What I love about travelling is listening to the most talented and beautiful musicians in the world! When I go to Greece this summer, I would love to go to some concerts or anywhere where there is live music (bars, restaurants etc.) If anyone has any ideas about where I can go to listen to some traditional Greek music and of course dance, please let me know! I am super eager to see your replies and hear your advice.

Where are you going to be visiting? I personally love the scene on Mykonos because a lot of the good clubs are right on the beach.
 

Visiting More Obscure Places in Greece

I just saw a post for a place n Greece I have never heard of - Aitoliko. This is fascinating because when I think of visiting Greece, I think of the main places - Thessaloniki, Athens, Santorini, Mykonos, Crete, Rhodes, etc... I would love to start visiting some of these smaller places! Does anyone have recommendations? Something top of mind that I should prioritize?

Is it scary to drive in Greece?

I have heard some horror stories of driving in Greece, but many of these stories took place in cities like Athens. Is this observation true?

The reason why I am asking is because I am going to be visiting Tinos soon and would like to rent a car to explore the island. I heard that this was a fantastic way to get around. Tinos is small, and to me this means the driving might not be bad.

I had a bad driving experience in Italy while in Rome, but once leaving Rome and entering the countryside it was totally fine. I'm hoping Greece is like this, too!

Anything to actually do in Piraeus?

I am traveling to Greece this summer and flying into Athens. I will spend a few days there, then head out for a cruise. I am trying to figure out where to stay. When I ask, no one tells me to stay in Piraeus, which would be the most convenient option. Is there a reason no one is stying near Piraeus? Or am I missing something?

So far, I am thinking of booking a hotel by the Acropolis - but I want to consider all my options.

Breaks 12-month Short-term Rentals Record.

Yes that's all well and good....the downside to this as is all over the European destinations that there aren't any rentals available for locals,the rents are extortionate,the areas once neighbourly don't exist anymore!.....And with it arrives inferior quality travellers!
