Travellers and activities
Many people travel to Greece for its endless variety of attractions, including, of course, its fantastic beaches. One of the beaches you can visit is the heavenly Valtos Beach, located in the region of Preveza, specifically in the municipality of Parga. Just 20 minutes from the centre of the city, here you will find almost 2 miles of white sands, and a crystal clear sea, perfect for a day of fun under the sun. Furthermore, it has all the basic beach facilities such as sun loungers, umbrellas, toilets and showers, as well as a vibrant tourist environment.

Greece for history lovers. Besides visiting all the iconic places in Greece such as the Acropolis, the archaeological site of Delos, and the ancient landmark of Olympia, there are also many underrated places in this country for you to discover. One of them is the Tholos tomb of Acharnes, located in Athens, in the suburb of Menidi. Dating from the 14th-13th centuries BC, it is one of the best-preserved tholos (the name given to this type of burial place in the Mycenaean world) in Greece. Although it is surrounded by modern buildings, once you get to where it is built you will feel like you have really gone back in time.
Most monuments and attractions in Greece are forbidden to be entered wearing high heels, due to the damage they cause to the pavement.
