Know before you go
Insider trips about how to navigate Greek culture.
While it may feel awkward at first, attempting the local language goes a long way when navigating a city and interacting with people. Practice these basic phrases in Greek to get started:
- Hello / Goodbye: YAH-soo
- How are you?: Tee-KAH-nis
- Good morning: Kah-lee-MER-ah
- Good afternoon: Kah-lee-SPER-ah
- Good night: Kah-lee-NEEKH-tah
- Thank You: Eff-kha-ri-STOE
- Yes: Neh
- No: OH-hee
- Where is ___?: Pou einai
- General exclamation or excitement: OPA!
As you prepare to spend time in a new culture, here are some expert tips to help you understand the ins and outs of Greece—and feel like a Greek God or Goddess:
- Hospitality: Greeks are famous for their warmth and generosity. Expect open arms, personal questions, and maybe even an extra helping of dessert.
- Relaxed pace: Life runs on “Greek time.” Meals are long, service is slow, and no one’s in a rush—and that’s the beauty of it.
- Respect the church: The Orthodox Church is a major part of daily life. Cover your shoulders and knees when entering churches or monasteries.
- Social norms: Greeks are social and expressive—don’t be surprised by big gestures, loud conversations, or friendly teasing.
- Driving: Traffic signs are often more like suggestions. Be cautious when crossing streets!
- Nightlife: Clubs don’t start hopping until midnight and stay open until sunrise.
- Drinking culture: Enjoy your ouzo or wine, but know your limits—drunkenness is frowned upon.
- Dancing: If someone invites you to join the dance, get up and shout “Opa!”—it’s rude to refuse.
You’ll sample a variety of local dishes on your trip, but read on for tips, tricks, and delicacies you just must try.
- Meal times: Lunch is often around 3pm, dinner around 9pm or later. Eating is an event, not a task.
- Coffee culture: Try an ellinikos (Greek coffee) or a frothy freddo cappuccino. Greeks take their coffee seriously.
- Drinks: Beer and wine are staples. Try retsina (resin-flavored white wine) or Mythos beer.
- Baklava: The ultimate Greek dessert—layers of flaky pastry, honey, and nuts.
- Dolmadakia: Grape leaves stuffed with rice, herbs, and lemon.
- Gyro: Shaved pork or chicken wrapped in pita with tzatziki, tomato, onion, and fries.
- Ouzo: A strong anise-flavored aperitif, often enjoyed by the sea.
- Fava dip: Made from yellow split peas—especially popular in Santorini.
- Feta me meli: Warm baked feta cheese drizzled with honey. Sweet, salty perfection.
- Saganaki: Fried cheese, often served flaming. Say “Opa!” when it’s lit.
- Moussaka: A baked dish layered with eggplant, minced meat, and creamy béchamel sauce.
Pro tip: It’s polite to finish everything on your plate—it’s a sign you enjoyed the meal.
From ancient ruins to island sunsets, Greece blends history, culture, and natural beauty in one unforgettable package.
- Athens: The cradle of Western civilization. Visit the Acropolis, Parthenon, and lively Plaka neighborhood.
- Santorini: Famous for whitewashed houses, blue domes, and sunsets that stop you in your tracks.
- Mykonos: The island of windmills, beach clubs, and vibrant nightlife.
- Crete: Greece’s largest island, with beaches, mountains, and the mythic Palace of Knossos.
- Ios: The ultimate Greek island for beach days that turn into unforgettable nights out.
Greek culture is a lively blend of ancient tradition and modern Mediterranean joy.
- Philotimo: A uniquely Greek concept that combines honor, generosity, and pride—it drives everything from hospitality to heroism.
- Family first: Family ties run deep; it’s common to see several generations eating or celebrating together.
- Food & celebration: Meals are social events filled with laughter, music, and storytelling.
- Music & dance: Expect bouzouki music, folk dances, and spontaneous “Opa!” moments wherever you go.
- History everywhere: From ancient temples to Ottoman fortresses, every corner of Greece tells a story.
- Art & philosophy: The birthplace of democracy and philosophy still celebrates creativity and debate today.
There’s never a bad time to visit Greece, but each season has its perks:
- Spring (April–June): Pleasant weather, wildflowers, and fewer crowds—perfect for sightseeing.
- Summer (July–August): Peak beach season. Expect hot days, lively nightlife, and packed islands.
- Fall (September–October): Warm seas, mild temperatures, and a slower pace. Great for foodies and hikers.
- Winter (November–March): Quieter and cooler, ideal for exploring historical sites without crowds.
Whenever you go, Greece offers a mix of ancient wonder, island charm, and unforgettable filoxenia—Greek for “love of strangers.”
