Also groups for other activities - hiking, Tai Chi and so on - are very welcome. Paros is beautiful for hiking in early and late season (April/May/October), when it is not to hot. There are beautiful hikes through the mountains. The Byzantine route from Lefkes is easy to do without guide. But organised hikes are also possible. 

 

 

 

Food for your group:

 

If you bring a group you will eat also a group; the same food at the same time. We can provide breakfast buffet, and/or diner. For the diner you can choose vegetarian, fish or with chicken, or a mix of that during the week.

You as the group leader decide what and when you will eat.

Only welcome and goodbye diner is also possible.

Aliki is only three mintues walking and you will find there several restaurants where you can eat and order a-la-carte. 

 

 

We will make Greek food for your group.  Special diets (gluten free for example) are no problem, but please inform us in time.

 

We use local products, to give you the best quality food and in the same time help the environmental problems and support the local community.
