Greek Afternoon Tea Hosted by Greek Family on the Island

4:30 pm - 6:30 pm

Melístakto (Monastery Cafe)
Poros, 180 20, Greece

Conservative dress. Shorts/ shirts are fine for men, summer day dresses (not busty or not too short) for women. We are close to monastery, so respectful attire encouraged.

Transport - We will take the quads to the venue, and do a trip around the island on the quads before we arrive. For those who would prefer not to take quads, you can get a taxi direct to the venue. It takes 5 minutes from Poros Image in a taxi and is not walkable. Wine, coffee to be provided by our Greek family hosts. Nibbles to be provided - cheese, cakes etc. Please be respectful of the area - this is a chance to feel connected to the "real" Poros, and see the monastery and get to know Greek family on the island who run the cafe where this is hosted. This is a day event for a couple of hours, nothing too fancy. Feel free to make evening dinner plans separately as I expect this to finish around 6/6:30pm.
