History, islands and nature. From the birth of democracy to the unique sunsets.

Greece could be divided between the continent and the four archipelagos, a trip to Greece always represents the challenge of choosing the destination and perhaps deciding which island to land on: Kerkyra, Samaria, Amorgós, Santorini, Crete, Mykonos, Rhodes…

Almost fifteen thousand kilometers of coastline in a country whose cultural heritage is also a must. Home of Athens democracy, Sparta courage and mount Olympus, Greece has so much to offer that visiting for a year could not be enough.
