    • Tennis courts in Santorini

      Greece May 19, 2013 at 4:03 AM

      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?

      Regards,
      Rahul

    • 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 : )

    • 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

      Hi There, I am getting married in Skiathos in August and have been thinking about hiring a boat (for about 30 guest) for after our ceremony at the Bourtzi. We were hoping to have some music and drinks and snacks onboard and just take a short tour around. Do you know of any websites that I could look at or names that I can use of potential boats for this purpose? I was also hoping to get a rough cost before we go so that we can budget...I guess this might not be possible. Cheers for any help.

    • Athens to Skiathos?

      by loopyloooo Online Now Jan 2, 2006 at 9:06 PM

      Hello! I'm planning to visit Athens in May (for Eurovision, yippee!) and I'd like to pop over to Skiathos for a couple of days to see a friend who's gonna be working there. I was in Skiathos last year and was thinking about going on a trip to the mainland but I was ill and didn't even find out how much it would cost in the end! Has anyone done the trip? I think the most fun way would be to get a bus up north and then a ferry across. Getting a flight seems like a bit of a cop out and I imagine would be more expensive too. Anyone wants to meet up in Athens let me know!
