Greece, the birthplace of European civilization, is a beautiful country, rich in ancient wonders and outstanding natural beauty.
Although it has the highest car accident rate throughout Europe, many tourists do not experience any problems when driving in Greece.
There is a strong network of main roads connecting all of the major cities along with smaller roads that allow you to truly explore Greece’s mountainous countryside.
Many of the roads outside of built up areas consist of three lanes, with the middle used for overtaking in both directions. When on smaller roads, slower drivers will sometimes be expected to move onto the shoulder to allow faster drivers to pass.
Athens is a good place to start your adventure. Being one of the oldest cities in the world, it is dotted with some of the world's most spectacular historic features.
It’s a good idea to park outside of the city, as navigating and parking throughout Athens can be difficult.
Heading southwest of Athens and you should find yourself in Piraeus, the cities main port and the third largest in the world!
From here you can get a ferry to one of Greece’s many islands. Alternatively you could drive down the sunning coast line to Cape Sounion.
For the more adventurous, a visit to Nafplion, on the Peloponnese Pennisula is sure to impress. Nafplion was once Greece’s capital, and will appeal to those in search of sun, sea and sand.
Nafplion will also appeal to those wishing to experience some more classic Greek culture. Here you will find The Palamidi Fortress, one of the countries grandest spots.
