Experiences & Adventure

Greek Cuisine

Food is a huge part of Greek culture. The cuisine offers an incredibly rich and diverse array of foods and beverages that are the culmination of thousands of years of living, cooking, and eating. It’s all about the fresh ingredients, the lengthy procedure involved in preparing the food, and the culture of sharing dishes with others.

UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Greece

Europe contains some of the most fascinating, historic UNESCO World Heritage sites in the world - There are over 400 sites in Europe alone, and at least one can be found in every country. These highly significant cultural and natural sites include landmarks, monuments, national parks, towns, castles, palaces, and architectural wonders spread throughout Europe.

Greek Wine Regions

Out of the 700 wineries in Greece, only a few can produce enough to export, so many excellent wines come from small-producers and go undiscovered outside of Greece. The country is a bit of a mystery to many wine drinkers, who may be limited by their knowledge of the region, grape varieties, or simply the pronunciation. However, one visit to Greece, sipping dry white wine of Santorini Island, sampling rosé on a Peloponnese road trip, indulging in sparkling wines in the mountainous north, or discovering the reds of Crete: there is something for every taste.

Iconic Greek Road Trips

Many people associate Greece travel with island-hopping by ferry, but taking an iconic Greek road trip is a great way to get off the beaten track and experience this enchanting country. Not only will it give you more flexibility with your itinerary, it will allow you to visit small villages, remote archeological sites, and vineyards and tavernas - there's so much more to Greece than its beaches. So jump in the car and hit the road on the mainland in Greece for a fantastic adventure!

City and Beach Holidays in Greece

Greece is a country where historic ruins, volcanic cliffs, and friendly locals meet the blue Mediterranean Sea. It`s the whole package spread out amongst thousands of gorgeous islands.

WHY SANTORINI?

Santorini is an island that has it all - mesmerizing sunsets to share with family or friends, volcanoes rising out of the blue Aegean Sea for couples, cave house accommodations, amazing Greek variety of food, some quaint villages, gorgeous beaches and of course those stereotypical (but equally as beautiful) blue-domed churches amidst whitewashed stone buildings. No island better epitomized the Greek vacation experience than Santorini. Believe it or not, these west facing settlements like Oia, Fira and Imerovigli enjoy front-row views of one of the world’s most beautiful sunsets and in summer their tavernas fill up long before the sun slips behind Nea Kameni and Therasia in the caldera.
