The Parthenon was completed in 432 BC and still stands on the Acropolis above Athens. Few cities place such a famous monument so close to the centre. Visitors can walk from the Plaka district to the summit in under half an hour.
Greece has more than 6,000 islands, of which around 227 are inhabited. Each has its own character, from the volcanic cliffs of Santorini to the green hills of Corfu. Ferries from Piraeus make it simple to combine several in one trip.
The Aegean and Ionian Seas wash a shoreline of beaches, coves and whitewashed harbour towns. Many beaches shelve gently, which suits families with younger children. Sea temperatures are warm enough for swimming from late spring into autumn, and many bays stay calm well into the evening.
Grilled souvlaki, baked moussaka and horiatiki salad are served across the country in tavernas and street stalls. Meals are typically long and unhurried, with plenty of time for conversation. Local olive oil and feta are staples on almost every menu, and many restaurants source produce from nearby farms.
Athens is served from many UK airports, and flights take around three and a half to four hours. Domestic flights and ferries then carry travellers on to the islands. This makes Greece a realistic choice for a short break as well as a longer stay.
Greece caters to couples, families, solo travellers and history enthusiasts alike. Resorts range from lively party towns to quiet villages with few visitors, and there is a comfortable choice of stays for every budget. The mix of options makes it easy to find a holiday that fits, whatever your plans.


Resort choice drives the budget more than almost anything else, so these are the places we rate highest for value from Birmingham.
Island holidays can be excellent value when you match the island to your budget and travel dates, so these are our top picks for island trips.
Flying in a shoulder month such as May, June, September or October usually gives the strongest value. Choosing a base with a short transfer, such as Rhodes or Corfu, also keeps total costs down. Compare the full package price rather than just the flight.
