(some older people usually don\u2019t speak though)<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #00ccff; font-size: 14pt;\">TRANSPORTATION: <\/span><\/strong>Compared to previous years public transport has improved, however it is still not so punctual like other countries. And unfortunately sometimes buses are too crowded. I would highly recommend to <strong>rent a car, unless you intend to stay in the city centre of Athens that metro is very convenient to stroll around.<\/strong> You will be able to explore easily and quicker. You just need to have a valid international driving license (and ask for the age limit).<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #00ccff; font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>GREEK ISLANDS:<\/strong><\/span> All of the islands are absolutely AMAZING. So you need to <strong>book before summer<\/strong> in order to find the hotel you like, since some of them are getting fully booked way in advance. Ferry tickets can be usually found even last minute if not high season. And remember, the earlier the cheaper! There are some islands fyi that are getting bookings several months in advance like Mykonos, Santorini, Paros, Ios, Rhodes, Kos, Skiathos, Corfu, Zante, Kefallonia, Crete that are more famous and more crowded with tourists. While others are less popular but wonderful as well, and are preferred more by locals like Chios, Samos, Limnos, Ikaria, Alonissos, Folegandros, Serifos, Amorgos, Kalymnos, Kythira&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>You can book your ferry tickets (and support my site too with same price!) for the island here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ferryscanner.com\/en\/ferry\/?ref=ytmwndd&amp;utm_source=angelikiantoniadi&amp;utm_campaign=Ferryscanner+affiliate+program+EN\">Ferryscanner.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">DRIVER SIDE:<\/span><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0left<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #00ccff;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #00ccff;\"><strong>DRIVING:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #333333; font-size: 16px;\">especially in the islands and in the center of Athens drivers are a bit aggressive so be careful!

Greek sewage pipes can easily get clogged if toilet paper is flushed &amp; they cannot support so big quantity of flushed paper.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #00ccff; font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>OPENING HOURS:<\/strong> <\/span>Sunday most of the shops are closed apart from specific days of the year. Supermarkets and shopping malls: daily from 9am till 21:00 pm and Saturday till 20:00 pm. In Athens, some local shops and smaller stores are open from\u00a0 9:00 AM-14:30 PM &amp; 17:30-21:00 PM on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays while on Mondays &amp; Wednesdays opening times are from 9:00 AM till 15:00 PM. Despite that, all the time you may find some small kiosks 24\/7. During Summer season in the islands the times may be different though.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #00ccff;\"><strong>PERSONAL BELONGINGS:<\/strong><\/span> Be careful of your things in public transport, on the road or anywhere it is too crowded. You should always keep your belongings in sight and have your purse close, avoid putting your wallet\/ phone in your back pocket. At the hotel, lock items of high value. I cannot say that Greece is the safest country in the world in that manner&#8230;.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_422\" style=\"width: 509px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-422\" class=\"wp-image-422\" src=\"http:\/\/explorewithangel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/thumbnail_IMG_0652.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"499\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/explorewithangel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/thumbnail_IMG_0652.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/explorewithangel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/thumbnail_IMG_0652-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/explorewithangel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/thumbnail_IMG_0652-800x1067.jpeg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 499px) 100vw, 499px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-422\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Endless BLUE<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Feel free to add something to above article, to comment and ask me anything you may need! &lt;3<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff00ff; font-size: 18pt;\"><strong>* Check my posts on Instagram and &#8220;Athens&#8221; highlight for more *<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>IG : explorewith.angel<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to GREECE!
