Greece is one of the few destinations that delivers both world-changing history and postcard-perfect beaches in the same trip. Athens anchors the culture, and a short ferry ride gets you to the islands everyone pictures when they imagine the Mediterranean.
Suggested Route (8–10 Days)
- Days 1–3 — Athens: The Acropolis, the Acropolis Museum, and a wander through the Plaka neighbourhood.
- Days 4–6 — Santorini: Caldera sunset views, whitewashed villages, and volcanic beaches.
- Days 7–10 — Mykonos or Naxos: Pick the buzzing nightlife island or the quieter, more authentic one.
Visa & Entry Notes
Greece is in the Schengen Area — one visa covers the mainland and all the islands, and pairs easily with a wider Balkans or Mediterranean itinerary.
Best Time to Visit
Late April–June and September–October avoid both the intense summer heat and the August crowds, while still giving you warm enough water for swimming.
