    Itinerary

    Day 1Hills of Athens - Welcome dinner

    Our first “Aegean Active Wellness Retreat” day is dedicated to Athens!
    Acropolis, apart from being the city’s higher point, it was also surrounded by hills that offered protection: Pnyka hill, Areopagus (Mars hill), Philopappou hill and of course Lycabettus. Each one had their own role in ancient times and a story starting as a myth, continuing nowadays. Today we will walk from one hill to another, exploring Athens in a unique way, embracing its vibe and charm along the way. In the evening welcome dinner at an amazing rooftop restaurant.
    Overnight in Athens (L,D)
    * Depending on the time of your arrival, the Hills of Athens tour can be skipped today and implemented on day 7 or 8. In that case we can make a short walking tour of the historic Plaka and enjoy our welcome dinner!

    Day 2Acropolis, Parthenon and Acropolis Museum - Athens Sea Kayak Sunset Tour

    The majestic Parthenon, the Propylaia gateway and Temple of Athena Nike await you today at the top of Acropolis for a professional guided tour! Afterwards we will expand our knowledge in the new Acropolis museum, a super-modern, glass-walled building set at the footsteps of the ancient Acropolis. Its beautiful terrace is an ideal place for our lunch, before we depart from Athens towards Cape Sounio, where we will have the opportunity to experience an amazing Sea Kayaking activity that will take us to the temple of Poseidon, where we will witness a breathtaking sunset! Dinner at a sea-view restaurant!

    Day 3Evia island - Wine tasting

    In the morning, the bus picks us up from Athens for a 3-hour drive to Agia Anna village, which is located in Northern Evia. We settle into our accommodation and embark on the path to wellness through a yoga session. Then we can enjoy a number of optional activities such as mat Pilates, cycling, beach volleyball and dynamic exercises on the beach followed by a healthy Greek luncheon prepared by our executive chef at the traditional seaside tavern.
    In the evening, we discover fine Greek wines at a local traditional winery. Our visit to these vineyards will immerse us into the history and varieties of Greek wines. Organic dinner to conclude our amazing day!

    In the afternoon, get ready to commune with nature. A hike to Skiathos Island’s Magical Faraway Tree Forest will give you the opportunity to create unique memories. During the hike we’ll do some geocaching, in order to find hidden clues and discover the fascinating natural treasures of the forest. Back at the hotel for a thrilling sunset yoga session.
