Title: Next Destination - Albania or Greece?
Post by: BlackEagle on July 12, 2012, 03:18:47 pm
Merhaba,

Me and my close friends have been travelling around the country for 2 years. There is almost no touristic place that we didn't visit in Turkiye. It's high time we went overseas. We came up with 2 options, Albania or Greece. We are 6 people, 3 guys and 3 girls, all 19 years old (crew members might change according to the destination though).
Please help us to pick where to go, we are planning to leave on 20th august 2012 and stay for a week.

Thanks in advance.

You should consider going to the beaches of Montenegro. Very, very beautiful, and the climate is extraordinary.

Albania, no questions asked. You got like what, up to five beaches to choose from... Lovely palm trees, great historic landmarks, etc.

Do you really wanna say that he should choose Albania instead of Greece for the historic landmarks and stuff like that? I agree about the beach stuff but that was funny.

If you truly have visited Bulancak, then ok....

As you are from Turkey I would go to Albania. In general less likely to get in to trouble (though with guys like TheRock you will be ok  ;)) And it would be a more interesting journey as less people visit there.
On  the other hand.... the more money you spend in Greece the less they need from other EU countries.. :lol:

As for people, Russians like Greek because they are as close to them with respect to enjoying life as possible. I remember a business trip where the local Greek guy would sleep until 10, pick us op, do business until 12, went for lunch together, returned at 2 to close the deals, and from 3 until the early morning spent in the Bouzoukia.
As he was the only worker in that shop, whenever he was not there things were closed. Never seemed to hurt his business though... ;)

What a surprise, you've been to Bulancak? Well I didn't see that exact town but I've been to Giresun several times. I'm from Rize, Black Sea region is like all check.
Oh and about being Turkish, I look more Russian than most of the real Russians do, so it wouldn't be a problem I guess :D

Your money is always welcomed here, same as you. Hit us up if you want a tour in Athens :)

Oh and if any locals ask you where your from, you can say Azerbaijan  :lol:

In Athens there's a lot of good things, and as always bad.

There are a lot of museums, historical artifacts etc. from Paleolithic area or w/e, Golden Age, Roman, Macedonian era, Byzantine, Ottoman etc. Ofcourse there are night clubs, festivals of all kind of music, concerts and yea there are beaches in Athens suburbs. We even have three islands where we can easily get to with a ferry. There are good hotels, I'd rather say "not so expensive" and the transportation is a piece of cake. You got cabs, buses, trolleys, metro, trains etc. so if you want to visit another part of Athens there won't be a problem. I'd recommend you to bring warm clothes if you're coming because the heat is tense during the day.

Now let's talk about the bad things.

Protests every day, I am sure you've seen it like once a week on TV but it happens a lot more because of the austerity measures. Also the city centre..full of illegal immigrants, I don't have anything against them however the city centre looks like shit. They usually have their own small kiosks selling things much cheaper but ofc Chinese stuff, not genuine. Other than that there is a lot of crime in the city centre and our Police can't do anything about it, not to mention the prositutes hanging out on every traffic pole. And yes as you mentioned the prices are not always good.

Most of them were ruined when we got our independence, but some still remain mainly in Ioannina (NW Greece) and Thessaloniki.
