If you want to be steeped in Greek tradition and customs then look no further than here! This package affords you the opportunity of experience an authentic Orthodox Easter, complete with guided tours, cooking demonstrations, traditional meals & celebrations on the island of Poros, before spending 5 days hopping around the Greek mainland to archaeological sites that up until now you could only read about in history books! You will be able to explore the Oracle of Delphi where Pythia once prophesied the futures of the Greek city-states. You will walk through the stadiums of ancient Olympia where the first Olympic Games were held. You will climb the stairs of the Theater of Epidaurus where plays by Aeschylus, Euripides, Sophocles and Aristophanes have been performed. In Mycenae you will stroll among the Tombs of Kings which ruled ancient Greece and held in their hands the fate of the world. The religious harmony of Easter in Poros is complemented by the numinous and transcendent feeling that will overcome you in Meteora. Pious Byzantine Monasteries stand humbly and yet prominently above the valley of Meteora on top of gigantic rock pillars.
Make this spring special with a uniquely spiritual experience in Greece!
