Echoes of the Aegean – The Santorini Chapter

Post-Conference Cultural Escape | November 2025

Following the international gathering in Athens, join us for a transformative journey to one of the most iconic destinations in the world — Santorini.
This exclusive experience is designed for women from across the globe seeking beauty, depth, and authentic connection beyond the ordinary tourist path.

Wander through whitewashed villages, explore volcanic landscapes, enjoy curated tastings, and breathe in the quiet elegance of the island in its most serene season — November.

From the edge of the caldera to the heart of local traditions, "Echoes of the Aegean – The Santorini Chapter" is not just a trip.
It’s a celebration of culture, womanhood, and timeless Greek light —
a journey that will remain in your memory as a chapter all its own.

inspired by “Ode to Santorini” by Odysseas Elytis

This journey draws poetic breath from the words of Nobel Laureate Odysseas Elytis, who captured the soul of Santorini — its fire, silence, and beauty — in his visionary “Ode to Santorini.”
Through carefully chosen verses, each day of our experience echoes the island’s essence: a land born of lava, shaped by light, and made to awaken the senses.

Πρόγραμμα Εκδρομής

PROGRAM FOR DAY ONE – Thirsday,November 6, 2025 Athens – Santorini

 "You felt the joy of birth, you leapt into the world first — born of the purple, rising.— Odysseas Elytis

🔹Our journey begins where earth and light were first reborn. Welcome to Santorini.

Your Santorini chapter begins.

Upon arrival at the island’s airport, a private transfer will take you to your accommodation — the elegant Desol 5★, a luxury retreat that blends contemporary design with the raw beauty of the Cycladic landscape.

After check-in, take time to settle into your room, breathe in the Aegean air from your balcony, and enjoy the serenity of this off-season moment. Whether you wish to relax by the pool, indulge in a spa treatment, or explore the hotel's refined surroundings, this first day invites you to slow down and arrive fully — not just on the island, but into yourself.

Later in the evening, you are warmly invited to an optional informal gathering overlooking the caldera. With a glass of wine in hand and the volcanic cliffs bathed in twilight, it’s the perfect opportunity to meet your fellow travelers, share intentions, and open the journey in an atmosphere of connection and quiet wonder.

PROGRAM FOR DAY TWO – Friday,November 7, 2025 Island Discovery & Oia Sunset

"Queen of the pulses and wings of the Aegean, you found the words that convert the infinite."

— Odysseas Elytis

🔹 Today, we listen to the island’s language — spoken in stone, sky, and sunset.

After a leisurely breakfast at Desol 5★, we set off on a private full-day island tour designed to unveil the many faces of Santorini — a land shaped by myth, fire, and light.

Our journey begins inland, through winding roads and quiet villages where life moves slowly and traditions remain alive. We’ll visit iconic locations, from volcanic plains to hillside chapels, and explore hidden corners that most visitors never see — each stop carefully chosen to connect you to the island’s soul.

As the afternoon light softens, we head north toward Oia, perhaps the most photographed village in the world — yet in November, it breathes more freely. You’ll have time to wander its marble alleys, discover artisan shops, and choose your spot to witness the famed Santorini sunset, where gold, crimson, and violet blend above the caldera in a spectacle of stillness.

Return to the hotel in the early evening. The rest of the night is yours — to reflect, to rest, or to share a meal under the stars.

PROGRAM FOR DAY THREE – Saturday,November 8, 2025 Volcanic Vines & A Taste of the Infinite

"With fire, with lava, with smoke — you gave birth to the voice of the day."

— Odysseas Elytis

🔹 From the volcanic soul of Santorini, we taste the spirit of creation itself.

After a gentle morning at the hotel, we set out for a day that speaks the language of the earth.

Santorini’s volcanic soil holds stories in every root, and today we visit a renowned winery that honors that tradition. We begin with a guided walk through the vineyards, where the unique circular “kouloura” vine formations wind low to the ground, shaped by centuries of adaptation to the island’s dry winds and fiery terrain.

With the Aegean on the horizon and pumice underfoot, we connect with the island not just through sight, but through touch and scent. Inside the winery, a curated wine tasting introduces us to signature volcanic varietals — Assyrtiko, Nykteri, Vinsanto — paired with local bites and guided by expert sommeliers.

The rest of the day is open: you may return to the hotel for rest, or choose an optional sensory or culinary experience, such as a cooking demo, a spa ritual, or a walk through a nearby village.

PROGRAM FOR DAY FOUR – Sunday,November 9, 2025 Reflection & Departure

"Let feeling blossom again in a thousand colors, fluttering freely."

— Odysseas Elytis

🔹 We return not only with memories, but with the breeze of freedom and renewal.
