Thomas Cook picks out the best in Greece

Greece boasts over 2,000 islands, so making a decision on which one to visit could prove a little daunting.

Tour operator Thomas Cook helps the British holiday maker  by picking some of the best in their latest brochure,:

  • Best for beaches: Kefalonia
  • Best for history buffs: Rhodes
  • Best for scenery lovers: Thassos
  • Best for budding explorers: Crete

Thomas Cook comments on Crete: “The island of Crete might be home to some of the best beaches in all of Greece, but there’s far more to the largest of the Greek islands than just that. Its multiple ancient sites and varied terrain makes it perfect for those who struggle to spend all day attached to their sun loungers. Explore the ancient city of Knossos, take a boat ride to the former leper colony of Spinalonga or trek through Samaria Gorge and the White Mountains”.
