Everyone knows about our age-old Greek civilisation. But more
and more people are getting to know personally the Greece of
today: colourful countryside, black lava beaches, white and
golden and pebble beaches, hospitable people, little
blindingly white houses, blue sea and impressive remains from
the past. If you like discovering things, sunbathing,
swimming, walking and classical culture as well, then Greece
is your holiday destination. You will keep coming back.
