We recommend wearing comfortable, lightweight clothing and supportive walking shoes, as we'll be exploring historic villages with stone pathways. Don't forget a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen. If you plan to swim, bring a swimsuit, towel, and cover-up. Think casual, comfortable, and beach-ready! ☀️🌊🇬🇷
Please meet outside the hotel promptly at 9:45 AM, where the bus will be waiting. Join us for a day exploring the highlights of southern Chios! We'll visit the famous Mastic Villages, including the medieval village of Pyrgi, known for its unique black-and-white geometric architecture and charming stone alleyways. Next, we'll stop at the Chios Mastic Museum to learn about the island's most famous product and its rich history. We'll then explore Mesta, a beautifully preserved Byzantine village-castle filled with winding streets and historic charm. To end the day, choose between Mavra Volia, Chios' iconic black pebble beach with crystal-clear waters, or Komi Beach, a sandy seaside destination perfect for swimming and relaxing. Enjoy lunch by the sea, soak up the Mediterranean sun, and experience some of our favorite places on the island! 🇬🇷☀️🌊
