Holidays to Greece, Why Choose Greece?

Welcome to the cradle of Western Civilization. The powerful history of Ancient Greece will be conveyed by enlightening vistas onto Hellenic culture, philosophy and architecture. Let the Greece you've been imagining fill your senses, whether it's the Parthenon - solitary and pristine - lording over the hazy sprawl of Athens, the rural farmlands of the Peloponnese, the tang of home-made tzatziki, or the blinding light of the Aegean sun over Santorini. Experience endless miles of aquamarine coastline, sun-bleached ancient ruins, and the Greek's unquestioning hospitality and zest for life. Sip on a glass of ouzo or wine while you tempt your appetite with grilled souvlaki, fresh seafood and strong feta mixed with the purest olive oil on the planet.

Greece balances its past, present and future in a way managed by few other countries. The result is a country with endless cultural pursuits. It's easy to understand how so many myths of gods and giants originated in this vast and varied landscape, with wide open skies and a sea speckled with islands, where days melt from one to the next, while you relish the white-sand and palm-fringed beaches. Wander along cobbled, Byzantine footpaths, hike through arid forests, and enjoy a locally caught and produced meal while sitting by the sea on an island in the Aegean. Whether you are looking for natural beauty, delectable cuisine, historical sites or idyllic island beaches, Greece offers endless activities and is a magnet for anyone who enjoys the great outdoors.

Greece is a country of beautiful contradictions, a constant journey in time, from the present to the past and back again. Walk through the olive groves, through archaeological sites; move to clusters of islands, pictures beaches and mountains and explore the breathtaking scenery.

The islands are the main characteristic of Greece’s morphology and an integral part of the country’s culture and tradition. Greek sovereign land includes 6,000 islands and islets scattered in the Aegean and Ionian Seas, of which only 227 islands are inhabited.

The visitor has the opportunity to enjoy long stretches of golden sand beaches with dunes, as well as sheltered bays and coves, pebble beaches, coastal caves with steep rocks and dark sand typical of volcanic soil.

Whichever Greek attractions you are looking forward to discovering on your holiday, our travel experts are on hand to create your dream holiday.

Greece Honeymoons

The popularity of Greece honeymoons has its reasons in the variety of romantic destinations found all over the Aegean Sea and Ionian Sea. Blue skies and deep blue sea shining in the sun, white washed houses and exotic sandy beaches with crystalline waters create the most perfect scenery for this special vacation.
