Hoping to fly to Greece in late April for two weeks with my 24 year old daughter. Hoping to do a lot of hiking
What is the garbage situation in Greece right now? A colleague went in September and said it was pretty bad. I’d appreciate any feedback and/or places to avoid
Also, will the ferries be fairly reliable in late April early May for some island hopping. Do you recommend I buy ferry tickets in advance( now) or wait til I get there?
Thank you
Laura from Ontario Canada

Hi Laura,
I hope you are well!
In regards to a garbage situation – I’m not really sure to what exactly you’re referring. You’ll find clean beaches almost without exception, and clean streets for the most part.
In the countryside, plastic has a tendancy to blow with the winds – we’re not talking Asia levels though.
of course if your friend visited an area where the garbage people were on strike that might be different.
Ferries will be on their schedules during those dates. If you are just travelling by foot (no vehicle), you could wait until you arrive as it’s not peak summer times.
