Luxury holidays in Greece

 
From the glorious beaches of over 150 inhabited islands, to the pine-scented hills of the rural coast, Greece boasts an astonishing variety of landscapes. 

Around the corner from every deserted beach or bustling seaside taverna you may find a Hellenic temple of the purest simplicity; strategically placed Roman ruins; Byzantine monasteries of ingenious design; hilltop Venetian forts or a charming Ottoman water fountain. 

Above all, Greece is a land of simple pleasures and great beauty.
 

Mainland Greece

The remarkable culture, landscape and unspoilt villages of mainland Greece make it ideal for travellers seeking the heart of the country. Modern Athens is a joy to discover as are the historic sites of former capital Nafplion, while the wonderful beaches and pretty villages of Halkidiki is Greece's best-kept secret.

Greek Islands

The islands of Greece each have their own beauty and charm. Picturesque harbours, crystal clear waters lapping countless beaches and quaint fishing villages are just a taste of what you may enjoy on Greece’s many islands. Explore the traditional lifestyle set amidst stylish bars and boutiques on Mykonos, the towering cliffs, black sand beaches, whitewashed houses and varied cuisine of Santorini, the dramatic scenery, archaeological remains and clear blue seas of Crete or beautiful wooded island of Skiathos with its wealth of sandy beaches. Alternatively the Ionian Islands, surrounded by the azure Ionia Sea include Ithaka combining mountain villages with shores of white sand, rugged Kefalonia with lush valleys, numerous bays and time-honoured hospitality and Zakynthos, the southernmost and most dramatic of the Ionian Islands.
