    Absolutely safe!
    As long as you avoid Syntagma square in Athens (only whenever people demonstrate). Everything else in Athens is easily accessible by the metro lines and of course in this hot summer you can access the rest of the mainland and the islands without any problems.
    I fully recommend ... The Acropolis (and the relevant museum) in Athens, Argos and Nafplion in Peloponnesse, the island of Santorini for the sunsets, the island of Ikaria for the alternative Greek entertainment, Crete, and the Simos beach in the island of Elefonisos at the east-southern end of Peloponnesse.
