We have teamed up with retreat company Nefeli Nine to bring you a taste of the real Greece. The concept is based on emulating the lifestyles in  'Blue zones'  where people live longer and better lives.  The main pillars of the retreats are a healthy, mainly plant based diet, daily guided hikes exploring the flora and fauna of the beautiful Greek countryside and coastline and stress release practices such as yoga or massage.  Plus there are some special treats like a visit to a traditional Greek fish taverna and an organic farm for a real taste of Greece.  This retreat is for those who want to experience the sights, sounds and smells of Greece while keeping active and relaxing the mind.  There are limited spaces so contact us to register your interest.
