Greek Travel Links:

    For links about Greek culture (archaeology, history, etc.), be sure to visit my appropriately titled Greek Culture Links .
    (Sites with * after their grade are not located in the United States; ! is for sites with links back to my guide.)



The Major Greek Tourism Sites (Try Each of These) Travel Guides (these sites have actual content) Indices with Greek Travel info (All You Could Possibly Want to Find on Greece) Official Governmental Sites Specific-Site Pages Travelogues and Backpacking Sites Personal travelogues and sites General Greek Sites Travel Magazines Non-Greek, General Travel Sites Commercial Sites
Eyewitness Travel Guides: For your money, these are the nicest looking travel guides out there.  Although they are light on hard facts, the photos and illustrations are terrific.
Greek Books at Databay : Let's you look at reviews and covers of books on Greece.
Dale Rossi, Photo-History (Stereoviews of Greece) : Ever see those old goggle-like glasses that you put pictures in and saw them in 3-D? Well you can buy some old ones of Greece here (course, you better have a viewer first).
A Geological Companion to Greece and the Agean : A site where you can order this book. It has some examples of the text and images here though.
Villa Horizonte : Uh-oh. Am I getting myself into trouble giving links to accomodations? Well, this one looks like it may be a little different from your run-of-the-mill stuff. Designed a little more for the intellectual retreat and near Volos. Judge for yourself.

Kind words about this site:

European Visits: A Newsletter of European Travel : "This is the opening page for an extensive first-person account of the author's Greek visit. Sections include Preparing, Attica, Peloponnese, Northern Greece, and Islands; there is a page of Greek Travel Links as well. Throughout the well-written text, links are included that let you jump elsewhere on the Web to find out more about particular attractions & topics. Overall, Dave has put together one of the best "What I did on my summer vacation" sites we've seen."

GoGreece : "An excellent reference for someone planning a backpacking trip to Greece." March 2, 1997

Travelmag : "Dave Webb's backpacking travelogue in Greece is an honest account of what it's like with plenty of advice how, where and why."

Personal:

iguana@aol.com : "Wow, I was thinking about traveling to Greece in the next couple of years, but after reading this I wanna go right now dammit! I mean, the isles, historical sites, and the culture all sound amazing."
