OMG? Is this comment serious? Greece is in Europe, planet earth and not a desolated land on Mars! Greeks are of Mediterranean culture, mainly open and friendly. They deal with tourists from all over the world since maaaaaaany years and they know the business. I believe that the most difficult part can be the language, as generally speaking - don't know why - in Greece not many people speak fluently English (also in Italy we have the same problem!!). Other that that, great sea, great food, great great ancient culture and history to discover, nice and bubbly people. Book your tickets and don't be afraid! And yes, greek people have two arms, two legs, two eyes and they are not little green pale creatures!! J/k, enjoy your time there, and welcome to Europe!

This comment is warranted. Dude thinks he's a king and is wondering if the peasants will harass him. No one's going to give a shit. It is for sure a strange comment.
It seems from a sibling comment that I'm totally wrong when I state that speaking English in Greece may be difficult. I stated that based on my personal perception only, so probably I'm wrong. Sorry for the misinformation.
