I know Athens fairly well but Maroussa surprised me! the choice of the places is very interesting and offers an overall vision of Greek gastronomy. Maroussa also gives anecdotes, history points all along the tour and it makes sense to help us get to know the Greek way of thinking / living / eating better.

Due to Covid restrictions I had to take the online workshop instead of the live one. I have never seen such amount of interaction online! Now I understand why they call it workshop.. Being a proud online courses addict, and I took the whole series of online courses for ancient Greece: democracy, philosophy, medicine and of course the ‘’walkind dead’’ one! All 4 courses were well organized (started on time, my group was small about 8-11 people, well-planned, with engaging materials). Instructors were extremely professional and experienced but also helpful and passionate. They provided great insights and knowledge, answered all questions, and brought ancient greece to today with interesting case studies. I will not say which one I liked most, I believe one must take them all so that he gets the most of the experience. I can say that democracy course was the most eye-opener, philosophy one was the most practical (surprisingly!), medicine one provided a wealth of knowledge and the walking dead was the course that really made me think over my current perceptions. The highlight was definitely the interaction, as we had to see and talk to each other and share opinions, beliefs and elaborate case studies. Overall it exceeded my expectations for an online experience and well worth the money! When covid is over I will definitely join the live workshops of Hellas Revival as well!

Forget the clichés about Greece and let’s immerse in an urban world, witness of the actual issues of the country and of an alternative way of living. This is Exarchia, a unique area in downtown Athens where leftist and anarchist movements meet, resisting to self-manage itself and promoting inclusion. No, this is not a ghetto, but a social melting pot. The walk will lead you into the core of the area, to understand what it is today and the actuals issues and threats, through omnipresent street art, quiet pedestrian streets, activist banners and busy recreational squares.

Inclusions: English or French speaking experience leader, The visit of the anarchist district of Exarchia, A political and social immersion in the actual issues of Greece

Exclusions: Food & drinks, Hotel pick up/drop off, Personal expenses
