Easter in Athens Traveller Reviews

We spent a week in Athens leading up to the Orthodox Easter celebrations. We explored some important classical sites in and around Athens,, and we observed the religious ceremonies of Easter week, as well as some excellent practical sessions decorating pottery and cooking.

The holiday arrangements were top notch. The hotel was excellent and in a perfect location, The guides both came from Athens and knew the city and region extremely well. Furthermore, they were both experts, one in the field of classical Greece and the other in Byzantine architecture. We could not have had a better team.

Well organised, interesting, different. Good fun with interesting activities.

Very efficient

I took this Easter in Athens trip as I wanted to see a bit more of Athens. I have visited many times in the past, and this holiday showed me things I couldn't have experienced on my own. We took part in candlelit processions, ate traditional Easter foods, listened to beautiful singing, all explained by a native Athenian.

Peter Sommer Travels is a small firm that I have used many times - they have really knowledgeable & helpful guides, excellent organisation, and lovely places to show.

I spent 7 days in Athens over the Easter period , experiencing the Greek Orthodox religion also we had a good variety of archaeological sites that were visited.
