To travel to Greece, citizens from the EU do not need a visa. Travelers from non-EU countries usually need to apply for a Schengen visa, which can be applied for online or at the Greek embassy. Arriving with a visa is not possible, so plan your trip in advance and check specific requirements for your country.
The Athens Airport (ATH) is the best entry point for motorcycle trips in Greece. It offers numerous international connections. Alternatively, airports in Thessaloniki or on islands like Mykonos and Santorini can be useful if you want to go directly to the Aegean. Make sure to choose a central location to explore multiple routes.
The Euro (EUR) is the official currency in Greece. Credit cards are widely accepted, especially in cities, but it's advisable to carry some cash for small businesses or rural areas. An ATM is often available in every town. Check local banks for competitive exchange rates and to avoid high fees.
General vaccinations are usually sufficient for travel to Greece, but travel insurance should definitely be considered for coverage in health emergencies and theft. Check the specific requirements for health guidelines and recommended vaccinations, especially in rural areas, before traveling.
In Greece, you can easily purchase a SIM card at airports, stores, or mobile providers. The largest providers are Cosmote, Vodafone, and Wind. Be sure to choose a plan that offers sufficient data usage for navigation during motorcycle trips. Have your passport ready, as it is often required for purchase.
