Solo travel experience

I went this year on my own and it was fantastic. My itinerary was Athens, Corfu, Zakynthos, Meteora, Crete, Milos, and Santorini for a month. Beautiful and safe country, with friendly and helpful people. The transportation was good, the ferries were great for crossing to the islands. I recommend hiring a tour in each place. You will get to know it better than on your own.

Solo travel experience

I visited 3 beautiful islands in Greece: Mykonos, Naxos, and Santorini. First, I visited Mykonos, which is one of the most beautiful islands in Greece. It's known for its ancient windmills overlooking the sea and its small beach in the city center, called "Venice Beach". There's also the magnificent "Super Paradise" beach. The only drawback is the prices of the hotels, which are a bit high. I recommend booking a hotel away from the city center and renting a scooter. Then, I took a ferry to Naxos, a very lively island that I really enjoyed. It's known for its historic arch, the old Venetian Castle, and its cafes overlooking the marina and its paradisiacal beaches (especially Plaka Beach). And the grand finale was Santorini. I had to take a ferry from Naxos to get there. The hotels are cheaper than in Mykonos. There are three places to visit: Fira, Firostefani, and Oia. Oia is the most famous, but most people stay in a hotel in the center of Fira, where you can take buses to get around (to Oia or Firostefani).

Solo travel experience

Naxos was my favorite island - gorgeous beaches, traditional little villages, ancient ruins, and delicious restaurants. Loved Santorini too, but I went in October so it wasnโ€™t very crowded. Not sure that Iโ€™d go in the summer, but it was a jaw-dropping kind of place.
