It's considered polite to greet people with a 'kalimera' (good morning/day) or 'kalispera' (good evening). Be mindful of noise levels, especially in residential areas, and avoid loud conversations late at night. Tipping is customary in restaurants (around 10%).

The Peloponnese peninsula offers ancient sites like Olympia and Mycenae, along with beautiful coastal towns.
  • What are the best areas to spend a weekend in Greece?

    For a short break, Athens is ideal, offering historical sites, museums, and vibrant nightlife.

    The islands of the Dodecanese (Rhodes, Kos, etc.) and the Cyclades (Mykonos, Santorini, etc.) are known for their warm, sunny weather, especially during the summer months.
