Quick question for the Greece regulars — has anything changed in the last few months?
I was there 6 months ago and had a great time but I've heard prices have gone up.
Worth going back or should I try somewhere new?
Cheers

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

I was there in March and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $123/day all-in. Quality was above average.
My tip: go early evening for best selection.

Been going for years. The scene has stayed consistent.

Great report, thanks for sharing. I had a similar experience there last month.

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 9/10 destination.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the pandemic. Current prices are actually lower than what's described here.

Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were higher when I went. Maybe timing matters.

What was your total spend roughly? Trying to budget for mine.
