Top places to visit in Greece

Athens

Hot, edgy, ancient but ever-evolving, there’s an irrepressible energy about Europe’s oldest capital. Crowned by the hilltop Acropolis, storied ruins are never far from view. But it’s the lively markets, cool cafes and buzzing rooftop bars that make this city such an appealing place to visit on a solo travel group tour of Greece.

Santorini

The undisputed star of the Cyclades, Santorini’s dramatic landscape was formed by one of the largest volcanic eruptions in history. The half-sunken crater that was left behind is a must-see sight for its steep polychromatic cliffs, vivid sunsets and views of the island’s sugar-cube buildings.

Mykonos

Known for its cosmopolitan atmosphere and vibrant party scene, there’s a traditional side to Mykonos too: stone-paved alleys, whitewashed houses and cute chapels dot the rural landscape. But walk down the main street of Chora and you’ll find designer boutiques, boho chic cafes and some of the finest restaurants in Greece.

Crete

Greece’s largest island feels like a country in its own right. The rugged interior is dotted with rural farms and villages, while the lowlands are lined with stunning beaches, vineyards and pastel-colored towns. From the Minoan Palace of Knossos to the stunning Imbros Gorge, it’s a place of intriguing history, ancient myths and genuine hospitality.
