1. Zakynthos

Small piece of heaven on earth. Light blue water, amazing cliffs, rocks and underwater caves allows you to experience something brand new in your life. Although staying in this place might be quite expensive but it's definitely worth it.

2. Meteora

This is just insane. Jaw-dropping nature and landscapes, first place I'm going to visit on my next trip to Greece. For a place like this hotels are pretty cheap starting from only 25€ a day.

3. Delphi

Talking about Ancient Greece this is probably one of the most spectacular and one of the most visited object of Ancient Greek history. If you're even a little bit interested or somehow familiar with history, especially Greek's then I really recommend you to visit it!

4. Zagori

Best and most attractive Greek national park. Perfect place for family or alone. Beautiful contrast of nature made and man made objects. Here you can experience various kinds of activities like cliff diving, expeditions around canyon or just stay and enjoy the incredible view.

5. Parga

Reason I included this is because I visited it and got some experience.
Nice beaches, blue water and wonderful nature surrounding. Quite good variety of tasty and cheap ice cream. A lot of orange trees which was awesome for me since they're not growing in my country and are pretty expensive back there. How I've heard, hotels are quite expensive here as well, but I didn't face any problems since I was staying at my cousins hotel.
