Monolithos castle
An itinerary within the nature of Monolithos; a village with stone-built houses and picturesque lanes. The route spans around the imposing chivalric castle that stands on a steep. The view from the castle is so exceptional; leaving one speechless. Following, we will get to know some of the locals and taste the delicious, authentic cuisine of the area. Finally, in Glyfada area, the adventure goes on as we follow a forest path that leads to a hidden, solitary beach. Then, swimming in the crystal clean water with the islands of Chalki and Alimia so close on sight… A truly memorable experience.
Village tradition
In Apollona, the village of Apollo, we will have the chance to experience the real island hospitality, have a hands-on cooking lesson given by a local lady, taste authentic food and wine, make our own wax-ointment with the local olive oil and bee wax, learn about the ancient and modern history of the village, while being guided to the unique folklore museum. The -19th century- church of the village, built on the ruins of an ancient temple, is also of a special interest. Lastly at the traditional tavern we are going to taste authentic local dishes, some of them made by our own hands in the traditional way.
