Reasons to visit Greece

Are you looking for some reasons to visit Greece? Weve gathered plenty for you.

Athens is the great springboard to Greek adventures, overlooked by the

Acropolis, the cradle of Western democracy and a city that has survived far worse
than a little financial inconvenience. No visit to Greece would be complete without a
couple of days in this gritty yet historic city. There are plenty of bespoke guided
tours which take in the Acropolis, smart new Acropolis Museum, Agora and National
Archaeological Museum. And no other city in the world has free museums in its
metro stations; head for Syntagma to see a cross-section of ancient civilizations
behind glass in the stations ticket hall. The city can be explored by Trikke, Segway,
foot and bike; or see it from above by helicopter or from offshore by luxury yacht.
Visitors can sample olives and stuffed dolmas in the food markets, dine in tavernas
and bar hop in buzzing Plaka.

If you are into glorious masterpieces of the Ancient Times, then Greece is the
place to be in. Those of you have never been to Greece, you must rectify this
heresy. Whether you are a history buff or not, Greece is home to marvellous
monuments and UNESCO heritage sites. Take the time to see the beautiful Acropolis
in Athens and its stunning museum, visit the archaeological site of Delphi or the
open-air island museum of Delos, the stunning Byzantine monuments of
Thessaloniki, the myth-laden Palace of Knossos or the breathtaking medieval Old
Town of Rhodes.
Greek Island Hopping and Food is another good reason If you plan your summer
vacation in Greece, an excellent choice for you is Island Hopping in Cyclades. The
islands are located in a very close distance to each other, and you can explore
everyday a different Greek island. Can you imagine something more interesting
during your journey? With the Greek Island Pass, you will pay only one ticket, and
you can make up to 8 routes on 7 islands at an unbeatable price with great
flexibility. Thus, you will explore the legendary Aegean Sea and have unforgettable
experiences. Especially if you are a fan of the Greek cuisine and you want to live an
abundant culinary experience, you should take into consideration enjoying the
gastronomic Island Hopping in Greece. Food island hopping means that you will visit
these islands, where you can taste delicious cuisine and creative dishes that will
make your food vacation in Greece just amazing. In Cyclades, these are the top
islands you should not miss for a super culinary island hopping.

The nightlife. Greeks love to celebrate life, and that is evident in their nightlife
culture. If youre in Athens, you should definitely go to the bouzoukia (pronounced
boo-zoo-kia), which are basically large concert halls where famous artists gather to
perform. Dress your best and expect to be dancing on tables until the wee hours of
the morning. If youre on the islands, youll never be far from a beach bar or
nightclub where you can dance to some European jams, dance all night, and top it
off with a sunrise dip in the Mediterranean.

Greece is a number one destination for vacation-goers wishing to relax, visit

ancient ruins and beautiful beaches the country has to offer and recently, it has
been ranked number two in the world on the 2017 Blue Flag quality award list. The
country that took first place was Spain. The Blue Flag is given to countries as an
eco-label, and this year 486 beaches and 12 marinas in Greece were honored with
the award, with the Halkidiki peninsula winning the most flags with 71 of its beaches
selected.

Hovever, the most compelling reasons of course, is the fact that you can find low
prices. Greece was always a perfect place to visit on a reasonable budget. Great
deals, low-budget packages, small, unexplored and cheap islands, one of the
cheapest capitals in Europe and in general budget destinations, where you can travel
with less than 20. The good news are that Greece continues to be a budget
destination due to the economic crisis. The country has now stability, is absolutely
safe, but the travel agents and the hotels offer amazing deals even in popular
islands, like Mykonos, Santorini, Rhodes, Corfu and Crete.
