For a mixture of fun and culture visit Greece

Greece provides a perfect mix of history and culture on the one hand and sunshine and a great social scene on the other. Most tourists arrive in Athens which provides a great starting point for exploring Greece. You can visit the ruins at the Acropolis and the true home of civilisation. What attracts most people, of course is the islands around Greece where they can soak up the sunshine and relax on the beach.

In this regard there are some great island destinations. Rhodes provides a particularly good place for a visit as does Crete and Paros. The history of these islands is a fantastic insight into ancient Greece and there is a great social scene, particularly during the summer months.

Alternatively, why not try a boat trip around the islands of Greece. Small yachts are available on an all inclusive basis and there are some fantastic deals available. This way you can let the skipper do all the work and relax on the deck of your very own private yacht. This is a great option for those travelling with families or small groups of friends. Wherever you decide to spend your holidays, Greece provides a great option and from beaches to monuments there is a perfect mix of sunshine and culture.
