Gent Belgium to Greece
 

Guys just dreaming up next years holidays....

Time frame around 2 weeks.

Ride from Belgium to Greece via Italy or down the Croatian coast, about 1 week then meet the wife in Greece for a weeks beach holiday.

1.Can anyone recommend the "perfect" place to stay, rural quite beautiful landscape with perfect beaches not too many tourists.
2. Easy way to get my bike home if I would fly, maybe by truck or ride back to Italy and put it on a train....
3. How far can you ride in a week Yamaha Ténéré 600

Many thanks Matt

Matt,

I think one week is a very short time for the type of traveling you want to do from Belgium to Greece.
You won't be seeing much.
However if you really want to do it I would drive straight to Slovenia as fast as I can than take my time going down the Crotian coast all the way to Greece.

Just taken a look, its 1200 kms from home to Venice Italy and 36 hours by ferry to Patras Greece.

Where's the best places in Greece - anyone ?

Fly to a largish Greek island and hire a bike. I think you will enjoy your holiday more that way.

and not only for island.
and if you want to go back home without your bike ,this is the best way for me too.
Now about place to spend your week (so many)
depence from period.But for you I think Parga is the perfect place.And all the area near Parga.And close to Italy
