What people love about Greece Tours in December
- Vacations in Greece - 9 Days - Athens, Paros, Naxos, Santorini
My husband and I took this tour for our honeymoon, and it was absolutely wonderful. The itinerary was perfect—just the right mix of sightseeing, relaxing on beautiful beaches, and enjoying local culture. The hotels were cozy and comfortable, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Santorini’s sunsets were unforgettable. We loved every moment and highly recommend this tour for couples looking for a romantic and stress-free vacation in Greece.
- Best Experience of Greece - 10 Days
Smooth transition from point to point. Prompt response on queries. A good experience as we have a good mix of our own time to do our own thing and days with guide. What could be improved is the transfers to hotel becos we spend more than an hour just droping people off at their hotels. Not fun if you are the last hotel after a long day.
- Greece Discovery Tour
Absolutely loved and enjoyed the 10 day Greece Discovery Tour with Fez travels. I usually like to travel off season (13-22 Oct'18), preferably in small groups (we were lucky 5), partially guided tours, slow pace, and somebody is taking care of my accommodation/transport from airport to hotels and port. All I wished for successfully granted by Fez travels. To start with, the pick up and drop off were all on time, I didn't have to worry at all. The drivers were very nice, helping out with your luggage and making sure you are comfortable. The hotels were 4+ star and to some extent very fancy ,breakfast included all days, dinners on some. On arrival, we sat down with our tour co-ordinator, she gave us our packets and all the useful information about Athens. The start of the days were by 9 am(perfect) except the day of ferry (leaves at 7.30 am from Athens to Santorini, takes 8 hrs). First day in Athens , we were done touring the highlights of the city and ending in Acropolis by 1.30 pm. This gave me ample time to explore the city on my own. The only museum covered with the tour guide was The Acropolis museum, rest you have to do on your own(which I prefer). Getting a metro card in Athens is super easy and trains are so fast. The next 2-3 days were with the guide, pretty much most of the time. The road trip included from Athens >Corinth canal >Epidaurus >Nafplion >Mycenae > Olympia > Nafpaktos >Delphi > Athens. Stopped at all these places to see highlights and archaeological sites. The guide was very knowledgeable and you don't feel rushed through the sites. They do a good job, make sure you give the guide and the driver a decent tip. Next I was off to Santorini by myself (tour ended for the other 4 in Athens).The ferry tickets were include in the package. There was no guide in Santorini. But the guy who picked me up from Santorini port, sat down with me , went over all the details, things to do, the island/boat tours, local buses, taxi info and important numbers to call if I needed anything. Trust me you don't need a guide in Santorini, its such a beautiful island, you would want to take it on your own pace. The best way to get around are local buses(on time). Back to Athens (Ferry from Santorini to Athens was 3.30 pm), hence arrived very late. I just stayed in the hotel for 4 hours cz the pick up for airport was 3 am(flight at 6 am). I wish I had my flight in late afternoon or evening the next day (I would have got more time to walk around in Athens or I guess I didn't want to leave ;)). Thank you Fez travels for making my Greece trip such a memorable one.

The Temple of Apollo and Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus are particularly pleasant to visit in mild winter temperatures.

Where is the best place to stay in Athens during December?
The heart of Athens offers several well-positioned hotels for winter visits. The Athenaeum Grand Hotel and Athens Gate Hotel provide heated rooms and convenient access to major sites. The Acropolis Museum Boutique Hotel near the historic Plaka district serves as another practical choice.

How crowded are popular tourist sites in Greece during December?
December transforms Greece's most visited locations into peaceful venues for exploration. The Acropolis Delphi and Meteora monasteries welcome just a fraction of their summer visitors.

What Greek islands are best to visit in December?
Santorini and Naxos maintain their accessibility through winter months. Santorini offers clear winter vistas and uncrowded streets while hotels like Hotel Fresh continue operations with heated rooms. Ferry services run on reduced but regular schedules. As noted by a TourRadar traveler: "Visiting Santorini in December meant peaceful exploration of the caldera views without fighting through crowds."
What are the prices like for traveling to Greece in December?
December travelers benefit from off-season rates on accommodations and flights except during Christmas week. Hotels such as the Aegean Plaza in Santorini adjust their prices downward for winter guests. TourRadar travelers report savings of 20-30% on hotels and tours compared to peak summer rates.
