When is the best time to visit Greece from Dallas and how do I avoid the crowds?
Greece in July and August is extremely crowded particularly on the popular islands. Santorini and Mykonos can feel overwhelmed with tourists in peak summer. The best times to visit are May to June and September to October when the weather is warm, the sea is swimmable, the crowds are thinner, and prices are significantly lower. Athens is great year-round. Island ferries run on reduced schedules outside peak season so plan accordingly. AA Passport & Visa advises DFW travelers to renew their passport well before any summer Greece departure.
