Greece Travel Budget Guide

Planning Your Greece Budget

Greece offers incredible variety - affordable Athens and the mainland, moderate mid-tier islands like Crete and Rhodes, and expensive glamour islands like Santorini and Mykonos. Ferry costs add up quickly when island-hopping, so plan routes carefully.

Regional Price Differences

  • Athens: Surprisingly affordable for a capital city. Great budget food and accommodation.
  • Santorini: Most expensive Greek island. Caldera views command premium prices.
  • Mykonos: Party island prices - expensive accommodation, food, and beach clubs.
  • Crete: Large island with range of prices. Heraklion affordable, resort areas pricier.
  • Rhodes: Good value with mix of history and beaches.
  • Mainland (Delphi, Meteora): Very affordable outside peak season.
  • Thessaloniki: Second city, excellent value with great food scene.

Money-Saving Tips for Greece

  1. Eat at tavernas, not tourist restaurants - Waterfront views cost 50% more for same food.
  2. Book ferries early - Blue Star and Hellenic Seaways offer discounts for advance booking.
  3. Visit shoulder season - May-June and September offer great weather at 30-40% lower prices.
  4. Choose budget islands - Naxos, Paros, Crete are better value than Santorini/Mykonos.
  5. Drink house wine - €5-8/carafe at tavernas vs €20+ bottles at restaurants.
