About this trip
Join me on and a group of women to idyllic Greece on a retreat designed to refresh your mind, body, spirit, and renew your sense of adventure! This retreat combines the best of ancient history with the serene beauty of the Mediterranean Sea.
We start in Athens, the vibrant capital city known for its rich history and stunning architecture. Together we will explore iconic landmarks such as the Acropolis and Parthenon, and immerse ourselves in the lively culture of the city's markets and cafes. We will eat lots of great food, enjoy delicious wine, and late night strolls to capture the energy of the city. After soaking in the city's energy, we will be ready for a tranquil island destination.
Our next stop is the island of Paros in the Cyclades for the duration of our retreat, where we'll enjoy pristine beaches and breathtaking views. Participate in optional yoga and meditation sessions overlooking the azure sea, take a guided hike through ancient landscapes, visit a small olive oil producer, and savor fresh, local cuisine. The Greek isles offer the perfect setting for relaxation and self-discovery.
Heidi Burnette, owner of Forktown Food Tours, will be accompanying the group along with a wellness expert and Greek host who will lead yoga and meditation for those who wish to join in mindful morning practices.

Itinerary
Meals included: Dinner
Overnight: Athens, Xenodocheio Milso
We start our journey together in the ancient city of Athens!
Guests arrive by 2:00pm for an included group transfer to our hotel located in the city center.
Xenodocheio Milso is our luxurious home base for the next 2 nights. This hotel is a "gastronomy 5* hotel" in the heart of Athens. A place where “philoxenia”, the sacred art of making a stranger feel like home, derives from taste, iconic simplicity and world class hospitality.
This evening, we will have our first taste of authentic Greek at a local restaurant.
