Things to see and do in Greece

You can’t miss the island of Santorini with the traditional white houses and blue roofs. Santorini is unlike most Greek islands. The island is of volcanic origin, which is reflected in the landscape. Over the years, there have been many

earthquakes and eruptions on the island. Many houses are built uphill and located on high cliffs. This gives a beautiful view of the sea from the houses, and you can enjoy beautiful sunsets. Many archaeological excavations and historical remains can be found on the island. Rent a scooter or go discovering the island on foot.

Island hopping

For fun and adventure.

There are many islands around the mainland of Greece. There are more than 6,000 islands, of which about 220 are inhabited. Each island has its charm and appearance and has everything to do with the history of Greece. While one

island may be trendy, the other may still be relatively undiscovered. You can discover a lot by going island hopping on your holiday. This way, you can discover the different islands and what makes them unique. Although they are all Greek islands, every piece of land is different, and it’s always an adventure to see what they have to offer.

Samaria Gorge

Rugged nature hiking.

If you are in Crete, you should not miss a tour of the Samaria Gorge, which was created more than 14 million years ago. Over the years, the gap has deepened. In 1962 the Samaria Gorge officially became a national park

which has everything to do with the animals and plants there. The gorge is located in the village of Samaria, but that has not been inhabited for years. The canyon is open from April to September. In winter it is closed because then a river flows through it. The whole walk is 16 kilometres long which can be pretty challenging, so prepare for the hike.

Greek cuisine

Something to taste and enjoy.

Greek cuisine is similar to Italian cuisine in terms of ingredients. Meat, fish and vegetables are flavoured with simple ingredients such as wine, olive oil, lemon and oregano—delicious Mediterranean flavours, super fresh

and made with a lot of love. The Greeks are hospitable and will happily welcome you to their dining tables. Order a kilo of wine (1-litre carafe), try different dishes and finish with a glass of Ouzo. You can eat out every day because food is incredibly delicious and cheap in Greece.

Avoid the crowds

Go in search of traditional Greece.

If you visit islands such as Crete, Zakynthos and Rhodes, you will encounter many tourists and busy hotspots. If you want to holiday without the crowds, rent a car, scooter or quad, and easily step into the traditional restaurants

with crooked chairs, meet locals and enjoy their cuisines. After dinner, leave with a bottle of house wine and a bunch of grapes. At many traditional huts and restaurants, you can see the locals enjoying the sound, sights, and carefree life of their beautiful islands all day long. Join them and experience real Greece.

Acropolis | Parthenon

Ancient temple on a hill.

The Acropolis is a mountain in the middle of Athens. Translated from Greek, it means the “highest point of the city.” The hill is not very high (156 meters), but it can easily be seen from afar. It is a sacred mountain because of

because of the goddess Athena, the patron goddess of the city of Athens. Several temples are dedicated to different gods, and one of the most important and well-known is the Parthenon, a temple mainly devoted to Athena. The temple was built in the fifth century BC. Construction was completed in about 15 years, and to this day, it remains a popular attraction in Greece. Pay a visit and marvel at its history and wonder.

Winter Sports

Ski, snow, and adventure.

Despite the Mediterranean climate and mild winters, it snows considerably on the mountains in Greece’s mainlands. There are 25 ski areas, and all of them are pretty popular winter sports destinations. Visit these ski

areas and enjoy Greek cosiness, slight slopes, and the best vacation atmosphere. Replace the mulled wine for a glass of Ouzo and go crazy on catchy Greek tunes. It is also nice to combine a winter sport with a bit of culture in the surrounding villages. Don’t miss out.

Santorini

The island of love.

You can’t miss the island of Santorini with the traditional white houses and blue roofs. Santorini is unlike most Greek islands. The island is of volcanic origin, which is reflected in the landscape. Over the years, there have been many
