Greece city breaks - The extraordinary city of Athens
Greece weekend breaks focus almost entirely on Athens, the country’s amazing, unforgettable capital: a vibrant, friendly city with wonderful sunny weather, plenty of personality and lots to see and do. Greece short breaks offer the chance to discover one of the world’s great historical city break destinations. Only Rome can rival Athens in terms of breathtaking monuments and ancient history. Greece city breaks are an obvious delight for archaeology and classical history aficionados, but nobody can fail to be stirred by the city’s most famous sights: the Acropolis, the mighty Parthenon, Ancient Agora, the Dionysus Theatre and the amazing Archaeological Museum. Even the shortest of city breaks in Greece is long enough to feel completely immersed in the charm of Athens’ atmospheric, romantic Plaka neighbourhood, to sample its charming tavernas, and experience the splendours of its historical heritage.
