- Tailor Made Holidays |

Strangely,
many visitors to Greece do not know how to say
'thank you' in Greek - even though they have visited many times. This part of
the website aims to rectify the situation by teaching some basic
conversational Greek. If you make an effort to speak some of the native tongue
during your visit, you will find the locals will 'open up' and be very receptive - although they will probably reply to you in English!
The following short course of
five lessons, will teach you a few useful
conversational Greek phrases and words. The lessons have been favourably praised by the BBC no less!
We are also working on a 'printable' version so that you can bring the
lessons on holiday. The locals will not know what has hit them!

Surely, one of the best

usually just hot, but we give you the full range of expressions, just in
case!

A great place to practice your Greek

order. At the very least, your friends will be impressed.
