So, it’s been a hectic couple of weeks in Barcelona, and I just got my internet installed. I’m gearing up for an incredible journey through Greece that begins in just a few days from now, and I want to share my plans with all of you. I will soon be swapping out my beloved tapas for scrumptious meze. It’s about time Davidsbeenhere travels to the birthplace of democracy!

If I had my way, I would cruise around the Greek isles for months on end without a care in the world. But as with all places Davidsbeenhere covers, travel guides and videos must be created, so without any further ado, here’s what I’ll be up to for the next month or so.

Athens (8 days)

First three days experiencing old town sights and schmoozing with the likes of the mayor of Athens. We will be participating in Travel Trade Athens – an event organized by the city of Athens tourism board and the European Tour Operators Association (ETOA)
Five extra days to explore more of Athens and for day trips to some of the surrounding areas
Hotels: O&B Boutique Hotel, St. George Boutique Hotel

Rhodes (7 days)

Exploring wineries, beaches and ancient sites, also celebrating Greek Easter with my wife’s cousins’ cousins. It will be a real treat to celebrate it with family… hope they have enough kokoretsi for me!
Day trip to Symi
Hotel: Kolymbia Bay Art

Kos (4 days)

Taking in the old town sights and archaeological treasures like the Asclepion
Hotel: Aqua Blu Hotel

Kalymnos (4 days)

Discovering the natural beauty of this little island that is known for its sponge divers and world famous rock climbing
Hotel: Kalydna Island Hotel

Santorini (5 days)

Really looking forward to this island’s iconic blue and white landscape and world renown sunsets.
Fira, Oia and wineries, oh my!
Hotel: Aqua Vista Hotel Villa

Thanks to the generosity of the Greek government, Davidsbeenhere will have unrestricted access to archaeological sites and monuments including Mycenae, Corinth, Nemea, the Epidauros, Sounion, Thebes and Delphi, all in order to create the highest quality footage and get the most up-to-date info for guides.
