The chaos that typifies a visit to Greece is often evident when you place a call to Greece; connections are often poor. But if the following steps don't work the first time, try, try again.
Determine what time it is in Greece. Greece is 2 hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time, which means it is 7 hours later in Greece than it is on the East Coast of the United States, and 10 hours later than it is on the West Coast.
Remember that many, though by no means all, Greeks speak some English. If you're searching for a language in common, you can also try German or Italian.
Dial 011, the international access code.
Dial 30, the Greek country code.
Drop the 0 from the beginning of the city code. Some city codes of major cities in Greece are 01 for Athens, 061 for Patras, 0661 for Corfu, 0421 for Thessalia and 031 for Thessaloniki.
Dial the remaining digits.
