Discover Greece
Greece is a country of islands and antiquity: the Acropolis above Athens, thousands of islands scattered across the Aegean and Ionian seas, and a mainland of mountains, gorges and oracle sites. The season is long and hot — built for island-hopping, open-air festivals and late tavernas.
Each region has its own character: cosmopolitan Athens and its Riviera, food-and-festival Thessaloniki in the north, the volcanic drama of Santorini, and Crete — a near-continent of beaches, mountains and Minoan history. Ferries tie it all together.
Top places in Greece
- Acropolis & Athens — The Parthenon, the ancient Agora and a buzzing café-and-rooftop city below.
- Santorini — Caldera villages, Oia sunsets and volcanic-sand beaches in the Cyclades.
- Crete (Heraklion) — Greece’s biggest island — Knossos, long beaches and mountain gorges.
- Thessaloniki — Waterfront, Byzantine churches and the country’s best food-and-festival scene.
- Meteora — Clifftop monasteries perched on towering rock pillars — an unforgettable mainland sight.
