Scarlotte Posted March 21, 2007 #1 Share Posted March 21, 2007 OK...so this is a really silly question; but here goes. WIll be visiting Athens, Santorini and Rhodes. And have maps. Several maps show Greek lettering. Are the street signs in Greek lettering or are they in the alphabet we are familiar with? Will signs outside tourist sites, the metro stops,etc be in Greek letters or both? I laughed and appreciated one kind soul's posting which also included actual photos of metro station stops from Piraeus. Just wondered if the signs outside the metro stations are as helpful.

KT32 Posted March 21, 2007 #2 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I found often signs were in both languages, athough the English equivalents were not always spelled the same for the same place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainmare Posted March 21, 2007 #3 Share Posted March 21, 2007 In Athens the signs are in Greek letters and Anglo letters, but the little map we got with our tickets was only Greek letters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HeinBloed Posted March 22, 2007 #4 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Hello, signs look like this: Outside Athens road names are sometimes only in Greek. Regards, HeinBloed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
