How can you sum up in just a few words what a week or two can mean in the land that spread the very seeds of civilization across three continents and once ruled the length and breadth of the known world?

Greece is the place of romantic dreams, classical myths and ageless History. The country that gave birth to the Olympian Pantheon, brave men who once ruled the civilized world, inspired artists who created beauty in all of its forms, great thinkers who challenged realities, master poets who beautifully narrated tales of heroism and passion, legendary travellers who tamed the seven seas.

No matter where you travel, the past will always be close at hand adding the spice and flavour of history, day in, day out. Stand in any one of a thousand ancient ruins and you stand in the footsteps of fabled travellers such as Odysseus and Perseus. Take a boat from any one of a thousand harbors, and you are an Argonaut following the wake of Jason.

Blessed with majestic natural beauty, mild weather, bright blue skies, crystal waters and sunny days -even in midwinter Greece is the perfect destination for your holidays.

The most wonderful thing is that although today's Greece is an altogether much more modern experience, nothing has really changed and you can still sit in a terrace taverna,
