According to Lonely Planet, winter can be a cheaper time to visit Greece. From November to March, the region sees a low tourist turnout and hotel prices and entry fees for some attractions drop.

Winter also means fewer tourists, so visitors can explore popular places without crowds. They can also experience the relaxed side of Greek life.
