Top 5 Greece Destinations

1. Crete
The largest of the Greek islands, Crete is a tapestry of diverse landscapes and ancient wonders. From the rugged beauty of the Samaria Gorge to the white-washed village of Loutro, Crete seamlessly blends history and nature. The azure waters of the Agia Roumeli beach contrast with the dramatic peaks of the White Mountains, offering a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure.

2. Athens
In Athens, the capital city, ancient history meets vibrant modernity. The Acropolis, with its iconic Parthenon, stands as a testament to Greece’s rich heritage, while lively neighborhoods like Kerameikos-Metaxourgeio pulse with contemporary energy. Explore the Acropolis Museum, wander through the historic streets, and savor traditional souvlaki at a local taverna for an authentic Athenian experience.

3. Evia
Greece’s second-largest island, Evia, is a hidden gem steeped in myth and natural splendor. Explore the quaint villages dotting the mountains, hike through lush forests, and discover the ancient ruins of Eretria. The island’s diverse landscapes, from pristine beaches to mountainous terrain, provide a serene backdrop for a tranquil escape away from the bustling mainland.

4. Paros
With charming villages and crystalline waters, Paros is a Cycladic paradise. The iconic blue-domed churches of Naoussa and the picturesque streets of Parikia exude traditional Greek charm. Relax on the golden beaches, savor fresh seafood at seaside tavernas, and immerse yourself in the island’s artistic spirit, reflected in its vibrant galleries and local crafts.

5. Mycenae
Mycenae, an archaeological treasure, invites you to step back in time to the Bronze Age. The mighty Lion Gate and the tombs of Atreus and Clytemnestra tell stories of ancient warriors and legendary kings. Explore the Cyclopean walls that once guarded this citadel and stand in awe of the historical richness that Mycenae preserves, offering a glimpse into the foundations of Greek civilization.

Like most Exodus guides, Thano was excellent. However he went beyond expectations, his local knowledge was extensive (he seemed to know everyone on the island). Always approachable. The packed lunches were varied (and filling). He ordered the starters at every meal which meant that we sampled lots of local delicacies that we would otherwise have missed. Lots of little things (sampling the ouzo, beekeeper visit and so on) added to the overall enjoyment. The guided tour of Athens on the final day was a bonus. On a personal note, he spoke to a doctor on my behalf as I was suffering from an injured shoulder.

FAQs on Greece Tours

When is the best time to visit Greece?

Greece has plenty to offer all year, but the best time to visit Greece is during the shoulder seasons of spring (April to June) and fall (September to October). The weather is pleasant, and popular sites are less crowded, making it the ideal weather for walking or cycling. But if you’re seeking sun-drenched beaches and ideal swimming conditions, the popular summer months of June to September offer warm daytime temperatures of around 90°F or even higher. The weather is largely dry at this time of year and some places, including the cities, can become very hot and crowded in July and August.

What are the best Greek Islands to visit?

The best Greek Islands to visit depend on your preferences. Santorini is renowned for its romantic sunsets and white-washed buildings, Paros offers a mix of vibrant nightlife and traditional charm, while Crete boasts diverse landscapes and historical sites. Naxos is praised for its beautiful beaches and rich history, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a well-rounded island experience.

How many days should I spend in Greece?

Our Greece trips typically span eight or nine days, providing a well-rounded experience of the country’s diverse offerings. Whether you’re hiking through Vikos-Aoos National Park, trekking coastal paths on Evia, or delving into Ancient Greek history, these durations allow you to immerse yourself in the landscapes and culture. The carefully curated itineraries ensure you make the most of your time, creating lasting memories of Greece’s beauty and history.

Is Greece safe?

Greece is generally safe. The locals are friendly, and the region is known for its welcoming atmosphere. Exercise standard safety precautions, such as safeguarding your belongings and being aware of your surroundings, and you’ll likely have a safe and enjoyable trip. Our expert guides are also there to assist, and you can travel with peace of mind knowing that you are in a group with fellow travelers.

Where should I travel to in Greece?

Greece offers a diverse range of destinations to explore. Santorini is famed for its romantic sunsets and cliffside villages, Athens boasts ancient ruins like the Acropolis, Crete enchants with its historical sites and varied landscapes, and the islands of Paros and Naxos provide a perfect blend of vibrant culture and stunning beaches. The choice depends on your interests, whether it’s rich history, picturesque landscapes, or vibrant island life.

What should I wear in Greece?

Greece has a Mediterranean climate, so light and breathable clothing is recommended, especially during the hot summer months. Pack comfortable walking shoes for exploring archaeological sites and cobbled streets. Swimwear is essential for beach visits, and a light jacket or shawl may come in handy during cooler evenings. Don’t forget essentials like sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses to stay protected under the Greek sun.
