Greece offers different experiences, landscapes and activities. It is the ancient and modern spirit, the nightlife of Mykonos and the ancient sights of Delos, the mystic of Delphi, the hillsides of Crete and the summer sun. It is the Parthenon - the most renown symbol of Athens and Greece.

As recently as 1983, when it acceded to the EU, Greece was essentially a conservative, agrarian society famous for its olive oil, coups, beaches and islands. Greece is really different now. It also offers different types of vacation - careless sunbathing or historical tourism. While most first time travelers go to the Greek islands, many long-time visitors to Greece find that the mainland maintains the traditional qualities they like the most. It is up to you to choose where you want to stay in Greece. Both the tourist-oriented sunny islands in the Aegean sea and the old cities on the mainland will give you a one of a kind experience during your vacation in Greece.

Greece is paradise for the tourists – but with the modern facilities and luxurious hotels come crowds, traffic, noise. Little by little the peaceful side of the country is vanishing. But Greece continues to fascinate the foreign visitors and it is easy to explain it. The Greek people still have the welcome mat out, no matter the financial difficulties. It is them what, after all, makes Greece. Travel to Greece and find it by yourself.

The main entrance to Greece is the Venizelos International Airport in Athens. There are a number of companies that offer cheap airflight tickets to Greece.
