The island of Corfu in the northwestern corner of Greece is the greenest and in the eyes of many, the most beautiful island in the country. With more rainfall than any other island there is a variety and abundance of plant life that makes the Ionian islands look like moonscapes...

Choose from villas and hotels in all ranges of sizes, styles and classes, in and around Chania, Agios Nikoalaos, and Iraklion. Crete is simply too big and too multi-dimensional to breeze in and out of for a couple days. Pick a base, or a number of them, and tour about from there...

UNDERSTAND GREECE:
Greece gets fewer tourists than many European countries. For backpackers, it is out of the way from the popular France-Spain-Italy route, and still has a lot of untouched charm. The Acropolis may never be deserted, but there will never be as many tourists there as at the Eiffel Tower.
In many areas you may not see another tourist, a thing which is hard to come by these days in the travel scene. The main Greek islands are always teeming with tourists, but offer beautiful white-washed houses, relaxed lifestyles and spectacular beaches. But don't lose sight of mainland Greece which has a lot to offer, and the lesser known Greek Islands. Many of the popular sights in Greece are the sites of ancient cities. On Peloponnese you'll find ancient Olympia (sanctuary dedicated to Zeus, site of the original Olympics), Epidaurus, Mycenae, Corinthos, Mystras. Sparta, Parta and Monemvasia are also popular. North of the gulf of Korinth ancient Delphi can be found. In Central Greece you can visit the monasteries of Ioannina, Meteora, Larissa, Volos (ancient Iolkos, beginning of the Argonautic Expedition) and the mountain villages in Pelion (Land of the Centaurs, popular greek summer and winter tourist resort) ....   More about Greece
