March 2026

My wife and I will be going to Greece for two weeks mid March. We realize this will not be a beach holiday and that Islands may be relatively shut down, therefore we were thinking of renting a car and touring the mainland. We are not city types so time in Athens may only a day or two. Is it better to pick one or two towns to use as a hub and the do day trips, or is it better to roam city to city. I lean towards the hub idea so not to be packing and unpacking bags. What are your thoughts on what’s the better way to do it?

It really depends on your choices, you can do a lot from Nafplio for example, if you head to the Peloponnese, but with two weeks, I would want at least two bases. The Bradt Guides are good.
