Though rare, petty crime may occur in major cities, especially in crowded areas like buses, trains, or busy plazas. Avoid petty theft by keeping your belongings secure and being vigilant of your surroundings.
When visiting the islands or on a Greece tour in summer, we also recommend that you are mindful of the heat and the sun. Use plenty of sunscreen to protect your skin and stay hydrated, especially when walking around hot and crowded areas like the Acropolis.
Greece’s official language is Greek, though English is widely spoken.
