Pelion has it all: sea, endless beaches, olive trees, mountains, thick forests with oak, maple and chestnut trees, and characteristic villages with stone houses covered by grey or green slate roofs. In the main city, Volos, you can sit down with a local tsipouro and dream away, gazing at the sea, where Jason once set shore with the Argo.
This summer Pelion will also be our destination to dive into the Greek language and culture! We will organise a one week intensive course in Stefania‘s village Zagora. You’ll have 3 hours of Greek lessons per day, and your afternoons will be spent strolling through the mountains, relaxing at the sea, or joining us on cultural and culinary excursions!

(incl. a small break, maybe sometimes an afternoon class)
