Getting to Samos

Richmond Holidays is a specialist provider of excellent Christian Holidays. All our efforts are directed towards what happens on resort, the quality and training of our staff, the Christian content of the holiday and your whole experience of being away together with other Christians.

It is clear that there has been a big shift in the flexibility people want when planning their holidays, as well as a huge deregulation in the flight industry. This means that:

All flights for Richmond Holidays are now purchased directly by you from specialist flight suppliers. This has a number of advantages for you.

  • Much wider range of flights available
  • Research and choose the best flights to suit your needs
  • Take advantage of special last minute offers - or early discount pricing.
  • Benefit from ATOL Protection for the flight seats when booking with an ATOL covered flight provider.
We have listed the principal carriers below and we will of course organise and provide transfers to the hotel. In some cases we will recommend one or two particular flights partners for our holidays, but you are under no obligation to choose these flights. The choice is yours!
