After breakfast this morning, make your way to Delphi and with a bit of luck you’ll see the mist slowly clearing, revealing the ancient remnants that have captivated the imaginations of countless visitors. This is the very heart of Greek culture, where the ancient Greeks believed the world’s center resided. Following in the footsteps of pilgrims who sought guidance from the Oracle, you’ll ascend the site, each step revealing more of the remarkable history that unfolds before you. At the pinnacle of your ascent, you’ll encounter the remnants of the Temple of the Oracle, an awe-inspiring testament to the ancient wisdom and mystical practices that once thrived in this hallowed place.

In the afternoon, we will arrange a cooking workshop at your hotel, where you will be guided by skilled instructors to learn the art of creating a spanakopita, a quintessential Greek savoury pie filled with fresh and flavorful vegetables. Engage your senses as you mix and shape the ingredients, feeling the connection to traditional Greek cuisine come alive in your hands. Once ready, you’ll have the pleasure of indulging in the fruits of your labour. Sit back and savour each delectable bite of your freshly prepared spanakopita, appreciating the rich flavors and wholesome ingredients that make Greek cuisine so beloved.
