Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to drink water in Greece?

Although it is perfectly safe to drink water from the tap in Athens and Thessaloniki, it is better to ask in all the other places or even better buy bottled water which is fairly cheap. Generally, in most of the Greek Islands like Mykonos and Santorini, you can not drink water from the tap.

Are there mosquitoes in Greece?

Serious mosquito-borne illness is rare in Greece, but take some insect repellant for your comfort. There are scorpions throughout Greece, including Athens. The greatest danger is from accidentally turning over a rock and stepping on one, but they also come inside buildings.

How much should I bring to Greece?

Budget travellers should plan on $50 a day, while mid-range to luxury travellers can expect to pay between $150 to $350 a day, or higher if you plan to visit more than one of its 200 islands.
