Wow! What a crazy year, I’m sure we are all ready to start seeing some different scenery! I definitely needed an escape so booked to the Greek islands, I picked Greece as the numbers had been low. I chose a small resort as I wanted a relaxed break with a beautiful beach and some small tavernas.
The flight from Manchester was great, the airport was extremely well organised and smooth with various shops
and bars open. Masks needed to be worn on the flight but I felt very relaxed and safe throughout. Due to the low numbers and extra measures its probably the best airport experience I’d had!
While in Corfù masks only need to be on public transport and in shops. Social distancing was taken very seriously, but the atmosphere was lovely. The Greeks are such a friendly nation and they are doing as much as they can to make you feel welcome, and more importantly safe.
We hired a car for a few days and toured the island visiting some gorgeous beaches and then spent days on the beach. In the evenings we sat outside on the hotel terrace and went to the nearby tavernas.
For anyone that is considering visiting Greece, based on my experience I couldn’t recommend it enough!
