Direct flights to Greece from the UK vary from 3 and a half to 4 hours, depending on your destination. Charter, scheduled and low-cost airlines offer direct flights so it's worth shopping around. With flights from a number of regional airports in the UK, it's also easy to book a Jet2 holiday to Greece from a number of regional airports in the UK.
You can also explore the Greek Islands by boat, either by ferry, driving yourself around or why not enjoy a cruise that takes you into the ports and offers various excursions for passengers.
Once on land, getting around the mainland or islands is easiest done by car, although if it's a beach holiday you are after, shuttle coaches can be organised in advance to take you between the island's airport and your hotel.
If you love sunshine, Greece is for you, and it's such a versatile country that it's great for all types of holidaymakers.
All inclusive holidays are a fantastic way to ensure you don't spend any more of your budget than you need to, especially for families. With top resorts offering a range of entertainment and facilities, as well as buffet restaurants catering to families and kids, you've got plenty to choose from.
Having that little bit of flexibility can make all the difference on holiday, allowing you to take advantage of the buffet meals and still giving you the option to head out and explore the restaurants.
Plenty of Greece's hotels offer a B&B board basis.
There is plenty of cheap accommodation ranging from Airbnb apartments to self catering villas. Going self catering in Greece gives you the opportunity to try all the fantastic tavernas.
With so much choice, last minute holidays to Greece are a great way to save money and get away to enjoy the sunshine. Flights from across the UK with Ryanair, Jet2 and easyJet make it so easy to grab a late deal to the stunning Greek Islands.
One of the most fabulous ways to experience life in Greece is on a Greek villa holiday. There really is nothing quite like enjoying your own place and space, dipping your toes into your own private pool, and hiring a car to discover the islands in your own way.
The typical holiday season for Greece runs from April through to October, when you'll find most hotels open for business. The summer months of July and August are busiest, particularly with families on school holidays. This is also the hottest time of year when temperatures reach 30C and there's around 12 hours of sunshine a day.
While the winter months are cooler, they are still warmer than the UK and most of the Greek Islands enjoy an average of 5 hours of sunshine a day.
For a sunny destination, there really is something for everyone and each area of Greece has it's own little quirks.
For a short city break or if you're in need of some culture, Athens makes for a fantastic cheap weekend break, offering sunshine, history and plenty of activities. If it's a relaxing beach holiday, then there's plenty to choose from. From the steep hills and stunning views on Santorini, to the gorgeous beaches of Zante, be sure to pick your beach holiday destination wisely. If on the other hand you are here to party, Mykonos has become the self-proclaimed party island in Greece, with a vibrant atmosphere, ideal for a clubbing beach holiday with your mates.
From budget 2-star apartments to luxury 5-star hotels, the range of accommodation in Greece is more than enough. It's worth taking into consideration why you are visiting Greece before you pick the island you want to stay at and book a holiday or hotel.
Athens is great for a city break, while Mykonos is more of a party island, or if you're after something much more chilled and quiet, the island of Santorini is probably the ideal holiday location for you.
Although nothing is confirmed, Greece hopes to welcome tourists for Summer, who have been vaccinated against Covid-19 and have tested negative to coronavirus prior to travel. Please check the latest travel advice and restrictions with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office before booking at this could change at any time.
Crete is often seen as one of the cheapest Greek islands for a holiday, with lots of self catering accommodation options, however all islands can be budget-friendly. Other islands to take a look at are Corfu and Rhodes.
