Vacation Packages to Greece from Halifax
A Greek vacation is an odyssey to antiquity, fed by the warmth of the local people and bathed in glorious sunny days. Welcoming over 20 million tourists annually, Greece remains one of the most popular European destinations. Everywhere you look, history comes alive; in the many archeological sites and ancient ruins, the 150 museums, numerous galleries and even the land and sea itself.
The Acropolises of Athens and Rhodes, Argos, Mount Olympus, Sparta - the list is endless. But Greece is much more than a land lost in time, much more. Greece has over 700 therapeutic thermosprings scattered throughout the country. The perfectly laid out islands (about 2000 of them but only about 200 inhabited) can easily be explored using local ferries, on a sailing adventure or aboard a cruise ship, with each of the islands offering their own unique flavour.
The romantic island of Santorini rests in the Aegean Sea and its perched, whitewashed buildings set against the rich blue backdrop of the sea make it one of the country's most photographed scenes and a popular honeymoon destination. Alternatively, Mykonos, famous for its nightlife, has been called the "Ibiza of Greece" and along with the island of Ios, draws a younger crowd. Ancient Crete is the largest of the islands and a great spot to rent a car and explore. Drive past scenic olive, orange and lemon groves and up to one of the many mountainous peaks or down to see Europe's largest natural palm forest in Vai, and of course, the beaches!
