Destinations

You’re about to discover some of the most eco-friendly destinations in Greece, and we can’t wait to showcase them!

Somewhere between Greek mythology and philosophy, the area of Attica (Attiki in Greek), which holds today's cities of Athens and Piraeus but also numerous splendid attractions and serene hamlets, was dubbed as the best place on earth to live in. The city is also a quick springboard for many close-by destinations and islands, such as Aegina, Andros, Angistri, Hydra, Kea and Poros. On the mainland itself, attractions such as Cape Sounion, Vravrona, Elefsina, Marathon Lake, Mount Imittos and Mount Parnitha are astounding in their nature, activities and discovery.

Athens & Nearby Islands

Most Greeks agree on one thing, that Athens is one big village. Ancient Athens aside, this relatively young and noisy capital grew in one century from a few thousand people to some four million, and very quickly. Read more bellow...

Athens City

Central Greece

Central Greece

Captivating, mysterious and achingly beautiful; these are only a few words that could be used to describe the former home of King Minos, the birthplace of Zeus and the land where Zorba the Greek once danced his way into the hearts of readers everywhere. Rising like two broad shoulders from the sea, Crete is the largest Aegean island spanning a vast surface area of 8,700 square kilometres. Criss-crossed by mountain ranges, gorges, caves and spectacular summits the island is a hauntingly beautiful reminder of the area’s tumultuous geological past. With its own regional dialect as well as native music, poetry, dance, clothing and customs fiercely maintained by the inhabitants of the island Crete is unlike anywhere else in Greece and often feels as though it’s a country unto itself. The island is divided into four distinct regions (known as ‘prefectures’ to the Greeks), those of Hania, Rethymnon, Heraklion and Lasithi, providing thousands of possibilities linked to ecotourism and alternative tourism.

Cyclades

Cyclades

While the Cyclades might be known for their whitewashed and blue-domed landscapes, the Dodecanese group of islands are known for their rich history, culture and nature. The word Dodecanese comes from Dodeka meaning 12 in Greek, although the main islands in this group are 15, followed by dozens of smaller ones.

Epirus

Epirus

The second largest Greek island in population and size, Evia or Euboea as the Ancient Greeks call it will astound you with its authenticity, nature and enchanting variety.

Evia

Greece’s Ionian Islands have a very special aura about them that’s different from the rest of the country, with their intense blue seas against a backdrop of verdant mountains and imposing rockly landscapes.
