Greece is located at the south end of the Balkan Peninsula in southeast Europe. It is bordered to the east by the Aegean Sea and Turkey, the Ionian Sea to the west, and the Mediterranean Sea to the south. Greece shares land borders to the north with Albania, FYROM (the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia), and Bulgaria. TRAVEL INSURANCE FOR GREECE The capital of Greece is Athens, with all its fascinating history and must-see sites such as the Acropolis and Parthenon. The currency of Greece is the euro. Greece has a wide array of holidays and activities on offer. There is something to suit all tastes, whether you prefer the beach, the mountains, sports activities and adventure, sailing the seas, or a culture holiday exploring museums and ancient history and sites such as the Parthenon and Acropolis. Greece is quite mountainous, and its highest peak is Mount Olympus, with all its magic and associations with Greek mythology. The mountain ranges in Greece provide excellent outdoor activities year-round – and even skiing at the many ski areas and resorts. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office website contains excellent and updated travel advice as part of their ‘Know Before You Go’ campaign. Always visit their website for updated travel information and to check for any travel advisories before booking travel. KNOW BEFORE YOU GO Greece is a member of the European Union and visitors from EU countries should carry their European Health Insurance Card (EHIC). Although this entitles the bearer to emergency medical care in a state-run facility, it does not cover many other potentially expensive medical and travel mishaps, so it should never be used as a substitute for travel insurance. Outlying areas and islands may not cater to serious medical emergencies, necessitating transfer to a major centre by air ambulance. The EHIC does not cover air ambulance or medical repatriation expenses, or many other travel-related problems such as lost luggage, personal liability and legal expenses.
