Things to do on a Private Couples Holiday in Greece
History
Just like with Malta, no one can write a list of things to do in Greece, without mentioning the historical aspect. Greece was an intellectual hotspot back in the day. Epic philosophers like Plato and Socrates, and mathematicians like Pythagoras live in Greece in the 4th century before Christ.
This level of mental advancement needed a certain level infrastructure to sustain a relatively comfortable life. Today, we can still witness the ancient roads, amphitheatres, plazas, and other historical gems.
Trekking
If (like us) you’re not that much into history, and would rather be exploring – Greece has something for you too. You can choose to climb Mount Olympus. This is a must-do in you’re into Greek mythology. At 2,918m in altitude, Mount Olympus is the highest mountain in Greece and offers several trekking options. You can either get a simple taste of this majestic mountain on a 1-day trek, or you can go all out and spend 10 days to summit Mount Olympus and hiking in Zagoria.
You can also explore the Samaria Gorge which is a must-see for anyone who loves to spend quality time in nature. This huge gorge is 16 km long, and can take up to 7 hours to trek.
Or you can indulge in the mother of all Greek treks – the Corfu trail. This 220km trail will take you 8 to 10 days of epic trekking, along varying landscapes. Just make sure that your camera is fully charged so that you can capture the lovely memories of this happy trail.

Over the years, the Greek have developed their own unique cuisine. A fresh explosion of colourful tastes. Greek olives and olive oil & yoghurt are just some of the delicacies of this land.
