Description

Greece is a land of warm smiles and hospitality, beautiful beaches, bustling markets, and the ruins of a glorious ancient civilization. Come with us this summer to enjoy the vast treasures of this fascinating culture!

Our trip begins in Athens, center of the Ancient World and today a thriving metropolis. Well spend time at the majestic Acropolis, heart of the ancient empire and home to the famous Parthenon. Then turn your attention to the city of today, where youll shop busy markets, learn to cook Greek food, go windsurfing in sparkling seas, and much more. As on all TFT trips, you have choices every day so that you can design your own personal itinerary!

We wont miss out on mystical, mysterious Delphi, home to the Oracle that initiated the story of Oedipus and one of the sites of the original Olympic Games.

Departing the mainland for the Aegean Sea, well visit two of the most stunning of the Greek Islands. Youll kick back and live the traditional Greek island life amidst warm Mediterranean breezes on terraces overlooking the blue sea, white sand beaches, and fragrant flowers.

Throughout your travels, youll be in the company of guides who speak the language like a native and know the terrain like the back of their hand.

Youll have insider access to this exciting and diverse culture in ways you cant get elsewhere, as we head inside tiny shops to meet local bakers and artisans, and learn about the culture from the people who live it every day of their lives. Come see Greece like youve never imagined with Travel for Teens this summer!

Travel For Teens's Mission Statement

Travel for Teens believes that teen travel should be both fun and enriching. Our programs feature choice in what you do, see, and experience, a dynamic that sets us apart from superficial tours that herd large groups from one site to another. We visit the best of the mainstream attractions while offering the opportunity to explore the culture from a less touristy perspective. We interact with our host cultures, taking cooking and dance lessons, performing valuable service work to help local communities, and conversing with the people who have spent their lives living in the places we journey to. We have crafted our unique programs to engender love for travel, hunger for learning, curiosity about differences, appreciation of similarities across cultures, and an understanding of what it means to be a global citizen.
