The food and hotel service was amazing. I really enjoyed the view and food. People weren't as nice as they wete in Kavala but still Greek people are kind in general. Locals usually know English so you won't struggle with communication. I recommend eating seafood in Greece.

I love greece and I've been several times since but Crete was one of my previous travel.I went with my family and it's still a really good memory I have. Good food, cats, warm and welcoming people and of course good meteo and landscapes.

In August it gets quite lively but I think each mostly like people coming to their summer houses. The beaches are really pretty 😍. It has a perfect road with not many cars that is perfect for riding a bike along the beach

Well tbh it’s safe enough if you know where you are or if you are going out with a local , but the are a lot of neighbourhoods in Athens that cannot be safe especially for women. Most of the day everywhere is fine , during the night tho it’s another story. You can have fun even if you don’t hang out with locals don’t get me wrong , but we can never be safe enough at least for now.

It's overall a safe city. However there are some very unsafe neighborhoods that you should definitely avoid, especially at night, like Omonia, Victoria, Plateau Vathis, Plateia Amerikis, Kypseli etc.

I felt pretty safe during both the night and day. Only next to the Akropolis area on the built-up neighborhood I saw few creeps but they did not come to me and my friend. Also be careful about thieves

Hi beautiful people!!🌙I'm a film student, really into arts and politics. I love nature and also the street culture. I decided I have to explore the world (inner and outer) so that to remember all the important things we've forgotten. It's nice we can help each other in feeling safe (as capitalism is killing us). Im from the island Crete, now living in Thessaloniki. If you need a place to stay in both places, send me a message, I would love to meet you and showing around or suggest u local (non touristic) places 💗 🇵🇸🏴☠️🧜🏼♀️🦌🦔🌱
