Wife and daughter / Greece
My daughter will graduate HS next May and a trip for graduation is in the plans. My wife and daughter have always been intrigued by Santorini, Greece. They have never traveled internationally and I have my reservations about sending them alone on this trip. There may be another mother/daughter with them but not for sure. I don't think they want to spend anytime in Athens so it would probably be ATL-Istanbul-Athens and then flight or ferry to Santorini. I'm really not comfortable about them being by themselves. Thoughts/advice?

They'll be just fine. Purses stay within their clothes (Under their jacket, blouse, etc.) Super vigilant at night, no dark allies, stay on populated streets. Best if they hire a trusted guide to escort them around....see post #2

A couple of days on Santorini is plenty. We did that and a couple days in Athens for the architecture, a couple of days in Mykonos. Then a few days in Germany to decompress. Weirdest thing about Greece is not flushing the head, the sewer systems cannot hand it.
