Greek Road Signs

[Scarlotte]

OK...so this is a really silly question; but here goes. WIll be visiting Athens, Santorini and Rhodes. And have maps. Several maps show Greek lettering.

 

Are the street signs in Greek lettering or are they in the alphabet we are familiar with? Will signs outside tourist sites, the metro stops,etc be in Greek letters or both? I laughed and appreciated one kind soul's posting which also included actual photos of metro station stops from Piraeus. Just wondered if the signs outside the metro stations are as helpful.

I found often signs were in both languages, athough the English equivalents were not always spelled the same for the same place!

In Athens the signs are in Greek letters and Anglo letters, but the little map we got with our tickets was only Greek letters.

Outside Athens road names are sometimes only in Greek.
