Have your passport ready, but not sure where to go?
How about travelling to the place Greek gods, goddesses and mythological creatures call home.
Contiki Holidays Canada president Brad Ford tells me when it comes to great destinations he has so many. However, Greece jumps to the front of his mind in a real hurry, especially when you start talking about destinations like Athens, the Greek Islands of Santorini and Ios.
Ford says the best thing you can do when you are there is get to know the locals.
“Cause the locals have all the answers for you, they know exactly where to go, they know where all local hang outs are and food places,” said Ford.
Ford says you will find them so easy to get along with.
“Especially in a country in like Greece where you’re coming in at a time where they really appreciate your support and your dollars, they want to show you the best time possible. So really that local experience is what I would really recommend.”
