Greece Travel Agent Specialist

Greece is a great country to represent as a travel agent specialist, as it is the birthplace of philosophy, astronomy, democracy, and mathematics. Ancient Greeks came up with these ideas in places, such as the Acropolis, thousands of years ago. When you travel to Greece then, it is like taking a trip back thousands of years, exploring ancient ruins and seeing the artefact's on display in galleries and museums. For many people who travel to Greece, the trip represents a journey to the origins of western culture. Athens has a long history, established in the 5th century. Today, almost 4 million people call the city home. While there is urban sprawl, the city has made an effort to pedestrianize the metropolis. Needless to say, you can't go to Greece without seeing Athens, as it serves as the starting point for a wonderful Greek vacation. One of the great places to visit away from the hub, is Peloponnese, the Greek peninsula, and the islands of Santorini and Mykonos.  I often book honeymoons and couple vacations to Santornini, as it fits better with these types of holidays. Mykonos has lovely golden sand beaches while Santorini features red or black volcanic rocks and pebbles. Greece is also the home of Greek mythology, so I cannot plan a trip without suggesting a visit to Mount Olympus - probably one of the most famous mountains worldwide. To climb the illustrious peak, you will need to travel to LItochoro where you can hike a portion of the way or completely to the top, depending on your fitness level. While climbing Mount Olympus, you'll, no doubt, think about the stories associated with the slope, which is also the mythological site of the throne of Zeus and the spot where Hades controlled the underworld.Another adventure-packed day can be experienced in Greece as well at Lake Plastira. Although the body of water is man made, it does not make it any less magnificent. Centered among chestnuts and oaks, the lake invites visitors to canoe, raft, hike the trails, or go horseback riding. The lake is located in the Larditsa region of the country.If you have dreamed of visiting Greece, I can, as your travel agent advisor, help you plan a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
