Getting Off The Beaten Path In Greece

Thessaloniki is a Perfect Place

Located on the Thermaic Gulf of the Aegean Sea, the awesome destination of Thessaloniki is a perfect place to do this. With a small population of just 300,000, it’s highly unlikely that many people you know will have travelled to this part of Greece. Enjoy time away from the crowds therefore by visiting the ancient squares, towers and fortresses of this old city. You can easily wander the streets for a few days, losing yourself in the history of it all and discovering a world few tourists learn about.

Catch a FERRY to an Island, Even if Planes an Option 
Okay, it’s most likely going to be a tiring, long and very claustrophobic journey on a ferry to the Greek Island of your choice, but it will be worth it! Boat journeys in Greece can be a key way to network and establish connections with other like-minded travellers and locals.

It’s also the old traditional way to journey in these parts and the unique perspective it brings will certainly feel different as well as genuine. Just make sure you hit the outside deck for some much-needed breathing time and have your camera ready to snap the amazing views when you approach land!

4 Islands
From our experience Naxos, Milos, Sifnos and Folegandros seem to tick the right boxes. Advice? There are 4 islands too much in 2 weeks knowing that first and last night might be in Athens? For a trip early July you need to book ferry tickets in advance so you can go directly to Rafina and buy the tickets there?

You could also try to avoid booking hotels in advance to get a feel of each place and adjust your trip based on your discoveries... if you can be very flexible. It is possible to get a nice place with a correct budget (100 euros/night - depends on season and local economy) once you arrive on the different islands? The tourism offices can help find a place?  Remember booking in advance is the only sure thing.
