The Bottom Line
If you buy only one program on Greece, this is it. This program was shown on some PBS channels in the United States, and quickly became a must-see for anyone who loves Greece. It is exceptionally uplifting for what is, at its heart, "just" a travel video. If you have any doubts as to whether Greece is the best place to spend your travel budget, this show should convince you.

Guide Review - Visions of Greece
No matter how many times you travel to Greece, you'll never see it this way unless you rent a private helicopter. Although the shots are from above the ground, the program creates an amazing sense of intimacy. Seeing Greece from a Zeus-eye view brings it to life in an amazing way.
There are two versions under this name - one of them features a soundtrack by Yanni. Even if you're not a big Yanni fan, his music melds perfectly with the images and it's the one I prefer, though both are worth watching.
