking two islands that are on opposite sides of the Greek mainland makes this particularly difficult…..

You might also look for cheap flights….

I think this is too late, but from Corfu to athens you have to take a ferry from corfu to Igomenitsa and then a 5 or 6 hour bus ride to athens. I think. it might have been like 7 hours. and Athens to Santorini is like 4 hours +. the ticket from corfu to igomenitsa was about 7 euro and then the bus was around 44 euro and then the ferry from athens to santorini was about 45 euro and then a little more for the high speed ferry. and that was all in the middle of high season…

sorry if this is late!

How difficult/long is it to get from Athens to Karpathos? When I went to Karpathos before, I was originally in Turkey, so it didn’t take long at all. This time, though, I’d be entering via Athens. Thanks to whoever can help me.
