Greece is amazing. The hospitality, weather, and food are one the best in Europe.

I agree that Greece has so much to offer. And with all those islands you can keep returning again and again and always explore somewhere new. 😁

Nice one guys, we have a 5 day stopover in Athens in January. Greece in winter will be a new experience.
@FrugalTravellersАй бұрын
@@cindybruin4888 Oh wow, that's so cool, Cindy. I'm sure it will be chilly, but not too cold. As long as the rain stays away it'll be more pleasant for sightseeing than in the summer. I hope you have an awesome time 🤗❤️🇬🇷

Arriving on a holiday is a pain! France is Closed on Sunday 😂 But I went to Gdansk @ Easter & the local trains were still every 15 minutes on Easter Sunday! It was mad! 😂 Take care & stay safe x ❤️🙏🇬🇧
@FrugalTravellersАй бұрын
@@steves7013 Hopefully we've learnt our lesson from this! I'm going to be a bit more thorough in checking public holiday dates before we book flights ✈️😂. In 2007 we spent 3 months cycling from Marseille to Le Havre, and soon learnt about those French opening hours, with all restaurants closing at 2pm sharp 🤣 I'm not surprised that Poland still runs... that country is amazing 😍

For 2 people 30 euros a room like in Athen is really cheap! Wow!
@FrugalTravellersАй бұрын
@@cryptolatino9220 Yes, we were so fortunate to find it, and would definitely go back. I wish I'd videoed inside the nearby supermarket but we were just too tired and hungry! We were lucky it was open, and it's taught us a valuable lesson about checking for public holidays or special events before we go anywhere 🤗😁
