Discover Greece |
AthensEnjoy a day or two of sightseeing in Greece’s capital city of Athens, visiting the ancient sites of the Acropolis and the Temple of Zeus. Go on an urban hike or take the cable car to the top of Mt. Lycabetus for amazing panoramic views of the city and follow with a visit to the historical Plaka to wind your way through the neighborhood’s narrow streets, stopping to have a traditional souvlaki or Greek salad at a local restaurant.

SantoriniA visit to Greece would not be complete without a trip to one of its volcanic islands in the Aegean Sea, many of which can be reached by air within the hour. The remarkably beautiful, white washed towns of Fira and Oia, sitting atop the caldera clifftops of Santorini, are a photographer’s paradise. Sit by your panoramic pool or on one of the island’s pebble beaches, no matter where you are the views are outstanding. Indulge in the food and wine and become quick friends with the earnest residents.

MykonosMykonos, an island to the northeast of Santorini, is a livelier island with great nightlife and some of the best beaches in the Aegean, aptly named Paradise and Super Paradise. Enjoy the freshest seafood at a local taverna and spend your days admiring the unique architecture.
CreteFor a complete Greek experience, end your trip on Crete, Greece’s largest island and home to the archaeological site of Knossos Palace and endless olive tree orchards. The landscape of the island is extraordinary. There is a beautiful contrast between the beaches of the coast and the mountains of the interior.
