🇬🇷 Visit Greece in Autumn and Winter, A Travel Guide

Visiting Greece in the Autumn or Winter? this video is for you. What to do, Where to go and How to do it. (Also what you can't do)..

Greece is popular with tourists in the summer, but it can be even better to visit and explore off season, in the Autumn and winter.

The islands are closed outside the summer season, but so mush remains open and accessible, even more accessible as there are less people, crowds, the climate is more manageable and everything is Cheaper.

Athens, the Acropolis and museums are all open, and half price. Explore Plaka, Ermou Street or Syntagma Square without the crowds of tourists, or oppressive summer heat.

Fancy getting out of Athens? no problem, you can travel easily in the fantastic Peloponnese, visiting Nafplio, Kalamata, Spata, Epidaurus, Ancient Corinth or Olympia.

If you wish to HIRE A CAR to Explore Greece I suggest you use a comparison site.
Discovercars is 'Highly Rated' by customers and offer car rental deals in Greece and beyond from many companies and locations.

The weather may not be guaranteed, but it will likely be pretty good and the one thing that is constant all year round is the fantastic Greek food, people and culture.

Thinking of Greece or Athens in December? January? or February?, my advice, just come and enjoy!

Thank you for this. A lot of travel advice on Greece assumes summer travel and that everybody's interested in swimming/lounging in the beach, ignoring travelers who're rather interested in cultural sights and gastronomy and don't care for the beach.

One of the most motivated and useful video 📸 I watched ever about Athens ❤❤❤🎉🎉

[authentictuscany]

Great video again full of useful information! It's so true what you say - it's the Greek people and culture that make Greece so special!

[Arcadian]

Awesome channel with some very helpful information. I'm planning on visiting the mainland in October 2024.

Brilliant video 👏🏻. We are looking to fly over in October as we are fascinated to see it out of season so this was very helpful. My parents want to purchase a place near Nafplio to live after just one holiday in May! The wonderful Greeks and beautiful Greece certainly have that impact. Keep up the great work.

The "winter season" for ferries is from 1 November till 31 March. Yes, there are less ferries and nearly no highspeed ferries. But even in winter there are daily ferries to the islands. Not to all of them but still to a lot.

Great vid, but are the mosquitos less aggressive in winter? THAT's what WE want to know.

This was such a great video that we booked a trip for this February! Thank you for making it. We are doing what you suggested and focusing on Athens and the Peloponnese region. With Hydra being a larger island, do you think it is worth visiting it during our 10-day trip or should we stick to the mainland?

[jupite]

Excellent, you do a better job than the Greek Tourist Bureau.

[torasmith]

Thankyou. I'm thinking of Crete from late October as a family break at half term. Will there be a few attractions open then or not? Also wondering weather/sea swimming Temps- we're quite Hardy 😂 but will want warth/sun - thanks

Hi Andrew,

I am planning for Athens and Santorini in January. Please suggest if Santorini would be closed during January.

[hadbl]

Hello, planning a trip to Athens in February. How is the public transportation. I won’t have a car. I only speak English, will I have trouble communicating?

[Jasmine-ekhg]

I’m planning to either visit Santorini in October or December. Would December be a good option? I’m not interested in swimming I’m more intrigued about the views.

[malini]

Hi . I am from India. What about early November. Is it good to visit Greece at that time of the year? And also let me how would be tge weather at that time

[bomcl]

Hi, on January 1st week, is Ferry going to Santorini available?

[cricgan]

Hi, where would u recommend going in Greece in December? Planning for a 5-6 day trip

[AGCrypto]

Your videos are impressive and superbly edited, truly deserving more views. A constructive suggestion: your thumbnails could be more enticing. Ideally, your thumbnails should avoid using words. However, if you must, keep it to a bare minimum, like just a couple words. Remember, the right thumbnail can bridge the gap between hundreds and hundreds of thousands of views.

Great video, I’m traveling into kalamata and headed down to Koroni and Pylos the first two weeks in October. Do you think the beach bars will still be open and the water warm enough to swim? Thank you

[HEATWARMER]

[frankdaneluzzi]

Hi Andrew how are you? Are you still in Nafplio? Care to meet up for a coffee?
