Most Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time to go to Greece?

The best time to travel to Greece is during the shoulder seasons, late spring (May-June) and early fall (September-October), as you’ll experience pleasant weather, smaller crowds, and still have access to most activities while avoiding the peak summer heat and tourist influx. 

Will I be able to get around? What’s the language spoken?

No need for a language course—English is widely spoken in Greece. It’s a mandatory second language in schools, and you’ll find it commonly used, especially in tourist areas and the service industry.

Do I need to exchange my money once I arrive?

Greece’s currency is the euro (€).  While some vendors accept U.S. dollars, you will get a low exchange rate so it is better to pay with Euros when paying by cash.  Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted in Greece (while American Express and Diners club are often not accepted). Small businesses and artists still might prefer or only accept Euro cash payments.  The best way to get euros in Greece is via an ATM or to exchange American dollars for euros before arriving.
