Relaxing  Greece tour holidays

Think Greece and you might think of sun, sand and sea. But we like to dig a little deeper on our Greece tours – after all, they’ve got plenty to offer.

There’s the history, of course. Everyone from the Minoans to the Knights of St John left their mark here, while tales of mythical monsters and ancient gods add a layer of intrigue. The country is rich in tradition, too. Browse the local shops and you might find delicate silver filigree or beautifully embroidered textiles, made using techniques passed down through the generations.

Greece touring holidays give you time to enjoy the good life, too. Rising early for a morning dip in the Mediterranean before a day’s sightseeing. Sipping an icy frappé at a harbourside café. Enjoying long lunches in the sunshine and even longer dinners beneath starry skies, grazing on mezze and swapping stories with new friends.

So, where to visit first? How about Corfu, a glorious, green speck in the Ionian Sea? Or there’s Crete, where we’ll explore windmill-dotted plains and Venetian old quarters. For an island-hopping adventure, the Dodecanese isles are ideal – start in historic Rhodes, before moving on to admire Symi’s pastel-coloured harbour town and Leros’ whitewashed towns and pretty, pebbled bays. Wherever you choose to explore, Greece is a destination that’s sure to delight.
