Are you dreaming of discovering Greece, but don’t know the ideal season or length of time to explore the country? Then take a look at our travel guide, which will help you choose the right tour for you!
There’s so much to discover in Greece, you need to choose your travel itinerary carefully. If you’re planning a one-week trip, you can visit several islands in the Cyclades, thanks to the many ferries that link islands such as Mykonos, Naxos, Paros and Santorini. 7 days is also the ideal length of time for a self-drive tour of Crete, from Heraklion to Agios Nikolaos, so don’t miss out on the must-sees of Greece’s largest island.
If you’re lucky enough to spend 2 weeks in Greece, you can discover several of the Cycladic islands or take a self-guided tour of mainland Greece from Athens to the Peloponnese via Delphi, giving you a good overview of Greek culture.
Greece can be visited in any season, but the climate varies from region to region. The country has a Mediterranean climate, with mild, rainy winters and hot, dry summers. Find out more about the climate of each region in our climate article.
