Basketball Tours to Greece

Greece, a land of history, Hercules, Plato and, of course, feta cheese. But Greece is also a haven for basketball. Boasting some of Europe’s most successful clubs in Panathinaikos, Olympiacos and AEK Athens, the capital is the perfect place to start your basketball tour.

Olympiacos can regularly attract 20,000 supporters to live games with the other ‘big two’ not far behind. Imagine watching Panathinaikos at work in the Olympic Stadium before a week of training and matches of your own.

By mixing basketball with the incredible history of Athens and plenty of opportunity to get to know your teammates better, we think it’s the perfect location for your next basketball tour.

What to do in Greece?

Steeped in history and culture, there is plenty to do between match days to make your team trip to Greece truly memorable.

Watch live basketball in a country that can attract up to 20,000 spectators to a single fixture
Train with The National Basketball Academy coaches
Utilise SPORTCAMP’s huge array of on site facilities including basketball courts, beach volleyball and 5-a-side football
Spend time in Athens visiting The Acropolis where you can view the famous Parthenon
Pay a visit to The Panathenaic Stadium, home of the first Olympic Games and the only stadium in the world built entirely of Marble

We also run a Basketball Camp in collaboration with Spartans Basketball Academy click for more information.

When to visit Greece?

The best time to visit Athens is between March and May and September to November. Sunshine is pretty much a guarantee without the scorching heat that accompanies summer. You’ll also find it can be more cost effective as summer is peak season for the region.
