Spending 2 weeks in Greece could lend itself to a thorough Greek experience, including both the mainland and the islands. It's popular to spend some days on the mainland for historical exploration in Athens and Delphi followed by heading to the Cyclades islands for beach resorts and water fun.
Alternatively, you could stay on the mainland and embark on an epic journey through regions like the Peloponnese peninsula, Thessaly, and Northern Greece, including cities like Thessaloniki.
