Highlights
- Geros Tou Moria is a traditional Greek tavern, located under the Acropolis in the historic Plaka, one of the most picturesque areas of Athens. Geros Tou Moria is considered the oldest Greek tavern in the Plaka, offering traditional Greek cuisine and wines accompanied by lively Greek music and dancers.
- Mykonos, also known as the island of the winds, is one of the Greek Islands, Cyclades. It is also the name of the largest town on the island. Because of the location of Mykonos, several islands relied on it and it became an important place for supplies and transit. Mykonos also holds a place in Greek mythology. It is said that Mykonos was named after its first ruler, Mykons, the son of the god Apollo. Another myth says the island is the location of a great battle between Zeus and the Titans. Today, the island relies heavily on tourism and is widely known for its incredible nightlife.
- Explore Santorini Island and uncover the ancient ruins of Akrotiri, a city buried and preserved in volcanic ash. Commonly referred to as the “Minoan Pompeii,” archeologists have uncovered 15th-century homes and art.
- Perched on the northwestern tip of Santorini Island, the seaside village of Oia (pronounced "eea") is famous for its wines and whitewashed houses carved into the rugged volcanic cliffs. The town boasts one of the island’s best viewpoints, from which you can take in the blue waters of the sea, the pastel architecture, and the mountainous terrain.
- A Minoan Bronze Age settlement located on the volcanic Greek island of Santorini. The settlement was buried in volcanic ash by the Theran eruption in 1627 BC. The site was excavated. Much of what was found was the remains of Frescoes (type of painting style) and other objects and artworks. Today Akrotiri is still under some construction. However, a path was built from the city to the parking lot of excavations that is suitable for outdoor activities such as mountain biking, walking and running.
