Greece has been a favorite vacation spot for centuries. From ancient sites in Athens to sun drenched Greek islands Santorini, Crete, Corfu, and Rhodes, Greece is on the short list of quintessential Mediterranean vacations. Ancient Greeks put the arch in architecture, gave us the Socratic Method, the Olympics, and the foundations of western drama, but today visitors flock to Greece as much for the nightlife in Mykonos and Ios as they do for the Acropolis, Parthenon, and Mount Olympus.
