Greece
The combination of some of the most beautiful islands in the Mediterranean and thousands of years of culture and history makes Greece hard to beat as a destination..
Highlights
- Learn about Greece’s rich history by taking a trip up to the Acropolis to view the Parthenon temple.
- Enjoy the iconic views from the volcanic island of Santorini particularly at sunrise or sunset.
- Hike along Crete’s famous Samaria Gorge in the south of Greece’s largest island.
- Enjoy a few drinks and soak up the party atmosphere at the bars and clubs on the island of Mykonos.
When to visit?
Greece’s temperatures soar to well over 30C in the summer months of July and August. This is also the most crowded time of year. Temperatures are more moderate (mid 20Cs) in May-June and September-October, as well as being quieter. Greece’s climate means it is not known as a winter-sun destination but Athens is a good option for a city break year-round.
