Presents from the Port

During your stay in Corfu, you'll have ample opportunity to explore the atmospheric and historic port market. The whole town is a mix of different ideas and cultures, and this comes from the 17th and 18th century when ships would stop here at the first port of the Serene Republic of Venice. A maze of markets can be found here, selling honey, olive oil, soaps, hand-crafted jewellery and ceramics in abundance.

Chania Market

Holidays to Chania Crete are perfect if you need to escape the heat and spend a little time in the shade. The covered Chania Market, located in the north east of Crete, is the ideal place to head for a shopping time out. Selling some of the best local treats going, and crammed with delicious treats, from thyme honey to tasty cheese, there's something for everyone here. What's more, there's no excuse not to treat yourself after saving your money by booking cheap hotels from Purple Travel.

Medieval Rose Festival

Once youve chosen your hotel in Rhodes, you'll soon be experiencing the sunny climes and gorgeous beaches that make this island so popular amongst holidaymakers. But, whilst youre there why not check out the exciting festival scene? Visitors in May will be able to catch the Medieval Rose Festival of Rhodes. This annual tradition has been taking place since 2006 and is a celebration of the town's extensive history, as well as being a chance for both tourists and locals to enjoy delicious banquets of island specialities or indulge in a spot of souvenir shopping.
