Greece has a long heritage as being one of the oldest civilisations in Europe and as such has wonderful architecture and archaeological sites that reflect this colourful history. The capital city of Athens remains the central historical focal point in the country and welcomes thousands of visitors each year who flock to its great sites that include the magnificent Parthenon. Since the Olympic Games in 2004 the city of Athens has been transformed with an improved infrastructure which has significantly improved public transport in the city. Away from the historical sites, the narrow streets of the city are teeming with trendy bars and traditional cafes that serve traditional Mediterranean cuisine. Away from the mainland, Greece has over one thousand islands which are the main destination for most holidaymakers. The main islands of Kos, Rhodes, Crete and Corfu all have wonderful sandy beaches and are extremely welcoming to British holidaymakers. With good connections between these islands you should not miss to opportunity to do some island hopping whether by boat or by plane – you’re guaranteed to see some of the most spectacular views of this area of the world. |
