Destinations in Greece and Turkey<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Two countries, seventeen regions and hundreds of places I visited. Choose the part of the Mediterranean that interests you.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n

Greece, the land of a thousand islands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

More than 6,000 islands and islets<\/strong>, of which about 227 inhabited<\/strong>, and six different regions on the mainland. Each has its own story, so start with the one that appeals to you the most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turkey, the junction of Europe and Asia<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A land of contrasts that combines rich history, different cultures and natural beauty. Although it is better known for its land, Turkey also has an eye 500 islands and islets<\/strong>, mainly in the Aegean and Marmara Seas, and the largest is G\u00f6k\u00e7eada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n
\n\n

World's top by visit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Greece and Turkey are among the most visited tourist countries in the world, with developed infrastructure and flights throughout the year.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\n\n
\n\n

Sea and history<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

They are equally good for vacationing and for cultural and historical research, often in the same day.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\n\n
\n\n

Thousands of islands<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Greece has more than 6,000, Turkey about 500. From crowded to empty ones.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\n\n
\n\n

Food and hospitality<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Rich gastronomy, diverse landscapes and a welcome that will be remembered longer than the destination itself.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The best destinations for family vacations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Both Greece and Turkey have many child-friendly destinations, with kids' clubs, water parks, aquariums and all-inclusive hotels. Here is where I would start looking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
