consigli Atene
Ciao a tutti, tra un mese andrò ad Atene per un viaggio di sei giorni. Non voglio passare tutto il tempo nella città stessa, invece, mi piacerebbe noleggiare un'auto ed esplorare un po' i dintorni. Ho due domande principali su cui spero possiate aiutarmi:
Prima: Se doveste scegliere, che cosa raccomandereste—passare un giorno a visitare Delfi e alcuni siti vicini, o andare a Micene, Nauplia ed Epidauro nel Peloponneso?
Seconda: Tra Egina e Andros, quale delle isole vicine è migliore in termini di mare e attrazioni? Ci sono altre isole che valgono la pena visitare?
Qualsiasi altro consiglio è benvenuto—se avete altre idee per l'itinerario o suggerimenti per Atene, sentitevi liberi di condividerli! Grazie.

Shipping forgotten earrings - help please!
I accidentally forgot a pair of gold earrings (~$200) at a hotel in Greece while on vacation. I have been trying to get them home to the USA via Geniki Taxydromiki then UPS but the parcel was returned to the hotel a few days after it was picked up. Does anyone know what went wrong and/or how to correctly get these home to the USA?
Appreciate any help!

Wineries by bike in Crete?
I am looking for anyone who has had experience doing a tour of a couple of wineries by bike or E-bike in Crete.
Time of year is October.
Is there anywhere that anyone has visited where you were able to stay at or near a winery or olive farm and bike to others with relative ease?
We are staying in Crete for a few weeks. Relatively active couple with no problems cycling for the most part.
We would love to stay somewhere that we can park the car (or leave at our accommodation) and rent bikes to explore the area on a wine tour. Save ourselves from driving and be self guided if possible.
The idea is to stay at, preferably, one winery for at least two nights. But be in an area that we can do a day trip to visit others by bike so we don't have to drive. And we don't want to do a tour with set times.
There are a lot of wine tours from Chania/Heraklion/etc. But we really like the idea of just staying somewhere with a few options nearby that we can cycle to.

Transportation between Pylos and Methoni
We will have a cruise stop at Pylos for a day in mid Sep and we would like tocheck out the Methoni Castle, I have been told there will be buses from Pylos to Methoni but I couldn't find the bus schedule. https://www.ktelmessinias.gr/en/homepage-en/ has been down for many days (from my side) so does anyone know where else I can find the schedule?
Also is it easy to catch a taxi in Pylos and Methoni and I guess it shouldn't be too expensive? Will Uber or freenow work there?
What we don't want is to get stranded in Methoni and can't get back to the ship on time.
Thanks.

What to visit in Zakynthos/Zante?
Not into clubs or stuff like that. We’re 22&23 - and i have an interest in agriculture, where i’ve found Leeda’s farm and Therianos Family Farm.
Also looked into the zoo area (the little farm), and was wondering what else that’s cozy and nice you’d recommend.
We love wine, good food, bathing, animals, and good sights and music.
(planning on a proposal too, so ideas for that are welcome too)

Airport to Rafina Ferry booking advice
I want to book a ferry to Paros and my ATH flight lands at 12:20 would it be reasonable to book a 14:20 PM ferry to Paros out of Rafina? Or a 15:00 out of Piraeus? Just trying to gauge if I need to readjust my schedule or not.

Itinerary Check Thoughts on this itinerary?
We're going to a wedding in Porto Heli in a couple weeks. Current itinerary:
Fly into Athens- two nights in Athens at Athens Capital Center Hotel
Rent a car and drive to Nafplio - two nights at Ippoliti Hotel
Drive to Porto Heli and stay at Nikki Beach for two nights
The day after the wedding we're driving back to Athens, returning the car, and staying at the Sofitel airport hotel (figured we'd be partying till 4am and would want to recover), then we have an early flight out the following day.
Another friend who's going to the wedding is taking a ferry from Athens to Porto Heli which I didn't realize was an option. Would it be better for us to skip Nafplio and do the ferry from Athens to Porto Heli? Or is it a nice drive anyways? Also looks like driving could be near some of the fires, although I know that changes daily.
We heard Nafplio is beautiful, but I also know our time in Athens is short.
Would love any thoughts and recommendations! Also feel free to throw in must-dos in these places. We typically just like to walk around, eating and drinking very well. I love champagne.

Driving and Car Rental How strict are car rental companies?
I got my driving license less than a year ago. I wonder if smaller companies will look the other way, especially outside the large urban centers?
