Immerse yourself in Greece’s rich history in Athens’ Acropolis and Crete’s Palace of Knossos on cultural and historic site tours. Island-hop between Santorini, Mykonos, and Rhodes, each offering its own charm. Dive into crystal-clear waters—snorkel in Corfu, swim in Zakynthos' Blue Caves, or windsurf in Naxos. Set sail on an Aegean cruise, soaking in Santorini’s breathtaking caldera views. Greece also offers plenty of relaxation and beach holidays.

The best time to visit Greece is during the shoulder seasons of April–May and September–October, when the weather is pleasant, and the crowds are thinner. Summer (June–August) offers vibrant island life but can be hot and busy, while winter (November–March) is quieter with cooler temperatures. Explore our guide for a seasonal breakdown.

For a well-rounded experience, we recommend spending at least one week in Greece. This allows you to visit historic mainland cities like Athens and Delphi before heading to islands like Santorini or Mykonos. If you’re short on time, a 5-day itinerary can focus on Athens and one island. For a deeper dive, spending two weeks in Greece lets you explore destinations like Thessaloniki, Nafplio, and Corfu. Check our guide on how many days to spend in Greece to find the perfect itinerary for yourself.

Greece has approximately 6,000 islands and islets, with only around 200 inhabited. Among the must-visit islands, Santorini stands out for its breathtaking sunsets and volcanic beaches, while Mykonos is famed for its lively nightlife and charming old town. Crete, the largest island, offers diverse landscapes and rich history, whereas Rhodes boasts medieval architecture and stunning beaches. Corfu impresses with Venetian influences and lush greenery, while Naxos and Paros blend beautiful beaches with traditional charm. Milos showcases unique rock formations, Zakynthos is home to the famous Shipwreck Beach, and Hydra offers a peaceful, car-free escape. Each island has its own unique charm, catering to history lovers, beachgoers, and adventurers alike.

Greece is the ideal summer destination, so you are more than likely to spend most of your time outdoors. So, do not forget your summer essentials like sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, and comfortable hiking boots. Also, many cruise ship casinos and restaurants require formal dress at night. Thus, you may want to bring a jacket or dinner dress along.
