Best places to visit in Greece
- Athens: Visiting Greece’s capital city is a must, as this is where you will find sights like the famous Acropolis and Parthenon. You also won’t want to miss out on going to the Temple of Olympian Zeus, which is directly in the city center.
- Santorini: Famous for its white architecture, beautiful beaches, and the popular villages of Fira and Oia, Santorini is a popular island for visitors to explore. Discover the Ancient Thera, where you can visit the ruins of a former mountaintop city.
- Thessaloniki: To discover some of the country’s most historic buildings, head to Thessaloniki, a port city that is known for its churches and Roman archeology. The White Tower is an impressive landmark in the middle of the city, while Aristotelous Square is a great place to go to a cafe.
Winter in Greece
The cooler months are a great time to discover some popular museums, whether it be the Acropolis Museum, the National Archaeological Museum or the Benaki Museum. Head to Kesariani outside Athens for some hiking without the heat. Opt for an SUV that can easily fit all your luggage and choose a model with all-wheel drive so you can safely go through some of the country’s mountains.

Me and my friends needed a car for a day trip with unlimited miles, so naturally we asked for a few quotations the day before and since sixt was cheapest and also looked very professional we went with them. The guys who work there were really helpful, speak perfect English and we even got a free upgrade in car class!

We had to leave the car at the port, and the extra charge for that was super reasonable. The woman who handled our reservation was very kind and accommodating and helped make our stay extra smooth.
