    To anyone wondering. When choosing a Greek Island it's pretty simple. Its a choice between the beautiful lush green Ionian Islands or you can go to the sand boxes in the Aegean

    Mid - September is also amazing to come to Greece. Not too much heat like in August and not too crowded. If you don't like lots of tourists around. If you like partying late July and August is the best

Oh and BTW, I was married to a Greek for many years and the correct pronunciation of Gyro is ( and I will type it the way it sounds ) Yeero, the G is like a Y sound...LOL !!! Happy travels !!!

    Greece has many beautiful islands. And to be honest from all of them, Mykonos is my least favourite. Santorini is amazing beautiful and way better than Mykonos. I suggest you to visit Rhodes if you want beautiful beaches and many historical sights, Crete is a really beautiful place as well, Corfu is a good option as well, and from islands who are close to Athens Poros, Ydra and Spetses are really beautiful. Especially poros which is a small island but with mostly local tourists. Its way more calm there and it has beautiful beaches.

    • @MahnaGhafori

    • @MahnaGhafori
      @MahnaGhafori  Рік тому

      I feel that lol. I didn't really get to experience that, but I would say Milos was the most chill vibe in comparison of al the ones I experienced. There are soooo so many though I'd definitely search if you are looking for a quiet island you should be able to easily find a perfect match. Happy travels!

      I book a lot of my travel using points so I typically steer away from talking budget on trips as I know it's dependent on a lot of factors! My guides focus on adventures and things to do on the travels :) I know there are a lot of other super helpful budget travel pages out there! I hope this information was helpful!
