16 Oct 2019Glyfada is a stylish and vibrant suburb that has something for everyone. It is, however, an expensive area filled with designer shops and trendy restaurants and is well worth a visit. There are several beaches nearby for catching a bit of sun!
4/5 - Good

14 Aug 2019It's a nice area but a bit of a trek into the centre if you need to do it each day. Convenient if you need a break between ferries and airport for a couple of nights.
