Exploration

Admire dramatic landscapes, immerse yourself in culture and savour exquisite local cuisine as part of our Local Discovery programme. It’s exploration at its finest, and it’s all included.

Local Drive Adventure

Head into the verdant mountains in a complimentary Tesla Model 3 for a day and discover charming Andalusian villages, explore the neoclassic architecture of Unesco-listed Corfu old Town or plunge into history among the archaeological treasures of Kos. Enjoy a sustainable Local Drive Adventure at your own pace, whether it’s along the palm-fringed promenades of the Costa del Sol or through the rolling hills of verdant Halkidiki. The green experience is elevated to new heights for our Deluxe Collection guests, who’ll have the chance to enjoy the upgraded Tesla Model Y.

Culture Pass

Plunge into the unique culture and heritage of your destination with the Ikos Culture Pass, offering free entry to local museums, monuments and historical sites. Get up close and personal with Picasso’s iconic paintings in Malaga, explore post-Byzantine Corfiot Art at the Antivouniotissa Museum or sample full-bodied wines in sun-kissed Halkidiki. From hilltop temples shrouded in secrecy to immersive museums and Venetian fortresses, experience it all.

Dine as the locals do at exquisite restaurants offering traditional cuisine and local wines. From tavernas in Corfu and Kos to beachfront spots in Marbella and quaint tapas bars nestled in Estepona’s Old Town, savour the warm hospitality of your destination as you enjoy a complimentary Dine Out adventure at a local restaurant. It’s a gastronomic experience that provides the perfect insight into your destination.

The new Golden Mile Experience

An over 8km stretch of captivating coastline that extends between the charming village of Estepona and vibrant Marbella, the New Golden Mile is a unique Ikos Andalusia offering. Follow Ikos’ curated routes by bike or on foot, and savour the spectacular views of the glittering Mediterranean.
