Why GREECE
Greece is the word. Literally- as it is synonymous with beauty, grace, elegance, spirituality, mysticism and a whole host of emotions. To explore Greece is to step back in time to an ancient world existing peacefully and gorgeously with the modern, and to dive into a place that overwhelms your senses with a stunning natural beauty not easily found anywhere else. This is a place with ancient history, incredible stories, a fabulous climate, biodiversity, and did we mention the islands? Beautiful countless offerings with stunning beaches, crystal clear waters, charming old-world villages, spectacular ruins and delicious cuisine to sample as you hop along from one to the next..
