About Greece

Greece – A Land of Timeless Beauty and Warm Welcome

Few places in the world captivate the imagination quite like Greece. From ancient ruins steeped in myth to sweeping coastlines, secluded beaches and glittering seas, Greece has it all. Its islands brim with character, its cuisine is a celebration of simple Mediterranean flavours, and its people are among the friendliest you’ll ever meet.

Whether you’re hopping between sun-drenched islands, tracing the footsteps of philosophers at world-renowned archaeological sites, wandering off the beaten track in the Peloponnese, or joining a small-group walking tour, your Greek holiday can be as relaxed or as adventurous as you wish.

Greece’s legendary hospitality and breathtaking scenery aren’t just tales of old — they’re waiting to be rediscovered, one unforgettable moment at a time.

Tailor-Made Holidays

Your perfect Greek escape begins with you. We can design a completely tailor-made itinerary to suit your interests and budget, pre-booking as much or as little as you wish. From handpicked accommodation and private transfers to car hire, domestic flights, ferries, excursions and activities — everything is arranged seamlessly. And for extra peace of mind, our dedicated team in Greece is always on hand should you need assistance while you’re away.

Self-Drive Holidays

Experience the freedom of the open road and explore Greece at your own pace. Our carefully designed Self-Drive Holidays reveal both the famous highlights and the hidden gems.

Discover the dramatic landscapes of Enticing Epirus, with visits to Meteora’s monasteries, the lakeside charm of Ioannina, and pristine mountain scenery in the north. Travel along the Treasures of the Peloponnese route to see the Corinth Canal, ancient Epidavros, and elegant Nafplion. Or follow in the footsteps of antiquity along The Classical Roads of Greece, uncovering legendary sites from mythology and history alike.

On Crete, Greece’s largest island, rich culture meets rugged natural beauty — a self-drive adventure here might just inspire you to return for longer.

If you prefer a more leisurely pace, we can create a bespoke itinerary to match your interests and include the sights you most want to experience and with so many remarkable sites to discover, our tours provide the ideal introduction to Greece’s rich past and vibrant present.

Short Breaks to Greece

If you’re short on time, a Greek short break offers a world of experience within easy reach. Frequent flights from the UK make it simple to slip away for a few days of sunshine, exploration and fabulous food.

At Rediscover, we’ve long been passionate about showing travellers the real Greece. Our connections and local expertise mean we can offer an unrivalled selection of short escapes — from a weekend soaking up the ancient atmosphere of Athens and its magnificent Acropolis Museum, to day trips to Olympia, Delphi, or the charming Saronic Islands of Aegina, Poros and Hydra.

Island Hopping in Greece

With over 3,000 islands scattered across crystal-clear seas, it seems a shame to stop at just one. Each island has its own unique charm — from the cosmopolitan buzz of Mykonos and the romantic sunsets of Santorini, to the traditional feel of Aegina and the calm of traffic-free Hydra.

While island hopping might sound like the preserve of the truly independent traveller, we make it effortless. We’ll take care of the details — ferries, accommodation, transfers and even sightseeing — so you can relax and enjoy the magic of Greece without a worry.

Walking Holidays in Greece

Walking in Greece is a journey through nature, myth and living tradition. Lace up your boots and explore Mount Olympus, home of the ancient gods; the awe-inspiring Meteora Monasteries; and the dramatic landscapes of Vikos–Aoos National Park, where the Vikos Gorge carves one of the deepest canyons in the world.

Wander through Zagori’s stone villages or trace the coastal trails of the Pelion Peninsula (you may even recognise it from Mamma Mia!). On Crete, our self-guided hiking itineraries uncover the island’s wild western and southern reaches. Choose from small-group departures or private treks — all promise the perfect blend of culture, scenery and discovery.
