Welcome to Greece 

Introduction 

Greece is a destination that always 

exceeds one’s expectations. 

Everywhere you turn there are hidden 

treasures to be found whether they 

are impressive ruins and their history 

behind them, the various types of 

cuisines differing between regions 

and islands, and even the people 

you meet. The charm of Greece is 

that the experience is never uniform. 

Whether it is your first time or your 

tenth, there is always something new 

to find, see and experience. With 

its golden sands and clear waters, 

mountainous islands and green vine 

fields you will never get bored. Even 

if you are simply relaxing by the sea, 

enjoying a glass of wine in a typical 

taverna, or even on a planned 

sightseeing tour, the memories of 

Greece will last forever. It is sun, sand 

and sea with a difference! 

Population 

Greece’s population was estimated 

to be almost 11 million in 2010 

Time Zone 

Greece is 2 hours ahead of 

Greenwich Mean Time and clocks 

are adjusted to daylight saving time 

at the same time as Europe. 

Official Language 

Greek is the official language, but 

English is becoming more widely 

spoken, especially in the main 

cities and towns by the younger 

generations. 

Currency 

The currency of Greece is the Euro 

(EU). Travellers cheques in Euros, 

Canadian Dollars and US Dollars 

are all accepted. Visa, MasterCard, 

and American Express are all widely 

accepted. 

Climate 

Greece enjoys a Mediterranean 

climate, generally with mild winters 

and warm dry summers though 

this varies between areas due to 

the influence of the sea. Average 

temperatures in winter range from 

10-16 C (Dec-Mar) and 25-28 C 

in summer (Jun-Sep). Light cotton 

clothing along with hats and 

sunglasses is recommended during 

the warmer months, while a warm 

jacket may be required during the 

cooler months. Best time to visit the 

Greek islands is April to October. July 

and August are very busy with large 

number of European tourists. Casual 

dress code is recommended with 

light cotton clothes in the summer. 

Some monasteries may require 

clothing that covers shoulders and 

knees. 

Electricity 

Greece’s current electrical system is 

2 

220V. Two pronged cylindrical round 

adapter plugs are required. 

Food 

Greek cuisine has long been 

considered an ancient traditional 

aspect of Greek Society 

encompassing approximately 

4000 years of history. It is typical 

of Mediterranean cuisine, 

encompassing many aspects of the 

area, including the widespread use 

of olives and olive oil. Most traditional 

tavernas in Athens are located in 

Plaka (Old) district and this is a good 

place to enjoy a Yeros (a meat dish 

served with a sauce on pita bread) 

and Ouzo (the traditional drink made 

from Anise). There is food to suit any 

tastes, from vegetarian to meat 

eaters and also seafood lovers. 

Visitors will quickly discover there is 

more to Greek Cuisine than meets 

the eye. 

Visas 

Canadian passport holders do not 

require a visa for Greece, only a valid 

passport is necessary. 

Getting There 

By Air: Air Canada and Air Transat 

fly from Toronto/Montreal to Athens 

direct several times a week. Several 

other airlines have connections via 

other European cities. 

By Boat: Italy-Greece: There are 

daily overnight ferries from Bari and 

Ancona in Italy to Patra (200 Km west 

of Athens), as well as ferries from 

Brindisi and Venice, but these are not 

daily. There are no ferries from Italy 

to Athens. 

Turkey-Greece: There are daily ferries 

between the months of April to 

October from Kusadasi in Turkey to 

Samos Island, from Bodrun in Turkey 

to Kos Island and from Marmaris in 

Turkey to Rhodes Island. There is no 

direct service, Athens to Istanbul or 

vice versa. 

Athens-Greek Islands: Most services 

by sea from the Greek Islands land at 

Piraeus Port, about 10 Km southwest 

from Athens. 

Getting Around 

Train services in Greece mainly run 

between Athens and Thessaloniki 

and are limited elsewhere. Buses 

connect main cities and villages on 

the mainland. Car hire is suitable 

to get around mainland Greece, 

but parking and navigation around 

main cities can be quite tricky 

at times. In terms of travel to the 

Greek Islands, there are limited 

ferry departures from November to 

March. During high season there are 

regular services from Piraeus to the 

main islands but there are not daily 

services connecting each island. Not 

all islands are connected by direct 

ferry. Local buses are available on 

www.grecianholidays.com 

most islands, but generally they only 

run between the main stops and 

not all hotels can be accessed by 

bus. Taxis are also very limited and 

transfers are highly recommended. 

There are also options for direct 

flights from Athens to main cities and 

islands, limited connections between 

the islands. 

Accomodation 

Accomodation in Greece is diverse 

allowing for the provision of services 

to any taste or budget, from luxury 

to backpacker. Generally for most 

travellers it is essential to pre-book 

accomodation especially for a 

hassle free holiday as many hours 

can be spent searching during high 

season. In most locations, there are 

limited room availabilities, hence we 

recommend pre booking to secure 

accomodation in a good location 

and affordable price to avoid 

disappoinment. 

Shopping 

For those who love to shop, Greece 

is considered a foremost destination. 

There are many bargains to find, 

particularly when looking for gold and 

silver Jewellery and other handicrafts 

such as lace and embroidery, 

ceramics and alabaster. Shopping 

and trading hours vary from location 

and season, but generally Monday to 

Friday 9am to 2:30pm with Tuesday, 

Thursday and Friday open also from 

5:30 to 8:30pm and Saturday 9am 

to 5pm.

Things To Do 

Athens: The Capital city and site of 

the 2004 Olympic games. 

Busting city metropolis, the Acropolis 

stands proud and tall in the centre of 

Athens encompassing the Parthenon, 

and Temple of Athena Nike. For the 

historical lovers; the ancient treasures 

of earlier times can also be found in 

the Archeological Museum, as well 

as Hadrian’s Arch and the Temple of 

Olympian Zeus. The Plaka District has 

always been a favourite with many 

tourists due to its old world charm 

and marbled buildings. Other sites 

around Athens include Constitution 

Square in Syntagma, which is the 

city’s main square surrounded by 

offices, cafes, shopping and the 

House of Parliament (formally the 

Royal Palace), watch the changing 

of the Guards as well as visiting the 

Monument of the Unknown Soldier. 

Mainland Greece: The countryside 

is vastly differing and there are 

many scenes which evoke a sense 

of going back in time. Many sites 

along the way are indivative of 

the history and culture present still 

today. Favoured sites by all include: 

Corinth, Mycenae, Epidaurus 

(famous theatre), Nafplion, Olympia 

(Birthplace of the Olympic Games), 

Delphi (origin of the Oracles), 

and Kalambaka (the magnificent 

Meteora Monasteries). 

Islands: The Greek Islands are 

separated into groups: 

The Saronics: A small group of islands 

located close to Athens. Aegina, 

Poros and Hydra are the most 

popular of this group of Islands. Hydra 

is most favoured due to its distinctive 

architecture, its ruggedness and the 

various colours in the landscapes. 

Cyclades: The most popular group 

of Islands, most famous for the white 

washed buildings and their beaches. 

Mykonos, Paros, Naxos, Ios and 

Santorini are the most visited islands 

within this particular group. Santorini 

is perhaps one of the most famous 

of all of the Greek Islands, mostly for 

its romantic sunsets over the volcano 

and the narrow streets and famous 

restaurants. Mykonos is generally 

known for its beautiful windmills, but 

it also boasts the charm of many 

nightclubs, tiny roadside chapels and 

breathtaking views from all over the 

island. 

Crete: Heraklion, the Capital of Crete 

is most famous for its location being 

near the famous ruins of Knossos; the 

mythical labyrinth of King Minos. 

Dodecanese: of these twelve main 

islands, Rhodes is the most popular 

due to the constant sunshine, and 

stunning beaches. Kos is another, as 

it is best known for the birthplace of 

Hippocrates and Patmos is another 

most famous for its rocky cliffs 

and where St. John spent his time 

in exile, most particularly, it is the 

place in which he wrote his book, 

“Apocalypse”. It also holds a aweinspiring 

monastery at the very top of 

the Island. 

Ionian: These islands are on the 

western side of Greece, the main 

islands of which include Corfu, 

Paxi, Lefkas, Kefalonia, Ithaca and 

Zakinthos. 

Sporades: These islands lie in 

between the Saronics and the 

Cyclades and mainly include 

Skiathos, Skopelos, Allonissos and 

Skyros. These islands are accessible 

by air when flying Athens to Skiathos.

What sets us apart... 

Many years of knowledge and expertise have gone into the 

production of this brochure. We invite you to carefully consider the 

special features and inclusions of our programmes when selecting 

your next trip to Greece. 

Flexible Itineraries 

When planning your holiday, there are only two itinerary choices that 

you have: There is the itinerary that you choose when you are at 

home, and then there is the itinerary that you wish you would have 

chosen when you are on holiday. The expertise that the staff have 

means that we can help you with the planning of your itinerary and 

translate your dreams into reality. It is vital that you get your holiday 

completely correct in the initial planning stage, so that it will all work 

perfectly for you when you are there. In this brochure, we have 

given you a sample of our most popular itineraries. However, we are 

pleased to allow you flexibility on most of our tours. This is especially 

beneficial if you wish to take a tour, but spend more time in one or 

more of the locations. Most of these programs, especially those to 

the Greek Islands can be modified easily with extra nights or even 

extra islands.

Expert Advice 

The staff at Grecian Holidays are all knowledgeable and have 

travelled to the destination and inspected hotels. We can compare 

products and prices, as well as recommending services which would 

be most suitable for your tastes, needs and budgets. We are happy to 

provide information not available on the internet. 

Ferry & Air Routes 

There are several types of boats operating in Greece. Regular ferries, 

hydrofoils, high speed boats, catamarans and flying dolphins. They

for those who wish to combine several islands. Olympic Airline and 

Aegean Air fly between Athens and most main airports in Greece on 

a daily basis. There are limited direct flights between the Greek

We Know Greece Best 

We are There For You 

We are very careful to ensure that, with our preplanning and attention 

to detail, everything runs smoothly for your dream holiday. As we all 

know, however, occasionally issues can and do arise that are beyond 

our control when you are far away from home. So, isn’t it nice to know 

that we have our ground handlers available to you throughout most of 

Greece, and in particular on most islands, to assist you then and there. 

Many Choices 

We offer a large selection of hotels, tours and cruises to suit any taste 

or budget, ranging from the basic to the luxury and even smaller 

boutique hotels for a special experience. Whatever your taste, we 

can find something for you. Our variety of tours complement the 

individuality of every client and we strive to best match everyone to 

their dream holiday. 

Optional Extras 

Most programs are designed in order to represent very good value for 

money, and therefore some tours or transfers may not be included but 

they can be added at an extra charge if you so desire. We can prebook 

additional services such as transfers, car hire, ferry tickets and 

yacht charter. Making these decisions in advance can save you a lot 

of time, energy and money as some of these services can be difficult 

if not impossible to organise once you’re over there, particularly if 

you’re travelling during peak times. Some ferries and hydrofoils to the 

Greek Islands travel only once a day, meaning that they quite often 

can be sold out in advance. Pre-booking transfers is also important to 

avoid the stress of waiting with hundreds of people for one of the few 

taxis available. 

Yia Sou (Pronounced Yassoo) 

This Greek word means both “hello “and “welcome” in Greek. It is one 

of the first words that all visitors to Greece learn as it is said constantly 

by Greeks, who are a very warm and friendly people. Yia sou is exactly 

what will happen when you book with Grecian Holidays. We look 

forward to saying “hello” to you and ensuring that you have a very 

warm “welcome” on your travels throughout Greece. YIA SOU!

past, combining the old with the new. The plaka (the old quarter) is nestled below the slopes of the Acropolis and is the most attractive part of

Santorini 

Santorini is totally unlike any other place on earth. The original circular island was blown apart nearly 3,000 years 

ago by a fierce volcanic eruption. Today one can look and wonder at the beauty created by natural destruction. 

The main town of Fira is clustered along the cliff edge and plunges almost 900 feet into the sea. Santorini is not only 

sheer cliffs, for its outer coast has incredibly long black volcanic beaches. The major archeological site of Akrotiri, 

where part of a Minoan settlement is being excavated may prove to be a new Pompeii. 

How to Get to Santorini

Ferry - from Piraeus Port-10hrs: Daily 

Air - 55 min Few times a day 

Connection to other islands : 

Ferry - to Ios (1 hr), Naxos (3 hrs), Paros (4 hrs), Syros (5 hrs) - Daily

Don’t get caught 

in the World Wide Web 

WWW…. world wide web or world wide worry???? 

The Internet is a superb tool for researching destinations that you might wish to visit as well as what there is to 

see and do when you get there. To a large extent, this is the major advantage of such a brilliant research tool. 

Where it fails, however, is on the booking side due to all of the pitfalls that exist by booking with, in most cases, 

an unknown entity. 

In the event that there are any disputes there is very little if anything that you can do by way of getting your money back. 

In the event that a Volcano erupts or ferry services between the islands get cancelled and disrupt your travel plans, who 

can you turn to in order to salvage your carefully planned holiday? 

This is where Grecian Holidays and our travel agency partners come into the picture. We will ensure 

that you tick all the right boxes so that you have a wonderful holiday and lasting memories for all the right reasons. 

Some questions to ask yourself… can booking your trip though the internet provide you with: 

a comprehensive “one stop shop” for all your holiday or business needs in the Mediterranean region? 

total peace of mind knowing in those rare instances when things do go wrong that someone knowledgeable is there to do 

what it takes and to ensure that your problems become a thing of the past? 

assistance with the complicated ferry system in Greece where the timetable is usually more of a wish list than reality? 

weather issues prevail and ferry services get cancelled, rather than just looking at the one service that was booked through 

this particular web operator? 

a totally reliable source of useful and factual information? 

needs because the source has already been there? 

the knowledge that you will get the best English speaking guides personally chosen for their professionalism and quality 

air-conditioned vehicles, so that the holiday you have saved and waited for a very long time is everything that you always 

hoped it would be? 

information about fare rules, visas, climates, local customs, festivals, dress codes, tipping, the best types of rooms, cabins, 

car types, ferry routes, tours and transfers without spending hours sourcing this information? 

a hotel and tour operator with a superb name and reputation to uphold and that cares about repeat business? 

a very competitive price and we even accept payment by means of Visa, MC and AMEX at no surcharge for land arrangements. 

And the most important last question to ask: 

Do you know who to call when you don’t know the answer? 

You can rest in the knowledge that Grecian Holidays have the answers to these and thousands of other questions just 

like them. We can provide you with the experience and services you actually want, not because the pictures look good 

on the web site, but because we’ve already been there! After all, there’s no substitute for experience. 

For specialist advice from people who really care, call Grecian Holidays today.
