🇬🇷 Your Complete Guide to Greece Holidays

Greece holidays are where timeless beauty meets endless sunshine. From ancient wonders in Athens to the whitewashed villages of the Cyclades, this sun-soaked destination offers everything — history, beaches, food, culture, and a laid-back island vibe that’s impossible to resist.

Whether you’re after a romantic break, a family-friendly escape, or an all-inclusive beach holiday, Greece delivers on every front — and all just a short flight from the UK. At Awesome Trips, we curate Greece holiday packages that let you explore your dream island, dive into local culture, and unwind in style.

🏛️ Ancient History & Iconic Cities

No trip to Greece is complete without standing beneath the Acropolis in Athens — the birthplace of democracy and one of the most iconic ancient sites in the world. Wander through temples, take in panoramic city views, and enjoy mezze platters at local tavernas by night.

For a city break with a twist, try Thessaloniki — Greece’s second city and a cultural gem in the north. Think Byzantine ruins, seaside promenades, buzzing street food, and local life with fewer crowds than Athens.

Our city break packages in Greece include return flights, handpicked central hotels, and flexible extras like guided tours and skip-the-line tickets.

🏝️ Island Escapes & Beach Holidays

Greece is world-famous for its islands — and for good reason. Santorini draws couples and honeymooners with its cliffside villas, luxury hotels, and postcard-worthy sunsets. It’s romantic, stylish, and stunning at every angle.

Mykonos is the party-loving sibling, where beach clubs meet designer boutiques, but you’ll also find peaceful coves and luxurious hideaways if you want a more relaxed stay.

For something more family-friendly or traditional, Crete, Rhodes, and Zakynthos are top picks. They offer long sandy beaches, authentic towns, and plenty of activities for all ages — from waterparks to boat trips and historic forts.

We also offer multi-island Greece holidays, where you can split your stay between 2 or 3 islands — all seamlessly arranged with ferries or flights included.

🌅 All-Inclusive Greece Holidays

Want zero stress? Go for one of our all-inclusive Greece holidays. Resorts across Crete, Rhodes, and Corfu offer beachfront settings, pools, spas, kids’ clubs, and endless food and drinks — all included in one package.

These holidays are ideal for families, couples or groups who want to enjoy the sun without worrying about add-ons or surprise expenses. We’ve handpicked resorts that offer great value, local flavour, and unbeatable locations.

Plus, many include extras like airport transfers, welcome drinks, and optional excursions — all covered by ATOL protection.

🍇 Greek Food, Culture & Local Life

Greek food is one of the highlights of any trip — and it’s even better enjoyed al fresco. From souvlaki and fresh seafood to feta, olives, and honey-drizzled baklava, every meal is a celebration of local ingredients and warm hospitality.

Take a cooking class in Crete, sip wine at a vineyard in Santorini, or visit a local market in Athens — there’s no better way to connect with Greek culture than through its food and people.

And it’s not just about food — you’ll find ancient theatres, churches, festivals, music, and local traditions alive in every village and island.

📅 Best Time to Visit Greece

The best time for Greece holidays from the UK depends on your travel style. For warm weather without the crowds, May, June, September, and early October are ideal. You’ll enjoy sunny days, perfect sea temperatures, and fewer tourists.

July and August are high season, great for beach holidays and buzzing nightlife — especially in Mykonos and Santorini — but expect higher prices and more heat.

Spring and early autumn are ideal for cultural trips and outdoor activities like hiking, cycling, and sightseeing.
