Which cities are the most beautiful in Greece?

The truth is that this country is quite unknown, despite the fact that we are connected by the same sea. We tell you which urban centers you can't miss


Athens

The most famous, and the one with the most history. The capital of Greece is, without a doubt, a vital center of European culture. The cradle of democracy and philosophy, you will be able to visit some of the most impressive ruins in the world. For example, those of the Acropolis.

Beyond its mythical character, Athens is acity full of monuments and lively and vibrant neighborhoods. Lose yourself in its streets and see genuine Greek life in a city with a touch of decaying beauty, like Porto.

To do so, you just have to rent your vehicle at the Athens airport.


Thessaloniki, one of Greece's most famous beautiful cities

This city is a tourist spot, it's true, and the perfect place to go if you want to sightsee and sunbathe in the Mediterranean. However, it is also one of the spots in the country with the most ancient ruins and monuments. For example, the Ottoman White Tower, a perfect witness to the rich history of Greece.

It is also very lively in summer, and you can find family or young ambients, depending on what you are looking for. In short rent your car in Thessaloniki , an ideal place for touring by car.


Kalambaka

Do you want to get away from the hustle and bustle and go to a place full of magic? This sparsely populated city was built between the mountains that surround it. The monastery of Meteora, one of the wonders hidden in Greece, is nearby.

Life is quiet here, there are traditional eateries and, above all, unique sunsets. The best idea is to go up to one of the highest points surrounding the city and watch the sun go down from there. It will be a moment you will never forget.


Chania

If you go to Crete, don't miss this incredible medieval port that is directly linked to Venetian architecture. It is a wonder that you would not expect to find, surrounded, in addition, by an endless number of beaches. It is an ideal place for sightseeing and sunbathing.

Besides, the whole island of Crete is a marvel full of unique spaces and places. Our advice is not to miss it. One good idea for a visit  is Chania and the beautiful nearby villages.

Rent your car in Chania to tour it in comfort.
