Stay in Athens and explore a city inhabited since 7000 BC
The oldest known human presence in Athens has been dated to between the 11th and 7th millennium B.C. Today Athens is a sprawling metropolis, a modern capital that stands as the cradle of democracy and the template of western civilization, a city of contrasts — old and new, noisy and serene, with the Acropolis overlooking the landscape. Always amazing, entertaining, filled with delicate and fragile beauty. It deserves as much time as you can give it.
When is the right time to go on holiday to Greece?
In Greece things start to hot up around Easter time, with temperatures hovering in the low 20s. By July and August things are in full swing, with around 12 hours of sunshine a day and temperatures that hit 30°C and higher. September and October are better if you like things a little less scorching, with temperatures in the mid-20s, so things are a bit more comfortable. As for rainfall, Greece usually sees its wettest weather during the winter months, so during the summer showers are few and far between.
