Ideal Season

Steer away from the tourist path
Even though Greece is one of the most beloved destinations of Europe and the world, most visitors still cling to the top well-trodden tourist paths, often ignoring the rest of the immense cultural and natural wealth that the country has to offer. Indie Horizons’ “Around Greece in 52 Weeks” programme is designed to offer just that, balancing exploration and relaxation, enabling travellers to admire every corner of Greece to the fullest.
- Self-guided itineraries allow travellers to explore at their own pace and leisure.
- Enjoy a diverse range of activities, including ancient ruins, medieval castles, local folklore, unique gastronomy, thermal springs, hiking and swimming.
- Immerse into the actual reality of each destination, well beyond the tourist showcase facade.
