Greece Itinerary for a Whole Month

It’s been a year since my Greece trip ended - on June 3^rd 2015 to be exact. I felt both happy and sad – happy because it was such a wonderful dream trip, and sad because it ended – and at the same I couldn’t wait to go straight to a Padang restaurant because I missed Indonesian food so much, especially the sambal. During the trip, I had planned to write about my experiences in Greece on this blog, and thought maybe I’d need a whole year to accomplish it. The fact is, I haven’t even finished half of it until now!

From all of the stories and information on Greece that I’ve posted, the post about visa application (for Indonesians) and trip budget are the ones that get the most visits and comments. People have also asked about my Greece itinerary. So now I’m going to list down the itinerary with the highlights of my activities.

Note that this is a Greece itinerary for a whole month. If you’re thinking of going for a different amount of days, you might want to modify it. Here we go!
