Trip Planning FAQs
How can I be polite in Greece?
One thing you should definitely keep in mind is to avoid extending your hand or hands towards someone with your palms open and all five fingers extended, like signaling someone to stop. In Greek this is called 'mountza' and it is a form of 'swearing' or insulting someone.
What should I pay attention to when visiting the church?
Don't show your bare legs or shoulders in a church, especially in a monastery. Please dress properly.
Is English widely spoken in Greece?
Greek is the official language of Greece, but English is also widely spoken, especially in tourist areas. Most young people there speak fluent English. Road signs in big cities are typically bilingual in Greek and English, which makes your Greece tours more convenient.
Can I flush the toilet paper in Greece?
Because Greek sewage pipes are small, generally 50 millimeters in diameter, so they clog easily with toilet paper. That's why you'll see signs all over Greece requesting that you throw away rather than flush your toilet paper. You'll find handy bins next to toilets.
