Greece is THAT EXPENSIVE!? | Cost of Traveling GREEK ISLANDS for 10 Days 

Despite how expensive the cost of traveling is, Greece is a wonderful country is explore.

I was shocked to hear you paid €100 a night for accommodation. I have stayed in many Greek Islands, including twice in Milos and have never paid even half of that. I usually find a nice clean studio for 20 to 40 a night and have never been disappointed. I have travelled to Greece over the years in every month from May to October. Even in Santorini there are many reasonably priced places to stay, for example, at Perissa and very reasonably priced restaurants away from the caldera views.

You can't be complaining when you go to Mylos Mykonos and Santorini. Mainland Greece is much more cheap

I love this type of video with the costs. Thanks and keep them coming!

Thank you for the information. I’m going to Santorini & Naxos in a month. Still working on the itinerary, good to know I need to rent my car before I go! I agree with your idea of balancing expenses, nice hotel & public transportation. That’s my plan too.

Nice way to start my Satruday afternoon... watching a new Kaja video. Thanks for the tips and the great landscapes as always.

Thanks for sharing, love your video😍

Another way to save money when visiting Greece is to not go to the popular expensive islands. There are hundreds of places to visit during Summer, equally good than those highly advertised islands in the Cyclades.

This is the information I’m looking for in vlogs and almost no one shares. You confirmed that Greek islands are more expensive in comparison to mainland, but still affordable, I guess. Great video, but what I loved the most was the cute waving granny ❤️

It's just as cheap or as expensive as you want. I go every year twice to Greece and every time for 6-7 weeks. The best (and often the cheapest) islands are the ones without an airport where charter planes full of tourists can land.

I can't wait for your Paros and Ios vlogs! Heading there in September :)

" The climb up was harder than the climb down, who would have thought that." So funny 🤣 great wit. 👍😊 Thanks for all the price information ℹ️.👍😊🇬🇷

Thanks for your interesting videos. Please make more videos about your casual life in Poland as well.

It’s definitely fun to mix up budget accommodation with something more expensive. I did that in Sicily (I used 4 different types of accommodation, 3 pretty cheap and 1 expensive) the funny thing was I expected to like the most expensive place best and it turned out I liked the cheapest best of all! It was 30 Euro per night. It’s nice when you get surprised like that!

It’s possible to travel off season (in October for example) for quite cheaply. Find street food and buy at grocery stores (depends but cheaper than €15-€20 per meal), book longer ferries or flights (a flight might be cheaper in advance) for $20-$50, stay in small hotels or hostels for $15-$40 a night, and take public transit. Even beautiful hotel rooms with views off season will be much cheaper than more expensive but similar destination. Although afaik Turkey or Georgia are both cheaper.

I get it. Mix expensive and cheap. Spend more on the accommodations, food and drink. Yassou! Thank you for your videos! You are a cutie pie.😊

I like to take public transport in every city I visit, even if I don't really need to, just to have a more immersive experience.

Nice video! Loving the views :) I did not take this as you complaining at all, just informative on the expenses with your traveling style. We’re quite similar (I also combine more ‘expensive’ - as a solo traveler - lodging with hostels and travel mostly on my own). I would really like to visit Greece, but it does suck (as I read in the comments) that with these prices it’s becoming unattainable for Greek people :(

Oglądanie tego z wakacji na Krecie jest jakieś takie fajniejsze💕🇬🇷

As long there are customers willing to pay 100 euros a day for a room (you chose a room with private pool and in the island it doesnt really matter how far you are from the center of the island) the owners will price it 100 euros a day. You chose to travel with speed ferries and it was your choice to pay 25- 30% more for that, also the price are up not cause of the pandemic but because of the war and the extreme prices of the gas. There are 100 more Greek islands that are half the price of what you spent in LUXURY places you chose. Everything is your choice . You can go to a restaurant and have a 10 euro Mousaka or a 100 euro Lobster. Both very tasty(Mousakas is better) but is up to you to decide what you will have .Finally you have to understand that the islands nowadays all mostly for tourist. We as Greeks if we are lucky enough to have a job we get paid 500-600-700 euros a month so Santorini, Mykonos Paros etc are way out of our budget. Pls enjoy the Greece that we cant.

Im glad that you like my country ☺️ I do love poland lots ❤️

Nice 1 - thanks😉

Thank you so much 😊 I could not find the prices for food anywhere, even on apps or menus on websites of cafes 😩

10 days in greece,3 island destinations,hot season,semi-expensive hotels,i am assumining that you took the ferry quite often,energy crisis, you could say that 500 euros is not that expensive but it is not cheap either

Prices are similar to any other European country because of the taxation. But Greece has services. it cannot be compared to Asian or African countries. In case of an accident, there are first aid centers in every island and a fleet of medical helicopters for a quick transfer to a large hospitals in Athens. Motorway network for road safety, high speed railway, fast catamaran and modern ships, coach and buses network, airport services and heliports in even the most remoted island. That's why we receive 30 million tourists per year, that's 3 times our population.

Wow! Cozy place!⛱🍺🌮🌯🍔👓you are real traveler!🔝🆒👍🌻🌼🌸🌺

It is what you make of it. It can be really cheap and super expensive. If you want a jacuzzi or pool to come with your room, well.. You pay the premium. And to be fair, accommodation in Santorini is probably the most expensive in Greece.

I think it depends where you're from (different countries have different sallaries) and which areas you're visiting (eg Mykonos and Santorini are expensive even for Greeks), and also what options you make (how much expensive the hotel is etc). I think sadly Greece is expensive for Greeks, but for people with a normal salary from abroad it's not too bad. Greek sallary is super low compared to abroad, like 600-700 euros per month.

One country where the prices surprised me was Romania, having lived in Poland for the last two years. And the quality of service was lower. I encountered restaurants that had only alcoholic drinks on offer and refused to serve water (but I could take the empty glass to the washroom and fill it myself in the washroom sink), a 20 euro hotel infested with cockroaches, and worst of all, an intercity bus line (costing 22 euro) at the last minute rebooking me on the 1:00 P.M. departure because they didn't sell enough tickets for the 10:30 A.M. departure. At least the museums were cheap.

This is pristine info

What was on the plate with the lemon? How much/

It all depends, Greece can be from super cheap to super expensive also in the same island!

It's very interesting with the sunbeds prices in Greece. The most expensive I have seen for a regular sun bed at a top beach is 40 euros, so when you said 120 euro for a bed, my jaw dropped. And it doesn't include anything! So does it include two beds for 120? Everywhere I went as a solo traveller It was a fixed price for 2 beds mostly. The best I've seen in Rhodos was in Kalithea Springs, you got a nice luxury bed for 10 Euro with 1 soda and 1 big bottle of water included, delivered to you with ice bucket. I would do sunbeds every now and then, mostly spending 5 euros, but also just lay on my towel for free. It's not ok to have prices that the locals can't afford, ethiqual questions comes to mind when travelling.

Great video!!!! The prices of ferries have gone up a lot, hopefully they will go down next year! Really I love how the prices of food are so affordable compared to Italy for example or Spain, a small tip since as a solo traveler it is always more expensive to eat and harder to split stuff, you can always try to ask for half portions. For some foods that is possible for example you could ask to have half a tzatziki and half of some other spread and in that way try 2 dishes instead of one. Some restaurants will do it if you politely ask, some will say no but you can try it. The Greek food industry is known for adjusting to the customer.

Which hotel is that you stayed in in Milos?? I want to book there for my trip next year!

with the exception of Mykonos Santorini Greece is affordable and unique destination worldwide

Greece is very much a affordable nation so I for the most disagree a bit with your video. I have been there 50 times, so I know what Im talkin about. You paid 100 euro's per night? That is just funny. I have hardly ever paid more than 65 euro and the vast bulk of it was 40-50 euro per night for incredible and wonderful stays. So, you spending 100 euro's per night in Milos is your choice. And don't try to say it is a better accomodation for 100 euro's for an argument, because that is nonsense from the accomodations I am seeing in your video. It all depends on how you look. For example. I just came from Jordan. Wadi rum is a lovely place. The tour in Wadi rum alone will cost 300-500 euro excluding everything else. But I managed to have a great place, the whole tour, breakfast, lunch and dinner included, for 4 people in total for 180 euro's. I arranged everything, and my friends where very surprised of how cheap it was. Basically the same quality for a much better price. I can also spend 5 times more. But I look a little bit better and find great options usually for great prices. Also. I haven't been to Mykonos, but I have been to Santorini 4 times. I don't need to be at the literal caldera, but very close to it, I spend 40-50 euro's per night. Why? Because I am a person that doesn't have to be sitting all day at the hotel. In Santorini the very best thing to ever do is go around the caldera and island. Have a walk from Oia to Fira or other way around and see the sunset, sunrise and so on. And for that you need to be outside and not in your hotel. So Santorini can absolutely be affordable. Yes. summer season is more expensive. Fully agree. and also this year everything in the whole world became atleast 10% more expensive. I rent cars for 2 weeks in all my stays in Greece. ALL my stays. I spend between 250-500 euro's for 14-18 days in Greece with full insurance and a good car. That is not expensive whatsoever. In low season I can get it for around 250-300 euro's for 2 weeks. So those are my transportation costs. I will not lie for the fact that unfortunately Greece, like every country is more expensive than before. And that means that countries that where already very expensive are going to be impossibly expensive slowly. And Greece becomes slightly less affordable on it's status of being a very affordable nation. But if Greece is becoming slight less affordable, I don't even want to know how it is going to be in Italy and other nations. I agree with your food prices. I pay generally for 2 people between 25-40 euro in total. So your prices of 15 euro for 1 person would match my expenditure options. But the costs of sleeping options and transport is something we differ on. By the way I am from the Netherlands. My milk costs me 1.50 euro now. some years ago it was 1 euro. Netherlands everything is expensive. Im happy I have a good salary. Or else I would call myself poor.

Helo, did you book hotels and ferries in advance from home, or when you got in Greece?

hi, what’s the name of the place where you stayed in Milos ?

NIce video

For BUDGET go to PALEOCHORA

Greece does look expensive based on the details mentioned by Kaja. Of course those who have lot of money would not mind. But common people like me would definitely find it expensive in Greece

plse show your taks on the screen in the english sentenses becouse who will understand and easily read plse insure kaja .

Name of the $100 hotel please?

Good morning 🌄 so beautiful ❤️❤️

100 euros for a apartment with a private pool on a greek island is expensive ? i dont think so.

Kaya come to Cyprus

if your going to famous Greek island it's not going to be cheap my dear

I like this video, but actually Greece is really expensive

I don't think Greece is that affordable now. Maybe it was 20 years ago.

So what do you expect?That Greece is Pakistan or Africa? Paying 30-50 euros per day to accomodation is expensive? So think for us Greeks how expensive it is, which really is. But it is not like other destinations.

which hotel is this?

Well, if you go to non-tourist places, you wouldn't pay nearly as much.

wow $5000 in 10 days?? 😱

120 bucks for a sun lounger???

Cost of travelling to Greek islands? 1 kidney

HI please notice me🥺

Do you like Greek man ?

It's ok 100 Euro from this place 💓

you are grease by the way

what is the best way to make money from crypto trading ?

100$ per night 🤣🤣🤣

what will be very interesting on this Greece journey is to find out if you got laid (or even flirted) while in Ios....

all true.... Albania is far far... cheaper and with the same beauty

Greece is overtly overrated, personally I found Tunisia to be similar (architecture, Mediterranean climate etc..) with better hotels and cheaper options, also when it comes to Islands, Thai or Indonesian islands are much better, I wont spend a penny on Greece any more after discovering Thailand and Indonesia.
