Greece is easily one of our favourite destinations for romance. Think sunset strolls by the sea, dinner at intimate local tavernas and lazy afternoons exploring charming villages or undiscovered islands. From the iconic blue-and-white buildings of Santorini to the ancient ruins of the Acropolis, everywhere you turn in Greece you’ll spot yet another scene pretty enough to be on a postcard. Despite the beauty of Greece, many of its islands remain relatively untouched (probably down to the fact that there is a whopping 227 of them!). Our experts can customise the perfect Greece romantic holiday for you, so whether you want to tick all the famous spots off your bucket list or go off the beaten track, we can help. Without a doubt, the cherry on top of your holiday will be the warm and welcoming people – go to any local taverna and we guarantee they’ll insist you have dessert and a shot of raki on the house.

Kate was brilliant - she really cared about making sure she tailored everything to give us the best possible experience. I usually research, book and organise all our trips myself but this trip has completely converted me to the Original Travel way! Thank you so much for a brilliant, much needed break!"

Our experts specialise in tailor-made trips so they’ll create the perfect Greece romantic holiday for you. Here are some examples of what could be included in your itinerary:


Watch the Santorini sunset

They don’t call Santorini the honeymoon island for nothing. If you’re looking for the ultimate Greece romantic holiday, look no further. Those photos you’ve seen on Instagram of blue-and white-buildings sloping down to the sea? It’s called a caldera, a crescent-shaped stretch of coast formed thanks to a volcanic eruption, creating perfect sunset views. The caldera side of the island boasts endless top-notch restaurants, bars and accommodation so you can soak up every ounce of its breath-taking view.


Go island hopping

A Greece romantic holiday is the perfect opportunity to go island hopping. Many of Greece’s 227 islands are grouped into tight-knit archipelagos which are easy to travel around by boat. The Cyclades are perhaps the most famous (you’ve probably heard of Santorini and Mykonos) but there are quieter parts of the Cyclades too, like Delos, a completely uninhabited island and the mythical birthplace of the Greek God Apollo. Keen hikers will enjoy the Dodecanese islands, and history buffs should head to the Saronic islands for endless ancient ruins.


Dinner by the sea in Chania

The city of Chania in Crete - the largest Greek island - is home to one of our favourite spots for a romantic dinner. Thalassino Ageri, a locally-run restaurant with an unbeatable view, is one of Crete’s best-kept secrets. Tables laid with old-fashioned cloths sit among the rocks on the edge of the sea so you can watch the sun set over the waves. This restaurant really encapsulates the rustic, laid-back style of a Greece romantic holiday.
