Frequently Asked Questions about hostels in Greece

  • What are the most affordable attractions for backpackers to visit?

    Backpackers can find plenty of budget-friendly options. Exploring ancient ruins like the Acropolis in Athens (though entry fees apply) is a must, but walking around the Plaka district afterwards is free. Many islands offer free activities like hiking scenic trails, swimming at beautiful beaches (like those on Naxos or Milos), and exploring charming villages. Ferries between islands can be surprisingly affordable if booked in advance. Free walking tours in cities like Thessaloniki and Athens are also a great way to learn about the history and culture without spending any money.
  • What are the best hostels in Greece?

    Among the hostels in Greece, Meteora Central Hostel, Caveland and Crossroads are the most popular ones.

    Athens International Airport (ATH) is the main hub, handling the most international flights. However, other significant airports include Thessaloniki International Airport (SKG) in northern Greece and Heraklion International Airport (HER) on Crete. Many smaller regional airports cater to specific islands, but these three handle the majority of air traffic.
  • What are the best hostels with a pool in Greece?

  • How easy is it to navigate the roads in Greece?

    Driving in Greece can be challenging, especially on smaller islands or in mountainous areas. The roads can be narrow and winding, and signage isn't always the clearest. Renting a car is a good option for exploring the countryside but requires confidence and a willingness to navigate less-than-perfect roads. Public transportation, including buses and ferries, is a reliable and often more relaxing alternative.
  • What are the best hostels for families and kids in Greece?

    The best hostels for families and kids in Greece are Caveland, City Circus Athens and Stay Rhodes Hostel & Bar.

  • How can travelers best respect local customs while in Greece?

    Showing respect for Greek culture involves dressing modestly when visiting churches or monasteries. Learning a few basic Greek phrases is appreciated. It's polite to greet people with a 'kalimera' (good morning/day) or 'kalispera' (good evening). Be mindful of noise levels, particularly during siesta time in smaller towns. Tipping in restaurants is customary, usually around 10%.
  • What are the best pet friendly hostels in Greece?

    The best pet friendly hostels in Greece are The Holy Rock - Hostel At Meteora, Stay Rhodes Hostel & Bar and So Young Hostel.

  • Which traditional festivals define the spirit of Greece?

    Greece has many vibrant festivals. The most widely celebrated is probably Easter (Pascha), a deeply religious event with unique traditions varying by region. Other significant festivals include the Panathenaic Games in Athens (a historical recreation), and various local village feasts (panigiria) honoring patron saints, often involving food, music, and dancing. These local panigiria are a great way to experience authentic Greek culture.
  • What are the best hostels with parking in Greece?

    Meteora Central Hostel, Caveland and Crossroads are the best hostels with parking in Greece.

  • What are the key emergency contacts for medical or safety concerns in Greece?

    For medical emergencies, dial 166. For police, dial 100. For fire emergencies, dial 199. It's advisable to have the number for your country's embassy or consulate readily available as well.
  • What are the best areas to spend a week in Greece?

    A week allows for exploring multiple regions. The islands of Crete (with diverse landscapes and historical sites like Knossos) or the Cyclades (Santorini, Mykonos, Naxos – each offering a unique vibe) are popular choices. Alternatively, exploring mainland Greece, combining Athens with a trip to Delphi and Meteora (with its stunning monasteries), offers a rich blend of history and natural beauty. The Peloponnese peninsula also offers a varied landscape, combining beaches with ancient sites like Olympia.
  • What are the best areas to spend a weekend in Greece?

    For a weekend getaway, Athens is an excellent choice, offering historical sites like the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum, vibrant nightlife, and delicious food. Alternatively, a shorter island escape to Mykonos or Santorini, focusing on relaxation and enjoying the beaches and views, is also a popular option. Nafplio, a charming town on the Peloponnese peninsula, offers a blend of history and coastal beauty.
  • Are there specific regions in Greece known for great weather?

    The islands of the Cyclades and Dodecanese are known for their sunny weather, particularly during the summer months. Crete also enjoys a long period of sunshine. However, weather patterns can vary throughout the year, so always check the forecast before traveling.
