A lot of Europeans choose Greece as their summer destination each year. This is not a huge surprise since Greece always has great weather, the food is fantastic and it is very affordable. Although most people choose to go to one island during their trip it is also possible to travel around multiple islands. We decided to visit Athens and four islands during an island-hopping trip of 15 days traveling around with a ferry.
Part 1: Athens
We stayed for 3 nights at the beginning and 2 nights at the end, we think this was the perfect amount
Athens is one of the oldest cities in the world and is the warmest city in Europe and is known for its history, culture and ancient monuments. The most famous monument of Athens is the ‘Parthenon’ which is part of the well known ‘Acropolis’ site. We used this city as our launching point for our two weeks of island hopping.
