Cheap Greece Holidays

Cheap Greece Holidays

The perfect time to book cheap holidays to Greece is in April, May or October. Due to this being outside of the peak season, there is less demand at resorts which results in not only cheaper accommodation, but cheaper food and drinks too. It might even be beneficial to book room only accommodation due to the amount you’ll be saving on meals outside of the hotel.

Just because these months are considered off-peak doesn’t mean there’s nothing for you to do though! There are many sights to see and activities to partake in while you enjoy your cheap Greek holiday.

Cheap Greece Holidays in April

April is generally a time for Easter celebrations in Greece. If you’re in the country at this time you’ll see plenty of different ceremonies and parties. From people carrying candles on Good Friday, to a huge Lamb spit roast with plenty of wine on Easter Sunday itself. On the island of Crete you’ll generally see people collecting sticks and branches in order to make bonfires. These bonfires are used to burn an effigy of Judas Iskariot on Easter Sunday, especially in the Crete town of Harakas Monofatsiou which is built below the Asterousia Mountain.

Cheap Greek Holidays in May

May is another festive time in Greece with many different events going on all over the country. The temperature is starting to rise, so the usual sights to see like the ruins in Athens provide good enjoyment, as do the smaller festivals involving dancing, arts and athletics which pop up towards the end of the month. The area is not as busy as the peak summer months, so May is a good time to visit the country if you’re after a nice tan, but don’t want the beaches to be full of other holiday makers.

Cheap Greece Holidays in October

With the busy summer months starting to come to a close, October is an ideal time to look for a cheap holiday to Greece. Prices will be coming down, but the temperature will still be fairly hot, and if you’re just looking for a relaxing rest on a beach, or a nice cruise with various ancient sights to see, this is a great time to go. The Acropolis in Athens is a firm favourite, and with access to it until 7PM at night until the end of October, you’re not missing out on anything by waiting until after the busy summer period for your cheap Greek holiday.

There is plenty to do in Greece whether you go in the busy summer season or just outside of it, but if you’re looking for a cheap Greece holiday, April, May and October are your best bets.
