CLASSICAL WITH A MODERN TWIST
|
Athens has it all – the history, the drama, Ancient Greece, the Olympics, and more. Modern-day Athens makes for a great city break, especially with low-cost flights now available.
It doesn’t even have to be summer as temperatures often reach the 20s as late as November. In addition to traditional sites like the Acropolis, Parthenon, Syntagma Square, and Monisteraki, Athens has experienced regeneration in areas like Gazi, Kolonaki, and Kifissia, now the places to be seen. Just north of Athens, coastal towns like Nea Makri with its waterside cafes and tavernas make for an enjoyable day out. Modern winebars, a variety of restaurants, and off-season accommodation deals give you plenty of options. The Athenian Riviera is a playground for the rich and famous, with 50 kilometres of fantastic beaches, chic towns, and great public transport. Cape Sounion, with the Temple of Poseidon, offers stunning views for sunrise or sunset. Alimos, Glyfada, Vouliagmeni, Varkiza, and more offer the perfect mix of swimming, shopping, dining, and nightlife. If you're a golfing fan, the Glyfada Golf Club is also nearby. Asteras Vouliagmenas is the star beach, the place to be seen since 1959. |

Happy People
We just wanted to say a massive thank you for organising our holiday to Athens and Crete. The hotels were fantastic, in particular the Athens location was superb; the ferry accommodation was an added bonus and all the transfers were extremely professional. Your bookings and your organisation of the paperwork made everything so easy for us and we simply had the most perfect holiday. We would definitely use you again and have already recommended you to several people. The team have booked three very different holidays for me, two for a couple and one for a group of nine. They listened to our requirements and used their expert knowledge of Greece to provide us with several options from which to choose. I found them to be very professional, nothing is too much trouble and they strive to find a good deal. I would not hesitate to recommend them. The company has booked me a few different holidays ranging from 2 weeks away in the sun to City Breaks. They have a great knowledge and understanding of your needs and requirements when booking a holiday. They always try to accommodate your budget and work extremely hard to get you what you're asking for. They have an extremely good knowledge of the Greek Islands and never fail when recommending specific places. I would always recommend the team as they are helpful and professional at all times. |
