There is a plethora of tours to Greece for you to choose.
Why are we different ?
In a rural area like ours, there is a slower pace where all the traditions are more seen and heartfelt. People know of & about each other, their values still intact. They love to please the visitor, proud to show their culture and share. We are local, offering you to be with us and among us. We want you to interact, to see, to learn, who we are, what we do, what we offer, where we’ve been & yes, what we’ve ALL inherited! Our mission is not a plain tour of sites, of which we give you a good deal. Our mission is for you to get to know us – today – even though we cannot quite extrapolate ourselves from yesterday!
So much to see, so much to do, so much to learn, so much history of originality and intellect, so many 1sts that the world built onto, truly a place in time where yesterday and today intertwine. 2 weeks is indeed a very short time. Enough for a “taste” of Greece, engaging all your senses. We will give you that but we hope you’ll be able to absorb much more, to take back with you and onto your life forward, enriched, empowered and wiser like Odysseus on his journey back to Ithaca!
There’s a lot in our package. Yet we try to not restrict it into a compact tour. We want you to be a player on the stage, to have your own time to also experience the Hellenes in their daily lifestyle – a cultural education one can only get by being there, going through it, acquiring your own “eureka” moments like Archimedes! We believe that’s the most important lesson, one that you’ll carry for a lifetime. A truly unique experience! And one which, we hope, will make you a proud Philhellene! One you will always recall to relax, one that will make book pages jump out into live memories of an energizing and serene place, a history, a lifestyle – a treasured experience!
We strongly encourage you to bring a journal to capture your experiences or a specific angle-of-interest – a potentially excellent opportunity for a high school or college project for credit! We are more than happy to vouch such effort.
There is reason to why Greece is a most popular destination. All the books and pictures in the world cannot replace what can only be experienced interactively, seen and felt in the moment, live, 3-dimensional with you in it!!! Being in it, brings all your books/stories alive! The ancient and the modern intertwine everywhere. The nature is simply breathtaking! The culture is spectacular!
