Planning Tips

📆 Best Time To Visit

The best time to visit Athens and Santorini is during spring (April-May) or fall (September-October) when temperatures are mild and tourist crowds are moderate. Summer brings intense heat and peak crowds, while winter offers lower prices but some attractions and restaurants may have limited hours.

💰 Average Daily Budget

A couple can expect to spend around €180-220/day (2025), including mid-range hotel accommodation, meals, public transportation, and attraction entries. This can vary significantly between Athens and Santorini, with the island generally being more expensive.

🍽️ Must-Try Foods

Sample Greek classics like souvlaki, moussaka, and fresh Greek salads. Don't miss local specialties like tomato keftedes in Santorini, fresh grilled octopus, dolmades (stuffed grape leaves), and authentic Greek yogurt with honey. In Athens, explore the Central Market for traditional mezedes.

🍻 Local Drinks

Try traditional Greek beverages like ouzo (anise-flavored aperitif), local wines including Santorini's famous Assyrtiko, and retsina (traditional resinated wine). Don't miss Greek coffee served in traditional kafeneia, and cool down with a frappé during hot afternoons.

📸 Must-See Views

In Athens, explore the iconic Acropolis and Parthenon, visit the Acropolis Museum, and wander through the charming Plaka neighborhood. In Santorini, watch the famous sunset in Oia, visit the ancient ruins of Akrotiri, and take a catamaran cruise around the caldera with stops at volcanic hot springs.
