As the land of ancient history, picture-perfect islands and mouth-watering cuisine, Greece has long been a top destination in Europe. Situated between the Balkans and Turkey, the beautiful coastline and islands in the Aegean, Ionian and Mediterranean Seas provide idyllic Greece vacation spots!
Expat Explore’s trips to Greece feature a visit to the capital Athens to marvel at its iconic, historic landmarks, such as the Acropolis and Parthenon which sit on a high rocky outcrop overlooking the sprawling city below. Athens’ many ancient sites are now linked by a pedestrianised zone, making it one of the easiest major European cities to get around.
The Greek mainland is home to several impressive historic sites. Olympia was the site of the original Olympic Games while Delphi retains its well-preserved ancient theatre. When you’ve had your fill of ancient history, the vibrant nightlife of Mykonos and the whitewashed houses of Santorini offer the perfect contrast to the bustling metropolis of the mainland.
Our Greek tours include 7 day Greek mainland and Greek island vacation packages as well as our 12-day Best of Greece tour, for the best of both worlds, and the epic 22-day Best of the Balkans & Greek Islands tour!
