The My Big Fat Greek Wedding film series has captured the hearts of audiences for two decades with its humour, heart-warming family dynamics, and portrayal of Greek culture in North America. However, in the third instalment, the Portokalos family embarks on a journey to Greece, the motherland of their beloved recently departed patriarch. The decision to film in Greece not only marked a significant milestone in the franchise but also allowed viewers to immerse themselves in the beautiful Greek landscapes. In this blog, we'll delve into the reasons why these Greek locations are loved and how they contributed to the magic of the film.
Imagine a Greek island whose white-washed houses were powered only by wind and sun, where dolphins danced in its sapphire seas, and orchid-studded trails meandering across meadows and mountains were more plentiful than roads. Welcome to Tilos. Yes, it might be the island none of us have heard of, but that, perhaps, is its appeal. Part of the remote Dodecanese archipelago that hugs the Turkish coast, tiny S-shaped Tilos stands serene and solitary between bustling Rhodes and Kos. There’s no airport, it’s too far from its larger neighbours for day trips by boat, and mainland Greece is a 15-hour ferry journey away. So, the island quietly carves its own path – one that over the past few decades has had a refreshingly green hue.
Greece is synonymous with spectacular scenery, amazing beaches, great food, friendly people and stunning island destinations. While popular islands like Corfu and Crete are always a great choice, smaller, less-visited islands offer an exclusive and unique experience. If you're looking for something off the beaten path and largely untouched by mass tourism, check out some of our top picks for lesser-known Greek islands.
Spring in Greece offers mild and pleasant weather, with temperatures gradually warming up. From wildflowers to olive groves and citrus orchards, the country showcases its natural beauty during this season. If you're planning a holiday during this time, here are some things to look forward to.
