Reasons to visit Greece
Discover ancient treasures
Home to stunning monuments and several UNESCO heritage sites, a flight to Greece is like a journey back in time. Wander in the footsteps of figures from history at the Acropolis in Athens. Visit the Byzantine churches of Thessaloniki, the Temple of Poseidon in Sounion or the archaeological site of Delphi.
Visit stunning natural wonders
Towering mountain ranges, rich forests, lush valleys, cascading waterfalls and pristine lakes – the natural wonders of Greece will astound you. Explore the series of waterfalls and pools of Polilmnio Waterfalls in Messenia or watch the sun set on a cruise across the Aegean Sea.
Delicious cuisine
Greek food is popular around the world but nothing compares to sampling it at its source. Options can vary between cities, but the essentials remain the same: chargrilled souvlaki, fresh seafood, traditional oven-baked moussaka and seasonal vegetables drizzled with a healthy dose of Greek olive oil. Be sure to try taramasalata, a fish roe dip.
