Athens

Dominating the Attica region of Greece, the country’s capital, Athens, is one of the oldest cities in the world.

For over two and a half centuries, the astonishing Greek temples and monuments of Athens have continued to intrigue and amaze visitors from around the world.

This icon of western civilization seamlessly combines ancient history with modern architecture and a surprisingly lively atmosphere.

This is particularly apparent in areas at the foot of the Acropolis, Anafiotika, Plaka, Monastiraki and Thissio where visitors will find numerous extraordinary Neoclassical buildings, trendy and traditional cafes and shops, and narrow winding streets with historical treasures at every turn.

Once you have had a culture fix, try some mouth-watering Greek cuisine at one of the city’s fine local restaurants before indulging in the insatiable nightlife at the chic cocktail bars and waterfront dance clubs.

Paros

Paros is a Greek island in the central Aegean Sea. One of the Cyclades island group, it lies to the west of Naxos, from which it is separated by a channel about 8 km.

Historically, Paros was known for its fine white marble, which gave rise to the term "Parian" to describe marble or china of similar qualities.

Today, abandoned marble quarries and mines can be found on the island, but Paros is primarily known as a popular island for its superb beaches.

Naoussa is a wonderfully traditional fishing port on the northern side of the island, one of the prettiest villages in the Cyclades.
