Form the world's oldest city of Athens to the legendary island of Crete and Santorini's breath-taking sunsets to the vibrant towns of Oia and Fira, Greece bursts with history, culture, beauty and glory, every nook and corner.
Be it a history buff or a true adventurer, Greece sure has something for each kind of traveller. But with so many faces of Greece, it's natural to get easily overwhelmed.
There are tons of Greece vacation packages out there but you would hardly find that recipe for a successful holiday. So for the sake of Greece holidaymakers, particularly the first-timers, we researched a lot and here we are with tested ingredients to cook up a happy holiday experience in Greece.
A rush of mobility
Discover diverse archaeological and natural sites of Greece in a thrilling way. From the thrills of sea kayaking and rafting to climbing adventures, dynamic cycling trips to hiking breath-taking mountain trails, Greece has so much to offer to stimulate your senses and bring out your active side.
If not all, include at least two or three adventure activities to your Greece vacation packages to make sure you absolutely feel the vibrancy and freedom of Greece's natural diversity.
Take a moment to Sigh
One of things that have potential to impair a well-planned vacation is overstuffing. Binge travelling, overindulging in adventure while leaving no room for relaxation can leave you overwhelmed and too exhausted to stop midway your journey.
Head to northwest Greece to find an ideal combination of peace, health and relaxation. Walk through a network of unruffled alpine villages, enjoy scenic views of Zagori and rekindle your energy and strength with yoga treatments and holistic therapies and the list goes on.
Savour the local treasures
The mild climate year-round and an abundance of seafood quite explains the delicious Mediterranean cuisine of Greece.
While the Greek cuisine largely includes traditional Mediterranean delicacies, many of the dishes are adaptations from the cuisines of Italy, Turkey, Israel and the Lavant and Barkans.
Fresh fish, octopus, olives, feta and cheese, honey and baklava to name a few are some of the foods and ingredients you would likely see in every almost every Greek menu. In addition, Greece is also home to some of the best wines like Agiorgitiko, Athiri, Assyrtiko and Malgousia that are exported to varied parts of Europe.
Breathe in the Nature
Immerse yourself in the unspoiled beauty of landscapes, the valley of olive groves and fields to get acquainted with the nature and culture of Greece on an eco-tour.
Greece offers varied opportunities for nature enthusiasts to indulge in traditional agricultural practices like farming, harvesting, wine production and tasting, seasonal cooking and more. Not only can you familiarise yourself with customary green practices and long-preserved cultures but you also get to explore beautiful eco-farms, villages and ancient locations.
Conclusion
This was it. Your all-encompassing list of elements that make for a happy vacation.
Including all these requisite ingredients in all its Greece vacation packages, Greecefully always inspires holidaymakers to go beyond the usual. And it's only when you travel beyond your imagination, your limits that you make a one of a kind experience.
