Greece is where modern civilization got its start. It isn’t hard to imagine Aristotle, Plato and the rest filling papyrus after papyrus with celebratory words about the homeland, the food, the views and the wine. The country remains an alluring temptation for travellers young and old. Your toes should be tentatively dipped first into the waters of history, culture and the coast. Deciding where to begin with the sheer beauty of the country’s diverse landscapes, the historic cities of the mainland and the sprawling hills and forests of its 6,000 islands is no easy task. Whether you’re after a seriously rural retreat, a low-key city break, or a thriving party hub right in the middle of the Mediterranean, ever-exhilarating Greece has your back.
