Things To Do In Greece

In Athens, the legendary Acropolis commands attention, perched majestically atop a hill. Spend a day exploring its museum and the Parthenon, your gateway to Greek history. Catch a cable car ride up Lykavittos Hill at sunset for panoramic city views. Lose yourself in the labyrinth of cobblestone streets in the Plaka neighborhood, where cafes and markets coexist with ancient ruins. Nearby, Delphi reveals the splendor of the ancient Greek civilization, with the Temple of Apollo and the Delphi Archaeological Museum as its crown jewels. Continue your odyssey among the otherworldly rock formations of Meteora and the hallowed grounds of the ancient Olympic stadium in Olympia.

The most challenging decision you’ll make is selecting which of the hundreds of islands to visit. Whether you embark on an island-hopping adventure or choose one idyllic spot, our knowledgeable Inescape Travel experts will craft the perfect itinerary. In the Cyclades islands, Santorini beckons with its legendary sunsets, black lava beaches, and the enigmatic ruins of Akrotiri. Mykonos captivates with cubist architecture and the vivacious buzz of trendy restaurants and nightlife. Folegandros charms with vibrant blue doors and cascading pink bougainvillea in the cliff-top village of Hora. Paros offers pristine beaches and a magnificent old church with a Byzantine museum.

  • Step back in time at the Athens Acropolis

    Sitting in the heart of a wooded park, the Acropolis of Athens is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most famous collections of buildings in the world. They include the Propylaea gateway, the Temple of Athena Nike and the greatest of the lot: the Parthenon. Discover it on our Greece holiday packages.

  • Island hop the most famous Cycladic islands: Mykonos, Santorini and Ios

    Greek island hopping is classic part of any trip here and as the beating heart of the Cycladic islands, Mykonos, Santorini and Ios are all essential ports of call. Mykonos is the 24/7 party island, while the tumbledown white and blue villages of Santorini and spindly windmills of Ios are beautiful sights no traveller will ever forget.

  • Party time in Mykonos

    Mix beach life with nightlife in Mykonos, one of the most famous party places in Greece. Soak up the sun and cool off in the cobalt waters of Paradise Beach before the evening starts at the Beach Bar and ends in style in the Paradise Club Mykonos. And remember: if you tire of the late nights, there are a couple of thousand other islands just a boat ride away.

  • Visit Olympia, the birthplace of the modern Olympic Games

    Olympia’s Temple of Hera was the 8th century birthplace of the original Olympic Games. Visit today and you can either walk in the footsteps of the early Olympians among the temples and arenas, or go harder by hammering down challenging bike trails, kayaking nearby rivers or heading to the coast for some hardcore kiteboarding

  • Eat Gyros, Greek street food

    Part kebab, part sandwich, all delicious! Gyros is fresh grilled rotisserie chicken, pork or lamb, sliced up and served inside a fluffy pita bread and served with tangy tzatziki dip, tomato, onions and chips. It’s a must try for street food in Greece. Add it to your Greece trip package bucket list.
