Cheap holidays with gyros and strikes

The crisis in Greece has drastically reduced the price of holidays in the country. This could be a big opportunity for tourism, but strikes could spoil the experience for tourists, writes the daily Novinar: "The economic crisis in Greece everyone is complaining about could have a positive aspect. The collapse has led to dramatic price cuts on package tours to our southern neighbour. If you book your holiday in time and outside of the peak season in July and October, reductions can amount to 30 percent - for unwinding in five-star hotels where you know what you're spending your money on. ... But the strikes could turn the country into a trap because there's no certainty that Greek farmers won't block the borders again."
