On our gentle activity holidays in Greece, the classical past overwhelms you: Roman castles, Byzantine churches, Ottoman palaces, fortified watchtowers and timeless, aristocratic villages, unchanged over centuries. With over 160 inhabited islands, Greece boasts an outstanding wealth of natural beauty too: the lush green landscapes of the Ionian, the stony barrenness of the Aegean, the turquoise bays of the Peloponnese and the mountains and beaches of the country’s biggest island, Crete.
Activity holidays in Greece
The spectrum of Greece and her islands means that there really is something for everyone. Most tourists flock to the main summer resorts where they find popular white beaches and a lively nightlife. For our
walking holidays in Greece we’ve opted for the undiscovered corners that seem to sum up everything quintessentially Greek: remote monasteries and churches, traditional mountain villages, remains of ancient buildings and hidden coves for swimming. Choose from
Samos,
Lesbos and the
Peloponnese, or travel out to the island of
Crete for your activity holiday. In Greece, wherever you visit, you’ll find beautiful countryside, wonderful history, a magnificent cultural heritage and some of the friendliest and most down-to-earth people we’ve ever come across.
