Greece

Time to wonder

When it comes to classical civilisation, Greece is unmatched. Modern visitors can explore the crystal clear seas and green-and-gold islands immortalised by the epic poets, and wonder at the architectural and cultural legacies of the likes of the Minoans and Byzantines. Step back in time in storied Greece, where history lives on.

Time to dive in

Graced with far more than their fair share of natural beauty, the dazzling Greek islands are blue-and-gold playgrounds with crystalline waters and platinum-sand beaches. This is your cue to experience unforgettable swimming and snorkelling, to enjoy technicolour diving in Crete, Zakynthos and Corfu, to take to the seas like Odysseus, and to make a splash with watersports, fishing and more. There’s an island for every taste…

Time to savour / Time to taste

Thanks to its sun-kissed climate, fertile soils, bucolic landscapes and pristine waters, Greece is heaven for foodies. Highlights to look forward to include succulent seafood and just-caught fish, ambrosial olive oil, island cheeses, rainbow-coloured salads and local wine, worthy of the gods. Take a bite out of Greece – and leave room in your suitcase for edible souvenirs.
