Greece Travel Guide - Travel Insights and Tips

In line with Bookmundi's vision, we wish to provide our travelers with a sustainable travel experience through Greece. As part of this effort, we carbon offset any Greece tour that you purchase through us. You can read more details about our carbon offsetting program.

Here is what you can do to travel through Greece responsibly:

• Carbon-offset your travel to Greece via Singapore Airlines. The moment your tour starts in Greece, and if you have purchased your tour through Bookmundi, we will carbon-offset your tour from its starting point to its ending point. 
•  You can donate a small amount to the Hellenic Society for the Protection of Nature, an NGO that’s committed to the conservation of the natural environment in Greece. 
• Walk or cycle whenever you can in Greece. And if you cannot, choose public transport over private taxis to limit your carbon footprint. 
• Support small museums and art galleries when you visit Greece. The locally run exhibitions and galleries provide a unique insight into the Greek art scene and promote environmental sustainability. 

• Rather than sticking to one island on your trip, opt for a multi-island adventure and include the lesser-known islands. 
• Quad bikes are a great way to get around on the Greek islands. 
• Greece’s rich cuisine is more than enough reason to visit. Like virtually every other place, look for where the locals eat to get the best culinary experience. Also, be open to variety. 
•  Greece is a cash-heavy country. Many service providers in lesser-known islands may not accept credit cards. So, always have some cash in your person.
• Estimates show that about 50 percent of Greeks smoke. Thus, do not be surprised to see a lot of people smoking. Though smoking in restaurants and indoor public spaces has been banned, the level of enforcement differs from establishment to establishment.
