Product Description

Even in mythic Greece, everything old is new again. While
ageless in the appeal of its ancient ruins and sunbelievable
beaches, Greece now has a hip and happening vibe. The
post-Olympic "European" country is burgeoning with luxe
resorts, hot restaurants, and sophisticated nightlife that
challenges the Zorba-era conceptions of the spartan Aegean. To
track all the buzz, this new edition comes newly loaded with photos,
magazine-like features on Greek style, and expanded island coverage.
If travelers want to find out where Zeus’s sky is faultlessly
azure, Poseidon’s sea warm, and Dionysus’s nightlife swinging
(especially in Mykonos’s discos), this is the one guidebook to buy.

● New photo-rich special sections on Greek culture, food, and
history include “Oppa!: How to Dance like Zorba,” “Ye Gods!:
Who’s Who in Greek Mythology,” and “Let the Games
Begin!: A Visit to Olympia.”

● New “Experience Greece” chapter highlights the top attractions,
the best beaches, practical itineraries, and tips for planning
your trip.

● New “Cruising the Greek Islands” chapter has reviews of every
major cruise line and itinerary sailing the Greek isles.

● Unique topographic, interactive maps of each region in Greece.

● Names of major cities, towns, and ports of call appear in English
and Greek.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Buy This Book, April 15, 2009
I am extremely disappointed in Fodor's Greece--to wit, it contained poor or grossly inadequate maps, lacked useful information, and contained few photographs, none of which were in color. Do yourself a favor: buy Lonely Planet's Greece.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not the best, November 25, 2008
In preparation for our trip to Greece, Fodor's Greece was recommended by a friend. I purchased it and used it in a recent trip to Greece. In my opinion the guide is lacking, and frustrating to use. I have used The Rough Guide for foreign travel in the past, and by comparison find The Rough Guide much more helpful due to the maps, organization and text.
