Where Myths Come Alive

GREECE IS THE CRADLE OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION, THE BIRTHPLACE OF CULTURE, FROM PHILOSOPHY TO DEMOCRACY, THEATER, AND ART TO THE OLYMPIC GAMES.

It is the land of sunlight, inspired by myths and legends, blessed by the gods with an abundance of natural wonders and diverse landscapes, with a history, heritage and traditions stretching back to ancient times. A country that inspires the senses with the open blue sky and the azure of the sea, with its breathtaking islands and equally incredible mainland, with the scents and flavors of its legendary cuisine and the warmth of its people.
