About this experience
Lindos is charming and picturesque! During this small car journey, you will get to know it better: you will not only see the very center of the city and its main architectural treasure - the Acropolis of Athens, but also visit a pottery workshop, stop by an olive oil factory, and learn about the history of Lindos while strolling through its colorful streets.
What to Expect
History of the City and Acropolis of Athens
I will tell you about the great past of Lindos and its role on the world stage in antiquity. The true gem of the city's architecture is the Acropolis of Lindian Athena, reached through labyrinthine paths. Children can ride donkeys to overcome this path. You will learn who built the first Acropolis and which celebrities of that time visited here. I will talk about the greatness of this city and its contribution to the development of the ancient world. Then we will walk through the streets past captain's houses, old cafes and taverns, and see the tomb of an ancient sage. Along the way, I will give you a small photo session as a gift.
Pottery Workshop
Skilled masters will craft several pottery items highly valued by our ancient ancestors right before your eyes. I will explain how to ensure that a ceramic piece fits perfectly into your interior. As a souvenir, you can buy the famous Pythagorean cup - I will show you its value, spoken of by ancient sages.
Olive Oil Factory
We will visit the olive oil factory where you will learn all the intricacies of the oil production process, taste olive paste, olives themselves, and the final product - pure oil with various additions. Here you can also buy a variety of honey, natural cosmetics based on olive oil, and wine - gifts from the island of Rhodes. Children will be interested to hear the myth of Aristaeus, learn who was the first beekeeper in Ancient Greece, and the role bees play in modern life. I will also reveal the secret of Greek honey!
On the way back, we will stop by the miraculous icon of the Virgin of Tsambika, which not only helps childless families have desired children but also helps everyone find family happiness and love.
