The rules are on the gov.uk website. Note that they may change, either by Greece changing list, or by the rules for the list Greece is on changing.

You have to follow the rules that are in place when you arrive in the UK even if you have been vaccinated.
Arriving before 19 July travel to England
Before you travel to England you must:
- take a COVID-19 test
- book and pay for day 2 and day 8 COVID-19 travel tests – to be taken after arrival in England
- complete a passenger locator form
On arrival in England
On arrival in England you must:
- quarantine at home or in the place you are staying for 10 days

You need to isolate for 10 days. Alternatively take a day trip somewhere on the 19th so that you re-enter the UK and you won’t need to isolate.
