I’ve always been partial to a Greek beach getaway and after years of exploring almost all of the country’s many, many sunny hubs I’ve become somewhat of an expert, too. I’ve seen everything from the white stone houses of Santorini to the (in my opinion, overhyped) beaches of Mykonos, but this summer, some of my …

Fall is fast approaching in Europe, but if you’re not ready to embrace the foliage-clad landscape and bid farewell to the balminess just yet, you may be wondering which destinations will remain summer-warm heading into the cooler months. Fortunately, not all of Europe will be getting the sweaters out and swapping Aperol Spritz for hot …

Summers in Europe can be the stuff of dreams, what with the turquoise Mediterranean coastlines, pastel-colored towns dating back centuries (if not thousands of years), and that laid-back lifestyle you couldn’t easily find elsewhere. On the other hand, it can get unbearably hot. You don’t want to be out and about exploring a stone-built city …

Home to paradisiacal Mediterranean beaches and ancient cities with origins lost to time––some of the oldest known to mankind––Greece has been one of the most popular destinations for Americans this year, and this is likely to be the case still going into the fall. Be that as it may, if Athens’ surging crowds (and prices) …

This summer has been a hot, sweaty, crowded one for Greece.

Greece is a bucket list item for millions of travelers going to Europe this summer, but between the mass tourism and surging hotel prices, it might not be the idyllic getaway they’re hoping for: Santorini is now one of the busiest, priciest islands in the continent––good luck trying to find accommodation for under $448 a …

The country of over 6,000 islands, surrounded by the teal-colored waters of the Aegean Sea and boasting a rich ancient heritage, Greece is one of the hottest destinations to visit this year, both literally and figuratively, with one (huge) caveat: Santorini, Mykonos and the like are all succumbing to mass tourism, and between the surging …

The world’s leading destination for soaking up ancient culture and basking in the sun at the same time, the Mediterranean has a number of ‘subdivisions’: For instance, you have the Tyrrhenian off the western coast of Italy, the Adriatic lapping a rugged Croatia, and the Alborean Sea lining Spain ––all tried-and-true vacation hotspots, these certainly …

Ever traveled somewhere that completely missed the mark? Maybe Instagram filters tricked you into thinking Texas has picture-perfect waters or perhaps you didn’t get the memo on a jellyfish invasion. Lots can go wrong no matter what type of trip you book, but when it comes to splurging on a nice beach getaway, you should …

After 10 years of traveling to some of Greece’s dreamiest beaches, I can wholeheartedly say that I’ve fallen in love with the country, its second-to-none coastline, and mindblowing hospitality. And until this year, I thought I’d seen it all – from the royal blue waters of Zakynthos and the white stone houses of Santorini to …

With Greece expecting a record number of tourists this season, these are some of the best beach destinations where you can escape the crowds during the summer. We’ve all seen photos of dreamy Greek islands like Mykonos and Santorini filling our social media feeds, but you don’t always see the full truth behind these pictures. …

We all know that when it comes to a European summer getaway, Greece is the ultimate destination – the sun-kissed beaches of Mykonos, Crete, and Santorini have officially taken over our social media feeds.
