Just returned from Athens and Naphilion Greece, all is well there. No protesters. Our Greek tour guide said that all the fires/violence shown on TV lasted for about 3 hours and that the only fire that occured was an accident and not related to the protesting. On any account, he joked that Greeks usually protest on Mondays or Fridays to get a 3 day weekend. |

As usual, you are right on top of things. I'm thinking my next trip, in a couple of weeks, may be for Souda Bay. I'll definitely keep this advisory in mind as well as reading it the latest information before I head out. |

We are planning a trip to Greece in July. Anyone been there lately? Know about the safety of Athens? The rioting doesn't look so good on TV. |
