Greece - 5 Day Vacation Itinerary

Greece is full of history. The whole country is actually a living museum. Since we are in Europe for 21 days, we carve out 5 days to visit this majestic country ( 20 to 24 July ).

We look forward to the opportunity to trace the “fingerprints” of Greek history from the Paleolithic Era to the Roman Period in the hundreds of archaeological sites, as well as in the archaeological museums and collections that are scattered throughout the country.

In order to see the country in the most efficient way, we decided to join a tour package offered by Keytours which received very good reviews from Tripadvisor.

We took the 4 Day Classical Greece Tour package and one of their 1-Day Island hopping tours which covers Poros - Hydra - Aegina Cruise from Athens.
