      Hi all,
      I just wanted to know if there are any tennis courts in Santorini that are independent i.e. not attached to any hotel and open to public. We are staying in Fira for a week. If there are any, do they provide racquets to adults and kids?

    • Crete for 3 weeks...but where?!

      Greece May 7, 2013 at 12:16 PM

      My wife and I are fortunate enough to have 3 weeks to spend in Crete this coming summer; woot!

      Our main interests are; 1) Seeing historical sites; 2) Enjoying charming towns and good tavernas; and 3) Seeing the ocean.

      That said, we are at a quandary regarding where to stay. We do NOT want to move around every few days, so have come up with a few options:
      1) Spend 1 week in Sitia, seeing the eastern part of the island; Spend 1 week in Rethymno; Spend 1 week in Chania....and of course, a couple nights Iraklion to fly in and out and see Knossos.

      2) Spend 1.5 weeks in Rethymno; and 1.5 weeks in Chania

      3) Spend 1.5 weeks in Chania OR Rethymno; spend 1.5 weeks somewhere in the south.
      So.... what does everybody think?

      In advance, many thanks : )

      Hi, I'll be in Santorini for 3 days (early July) with a couple of friends and we're looking for a cheap/decent place to stay if possible. We found out that there's a lot of accommodations in Fira, Imerovigli and Perissa.

      However, we'll still unsure of which area would be the best in terms of prices and its accessibility to other areas in santorini. Basically, our itinerary for the 3 days would be to explore around as much and also to relax and enjoy the sceneries. Hope to get some insights. =)

    • Greek Islands

      Greece May 4, 2013 at 7:42 PM

      Hello all,
      I would like to know how to visit some of the of Greek islands for example Santoroni, Mekonos, Naxos may be Rhodes from Ahtens? how many days we need to travel , I feel one day may not be enough. Please advice me.
      I am also thinking in this way, please let me know if this is good. Since we are coming to Istanabul first and planning to fly to Athens after few days in Istanabul, may be we should drive down to Izmir take a ferry from there to these islands and finally reach Athens instead of flying. What do you guys suggest about that route? If we do this way which port we should start on Turkey side? and how many days we need to reach Athens from there. We dont want to spend more time in each island, we just want to have a feel of that place. We are planning to go there later again in few years. I would appreciate as much as information you can give to help me plan my trip, thanks in advance

      My boyfriend and I are planning to visit Santorini, Naxos, Mykonos and Kefalonia in mid-Jun 2010. However, it seems that we can only get to Kefalonia by flight/bus in Athens. The point is we are not really interested in Athens. Can anyone suggest the transportation to travel through those islands? We haven't booked the flight yet, as we are flying from UK, we could arrive at/depart from either Santorini, Mykonos or Kefalonia, doesn't have to be the same place for departure and arrival.

      Hi all, Could you please help me. I am looking to go away to either Lefkada and Kefalonia for around 5 days in around June or July time this year. I would be ideally looking to just go there and relax on nice white sand, blue sea beaches and lazy about and do nothing. Also I am looking for a hotel (not bothered about *rating as long as there is AC) hopefully close to the beach and also to the town. And looking to be staying in an area that is not as lively with tourists like Corfu is, but still has a nice atmosphere that we can go to a few bars and restaurants on a evening. So could you please tell me which of these 2 places are the best for this and which areas within that place are best? Also any hotel recommendations and any other information you could give would be much appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance. Robbie
