I'm Dave Briggs, a UK travel writer living in Athens since 2015. With 20 years of firsthand travel experience and over 80,000 km of bicycle touring across six continents, Dave's Travel Pages is one of the most comprehensive resources for Greece travel planning and long-distance cycling routes online.
Every guide is based on places I've actually been. All content is regularly updated with current prices, ferry schedules, and practical details you can trust.
I've lived in Athens since 2015 and have visited over 50 Greek islands by ferry. These guides cover everything from island-hopping itineraries and the Greek ferry system to finding affordable hotels across the Cyclades, Dodecanese, Saronic, and Ionian islands.
Whether you're planning your first trip to Greece or looking beyond Santorini and Mykonos, here are the best places to start:
Bicycle touring is the perfect way to travel -- slow enough to take in everything around you, fast enough to cover real ground. It keeps you fit, it's eco-friendly, and every day on the road brings something unexpected.
Beyond Greece and cycling, you'll find destination guides and city break itineraries for countries across Asia, Europe, and South America -- all based on places I've personally visited.
I started this site in 2005 as a simple travelogue to share adventures with family and friends. Two decades and over 1,000 guides later, hundreds of thousands of readers visit every month. I've also co-authored two guidebooks to Greek destinations -- you can find them on my Amazon author profile.
