In order to assist you to plan your stay, we have planned this 4-5 day Greece itinerary for you to get the best experience in a limited time. 

Day 1: Athens


If you’re seeking a 4-5 days itinerary to spend your holiday in Greece, you have to invest at least 1 day in Athens, the most beautiful and the capital.  It is located in the center of Greece; it’s really easy to explore the capital city on foot. You should begin your trip by visiting the Acropolis Museum. 
Visit the top floor terrace to enjoy the perfect view of the Parthenon. The museums are open all most every day. 


We suggest you don't waste your time and go for an online ticket. Acropolis is the best-preserved monument of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here the Parthenon is dedicated to the goddess Athena. After visiting the Acropolis, have lunch at Liondi Traditional Greek Restaurant, which serves typical Greek cuisine and then head to Plaka, one of Athens’ oldest neighborhoods to get the picturesque beauty and the best place to buy some souvenir for your loved ones.
