Forbes: Greek islands top choice of the rich and famous for 2016

Greek islands are the top choice of the rich and famous for 2016, according to Forbes magazine which notes the following:

Luxury website VeryFirstTo.com reached out to 466 of their celebrity and millionaire members across 57 countries—including some of the world’s most discerning travelers who are accustomed to splurging on the finest service and $8,000-meals (per head). Here are some of their top picks in 2016, according to Marcel Knobil, Founder of VeryFirstTo:

#1:  GREEK ISLANDS

Beyond the killer combination of natural beauty, history and hip luxury, what distinguishes the Greek Islands is the unique personality of each island. For instance, Mykonos combines a party atmosphere with beautifully pedestrianized shopping streets; while Crete (the Elouanda Villas in particular) delivers luxury with a sense of privacy.

WHAT YOU SHOULD TRY: Set sail around the magical islands starting from Tourlos port and stop at Kalo Livadi, Psarou and Paradise beaches. Check out the islands of Delos for the ancient Greek and Roman remains, Rhenia for crystal-clear waters, and Chora for its 16th-century windmills.

The complete list the 6 hottest summer travel destinations in 2016 (according to World’s Pickiest Travelers) includes:
