Is it safe to go to Greece?

Is it safe to go to Kos, Greece at the moment with the riots?

  • Is there somewhere safer to go on holiday with my boyfriend (still in Greece) or is this location okay? We want to go quite soon I'm 17 and he is 18

  • Answer:

    Most of embassies advise people not to travel to destinations like Greece, Mogadishu or Bangkok in such times, and is the possibility the situation might escalate and occupy the airport in order to make their voices heard. I would suspect the islands might not be affected as in Athens for example, however it always takes a small group people with 'problems' to affect the tourists' life. Keep an eye on the news and Home office web site.

Perfectly safe. Any demonstrations that take place are in the heart of Athens. Ignore trolls that will arrive soon and tell you it isn't.

sadly there is trash that yahoo is yet to ban from these pages who lie about riots, who insult Hellenism, who misrepresent themselves... Ellada is safer than many other countries I can name go and enjoy, but watch how much raki you drink

The only riots you have to deal with is the ones at the beach and at the night clubs.

You are as safe in the Greek islands as you are in your own home. Go and relax and enjoy the beauty that is the Greek Islands. Gary www.choose-greek-islands.com

Greece is perfectly safe and especially islands. We have no riots just demonstrations and most of them are peaceful so don't worry you'll have a great time

If there were riots, CNN and international media would have covered that obviously! There are no riots here. Pay no heed to the fanatic people who frequent this part of yahoo answers. It is ABSOLUTELY safe to go to Kos.

Dude, there were worse riots in UMass when the football team lost to some plinky-*** team from West Virginia. Trust me, you'll be fine in Greece.

Not that bad of course. We don't have a civil war, just riots. Only few death person per day. Here is very safe, come and spend some money cause we are in deep crisis.
