I'm thinking about signing up for Florence to Athens in August, which is a good time for me to be away from the office (since everyone else is gone then, too). Is this going to be a terribly hot time to be in Italy and Greece? Is it going to be a really dead time to be there, with a lot of places closed, since this is a popular time for people there to go on vacation, too? Am I going to be able to find airfares anywhere close to reasonable?

Hi Watercat,
Interesting name?
Yep it is going to be hot, but think of the tan!
You are also right in saying that August is a popular time for Meditereanians to holiday, but this must be for a good reason right? I can promise you that if it was a bad time of year to travel we just wouldnt run a departure, its as simple as that! I have no doubt this trip will brilliant all year round...go on, go for it!
