Let’s Take a Virtual Vacation to Greece

Travel may be off the books for the foreseeable future, but that doesn’t mean you can’t indulge in a little armchair travel. Here’s how to visit Greece from the comfort of your home! 

YouTube is our best friend here, but we’ve included some suggestions for interactive activities and recipes too, to really help you recreate that vacation vibe. Of course a proper vacation is at least 7 days so we’ve given you suggestions for each day, and some background reading if you want to go deeper

So get comfortable and join us for a virtual whirlwind tour of Greece.

Day 1 – Athens

Most international arrivals to Greece will fly in to Athens International Airport. Remember that feeling of anticipation as your flight is coming in to land? Luckily you can relive it with airport approach and landing videos on YouTube! Here’s one for Athens:

First up on our agenda is to explore Ancient Athens. If it’s your first time in Athens then the Acropolis is probably the most exciting and recognisable landmark for you.

You’ll need something to power you up – if you’ve got instant coffee in the house then you can easily whip up a Greek-style frappe . And to accompany it a slice of portokalopita (orange cake).  

A great way to get a feel for what ancient Athens would have looked like is to play Assassin’s Creed Odyssey on PS4, Xbox-One or PC. The team created an amazing rendition, and there’s a standalone version called Discovery Tour where you can explore the world without the gameplay . If you don’t want to buy the game then check out these YouTube videos of the game world.

This video by Super BunnyHop compares the videogame version to the real sites. And Ancient Sites in Athens (Amazing Places on Our Planet) will also give you an idea of what these sites look like today.

You can check out another virtual reconstruction over at at Ancient Athens 3D .

There are countless documentaries you can find online such as Secrets of the Acropolis – Discovery UK .

How about some light reading?

• Stephen Fry – Mythos: The Greek Myths Retold (I recommend listening to the audiobook for the full Stephen Fry experience)
• Circe and The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller
• Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief by Ric Riordan

Many of the items from the Acropolis excavations are now in the fabulous Acropolis Museum, a real highlight of the city. You can take a virtual tour of its collection with Google Arts and Culture – Acropolis Museum .

Test what you’ve learned with the Airbnb Experience – True vs False: Funny Historical Game .

Time for dinner! Greek food culture is big on eating out so treat yourself to a taverna meal. Lamb moussaka (or vegetarian version ) is satisfying to recreate at home. Serve up with a side salad and some red wine.

For some mood music, put on some Manos Hadjidakis whilst you’re eating. Round the evening off with a viewing of Disney’s Hercules or 300 .

Day 2 in Athens – Explore Modern Athens

Athens isn’t just about the Acropolis though – this video from Discover Athens gives you an idea of the modern city’s lively and creative vibe:

Let’s dive into the modern Athens with more short videos from around the city:

• Walk Around Plaka with Grounded Life Travel
• Street Art in Athens
• Best Things to Do in Athens with WithLocals
• 36 Hours in Athens with the New York Times

If you’re in the mood for something more immersive you can sign up for a virtual tours with Awesome Athens Virtual Street Art Walk .

Or take a virtual tour of the impressive modern art collection at the Goulandris Foundation .

For some serious background reading you might like check out these books:

• Roderick Beaton – Greece: Biography of a Modern Nation
• Sofka Zinovieff – Eurydice Street: A Place in Athens

And these articles:

• BBC – Why does Athens look so quirky?
• Harpers Bazaar – Athens Arts Culture Guide
• This Is Athens: Athens for Art and Design Lovers

No need for full-on meal prep tonight – keep it light and simple with these feta fries and listen to Imam Baildi who weave retro Greek classics into a modern sound.

Day 3 – Virtual Vacation to Skiathos

Today we’re heading to the island of Skiathos which is part of the Sporades island group. It’s a short flight from Athens and has one of the most spectacular (and nail-biting) airport landings in Europe!

Skiathos is one of the greenest Greek islands and is also one of the best for beaches , so it’s perfect for getting your vacation groove on. It’s small and compact so let’s have a quick virtual wander around Skiathos Town and some of the island’s best beaches.

Of course, Skiathos is most famous for being one of the filming locations for Mamma Mia ! – along with neighbouring island Skopelos and Pelion on the mainland. In real life you can take a boat trip to some of the locations but today we’ll have to make do with watching the film.

For dinner, let’s take a Greek Cooking Lesson with Julia on Airbnb. Or you could DIY that eternal taste of a Greek beach vacation, the chicken souvlaki . Get the ouzo in (you’ll probably need some after that landing) and then put your feet up and enjoy Mamma Mia !

Just the first one though, as the sequel was filmed in Croatia.

Day 4 – Virtual Vacation in Corfu

One benefit of virtual travelling is that we’re unencumbered by schedules and routes, so today we’re whizzing west to Corfu (which would be a bit more difficult in real life). Corfu also has a spectacular airport approach:

Today’s trip to Corfu is a thinly-veiled excuse to binge-watch the much-loved BBC series The Durrells . It’s is available to purchase on Amazon and also sometimes pops up on Netflix. If you can’t find it you’ll have to content yourself with this trailer, and perhaps also the original book My Family and Other Animals by Gerald Durrell.

One of the most popular day trips on Corfu is a boat to the nearby islands of Paxos and Antipaxos with their incredible turquoise waters and pretty villages:

For today’s activity we will start learning some Greek. It’s a difficult language – but fun! And if you learn the alphabet now it will really help when you can visit again. You can take the free course on the DuoLingo app, try the free Language Transfer course, Greekpod 101 on Youtube, or find a tutor on iTalki .

You can indulge any fantasies you have of moving to the island by reading Emma Tennant – A House on Corfu .

For dinner, prawn and feta saganaki is easy to whip up and is full of the tastes of summer.

Day 5 – Virtual Island Hopping in the Cyclades

This morning we’ll be taking the ferry to Santorini. The above video gives you a good idea of what to expect from Greek ferries. It makes a few stops on the way. Be warned, ferry videos are a YouTube rabbithole – I have lost many an hour this way.

Pick up a copy of Lawrence Durrell – Greek Islands – it’s perfect for flicking through whilst whiling away hours on ferry decks. And make another frappe or two.

The Cycladic island group is located in the heart of the Aegean Sea and is home to two of the most popular destinations in Greece – Santorini and Mykonos – as well as a wealth of quieter gems. Rick Steves covers Santorini and Mykonos in this episode of Europe (as well as Rhodes, which is not in the Cyclades):

Vloggers and influencers love Santorini and Mykonos so there’s no shortage of online content for you to devour:

No virtual vacation to Greece is complete without a sunset:

But it’s always good to get off the beaten track so why not check out these videos:

• Milos Island of Colours – Singular Pulse
• Youtubers The Way We Saw It in Sikinos , Kimolos , and Anafi

If you have Amazon Prime there are several series of Greek Odyssey available to you. Join Peter Maneas as he attempts to visit every single Greek island on his super swanky yacht. He visits the Cyclades in the second half of series 2, including Kythnos, Syros and Milos.

For dinner, let’s keep things fresh and light with a classic Greek salad and this Black Eyed Pea Salad . For your evening viewing, you can take your pick of Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (Santorini), Shirley Valentine (Mykonos), or Big Blue (Amorgos).

Day 6 – Virtual Vacation on Crete

Crete is the largest Greek island and there’s so much to discover. There’s a bit of everything here. First let’s touch down in Chania:

We have a lot of ground to cover but this playlist of Youtube 4k tours from Tourister will cover the main sights:

One of the big attractions on Crete is the ancient Minoan palace of Knossos just outside Heraklion . Let’s visit Knossos with the help of Assassin’s Creed, Invicta and Josho Brouwers:

And here’s the site today:

Another fascinating place on Crete is Spinalonga, a small island in the Gulf of Elounda which was once home to a leper colony. You can learn more about it in Victoria Hislop’s popular novel The Island . Here’s Spinalonga in 4k:

Tonight, this Lemony Chicken with Potatoes and Green Beans is on the menu and the film of choice is the classic Zorba The Greek which is set on Crete (be warned, it’s not as fluffy as the other movie choices).

In honour of Zorba, after dinner you can go dancing with Learn Greek dancing (online experience) or Mattormateo (Youtube).

Day 7 – Virtual Tour of the Mainland

Before we head home we’ll see some of the unmissable sites on the Greek mainland.

Let’s join Rick Steves on his visit to the medieval village of Monemasia:

Most of the blockbuster ancient sites are on the mainland – and we can visit Epidaurus , Mycenae and Delphi with the Assassin’s Creed Discovery Tour before watching this 4k tour from Amazing Places Around the World:

FreKoMovie takes us to the most beautiful places in the Peloponnese:

Power yourself up for your journey home with a hearty stew like beef stifado ,  lamb kleftiko , or pea and potato stew .

If you’re keen to read some travel memoirs about Greece, these classics were written about the mainland: 

• Henry Miller – Colossos of Maroussi
• Patrick Leigh Fermour – Roumeli
• Patrick Leigh Fermour – Mani: Travels in the Southern Peloponnese

And finally, let’s take a quick visit to Mount Olympus – home of the ancient gods:

First time Mykonos: top tips for your first visit to Greece's party island

Aug 11, 2021 • 6 min read

Mykonos is known as a party island, but there's plenty more to see and do © proslgn / Shutterstock

Mykonos is the party animal of the Cycladic islands, Greece’s answer to Ibiza, with bronzed bodies thronging its beaches by day and bass lines pounding through its superclubs until dawn. But there’s more to Mykonos than the dazzling sand and insatiable revelers.

Spend a little time on  Mykonos  to discover the quiet charm of the Cycladic maze of Hora , the pleasure of traveling the backcountry roads and a dining scene to rival the other Greek islands .

Best beaches on Mykonos

Whether you’re looking for a tiny, secluded cove lapped by cerulean waters or a wide stretch of sugar-white sand covered with sun worshippers, Mykonos has a beach to suit your needs. The island boasts 25 beaches, and they’re justifiably Mykonos' biggest natural attraction. Partygoers should look no further than Paradise or Super Paradise, dominated by eponymous beach clubs.  Paraga and Psarou are other favorites for beach parties. Popular with families,  Elia is Mykonos’ longest sweep of white sand, while Platys Gialos and Kalafatis are particularly good for water sports.

On the north coast, Panormos and Agios Sostis receive a fraction of visitors of the southern beaches and have naturist-friendly sections. Pebbled Myrsine and Fokos ' coves, reachable via rutted tracks off the northeast coast, offer seclusion and refuge from the crowds. In the southwest, Ornos bustles with dozens of seafront restaurants, while secluded Agios Ioannis is a good spot for windsurfing.

The 12 best beaches in Greece

Best things to do beyond Mykonos' beaches

On the west side of the island, the tiny capital Hora (aka Mykonos Town) is Mykonos’ second-biggest attraction, after the beaches. You can lose yourself for hours in the enchanting warren of narrow pedestrian streets bedecked with bougainvillea and lined with picture-perfect, tiny churches, restaurants and boutiques. The Archaeological Museum of Mykonos  is well worth your while, as is the informative  Aegean Maritime Museum .

The shopping in Mykonos is excellent. For art, check out Mavrogenous Street. Greek designers line Matogliani, while Little Venice is great for casual fashion, jewelry and tacky souvenirs . Hora’s other delights include an appealing open-air cinema, Cine Manto , and a smattering of quirky art galleries, such as Rarity Gallery and  Art and Soul . The island’s hilly interior is dotted with small traditional villages, quite a contrast to the merry bustle of the coast. Swing by the only other settlement of any size in Mykonos, Ano Mera, and have a look at its pretty, whitewashed Tourliani Monastery , just off the taverna-lined main square.

Best nightlife in Mykonos

During the peak months of July and August, Mykonos doesn’t sleep. Hora has several clubs, including several gay and gay-friendly venues, but it’s the beach superclubs such as Cavo Paradiso , Super Paradise and Paradise Club that attract local and international DJs every night. Beach parties kick off in the afternoon, and the action keeps going until dawn. Regular shuttle buses ferry revelers between Hora, Paradise Beach and Super Paradise Beach. Those looking for a more sedate nocturnal pastime can check out the bars in Hora – anything from champagne cocktails at the Queen of Mykonos  and Galleraki or cheap shots at the Skandinavian Bar .

What to do on Mykonos

• Diving:  Mykonos has plenty of walls, caves and wrecks to entice beginners and advanced divers alike. Diving operators are based on Paradise Beach, Lia Beach and Kalafatis Beach. The most reputable outfits include Mykonos Diving Center  and GoDive Mykonos .
• Historical sites:  Mykonos is the gateway to the sacred island of Delos , the mythical birthplace of Apollo and Aphrodite, a Unesco World Heritage site and one of the most important and well-preserved archaeological sites in Greece. Daily boat trips depart from the pier in Hora.
• Mountain biking:  Mykonos island has a hilly interior, quiet backcountry roads, tranquil villages and several practically deserted beaches along the north coast. Yummy Pedals tailors guided mountain-biking tours of the island to suit your skill level.
• Sunset watching:  Prime spots for watching the greatest free show on earth include the bars of Little Venice in Hora, Kato Mili (a classic quartet of windmills on a hillock overlooking Little Venice) and Agios Ioannis beach.
• Swimming:  Mykonos doesn’t lack places to take a plunge, from infinity pools at top hotels and private plunge pools to 25 beautiful sandy beaches that fringe the island.
• Water sports:  Head to the Windsurf Centre Mykonos on Kalafatis Beach for lessons, or try your hand at adrenaline-packed activities such as flyboarding, wakeboarding and wakeskating with  Platys Gialos Watersports on the eponymous beach.

Where to stay on Mykonos

If money is no object, first-timers to Mykonos should opt for a beachfront boutique hotel with all the trappings of an upmarket Greek island property: elegant Cycladic curves, infinity pool, whitewashed interior, beamed ceilings, terraces that catch the breeze from the Aegean. Most are clustered around the beaches on the south coast, such as Platys Gialos. Standout options include Nissaki , Palladium  and Branco Mykonos . Travelers on a budget and looking to party can score sea views by staying at the Paraga Beach Hostel . Otherwise, numerous accommodations suit all budgets in and around Hora, from wallet-friendly MyCocoon Hostel and Hotel Matina  with a beautiful garden to the glamorous Bill & Coo Coast Suites and contemporary Semeli Hotel .

Where to eat on Mykonos

Mykonos has a terrific dining scene. The densest concentration of dining options is in Hora, where visitors can find anything from upmarket fusion dining represented by M-Eating and  Funky Kitchen to traditional Greek tavernas such as Joanna’s Nikos Place . You can find plenty of options along Platys Gialos Beach and Ornos Beach. Pretty much every single beach on Mykonos island has at least one decent restaurant, the most renowned of which is Kiki’s Taverna above Agios Sostis beach.

When to go to Mykonos

Peak travel time to Mykonos is June to September, so hotel prices are at their highest, and the beaches, restaurants and nightclubs are packed. Shoulder season (April to early June, late September and October) is arguably a more pleasant time to visit. You get the beaches minus the crowds, and accommodation prices are lower. In winter, it may be too cold for sunbathing and swimming, but bonuses include empty beaches and plenty of bargain accommodations. Many Mykonos residents rent out their houses in summer and return during low season, so lots of restaurants stay open year-round.

Best time to go to Greece

How to get to Mykonos

Throughout the year, frequent ferries connect Mykonos with Athens’ ports of Rafina and Piraeus, as well as the neighboring islands of Tinos and Andros. In high season, high-speed catamarans link Mykonos with numerous other Cycladic islands, including Santorini and Paros. Check OpenSeas  for timetables. Mykonos Airport has year-round flights to Athens and Thessaloniki, as well as to European destinations during high and shoulder seasons. It’s easy to rent a car, moped or ATV from one of Mykonos’ many rental companies, and bus services around the island are reasonably frequent.

The best 10 + 1 Virtual Tours in Greece (and beyond)

• Work With Me

Last Updated on January 26, 2023 by Celeste .

“I miss our travels,” said my daughter a few days ago. Exploring Greece and visiting museums or ancient monuments are not possible right now. Since the corona crisis has kept us home in our Athenian suburb, history and culture seem far away. That is why we started exploring virtual tours in Greece.  

Virtual Tours, exploring from home

If you cannot travel to your favorite place, virtual tours can fill the gap. They are also a great resource for planning your next trip. In Greece, several museums, archaeological sites, and other organizations have stepped up their online game, putting (kid-friendly) virtual tours right at our fingertips. Through these virtual tours, we get to explore Greece at any time that we want and without waiting lines or summer heat. Combine these advantages with the fact that kids love anything on an iPad or tablet, and you have a winning solution. Finally, a virtual tour is a great gift for anyone who loves travel but cannot get to the actual place right now!

My 10 favorite virtual tours in Greece

There are quite a few excellent online tours available. To make things easier for you, I have listed my 10 favorite virtual tours in Greece . Travel with kids from the comfort of your own living room, happy exploring!

1 Virtual Tour of the Acropolis in Athens

The Acropolis is the name of the hill on which ancient Athens was founded. When the first inhabitants left the top and moved to the foothills of the Acropolis, temples and sanctuaries were erected. The most famous of all is the  Parthenon temple , dedicated to  goddess Athena  – the patron goddess of Athens city. The Acropolis is the best-preserved monument of the ancient world in Greece and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Discover the most famous monument of Greece during a virtual tour of the Acropolis in Athens . Engaging audio commentary (in English) combined with satellite views will travel you to the most captivating ancient citadel, right from the comfort of your sofa.
