There's nothing quite like discovering off-the-grid destinations that aren't filled with crowds, especially in summertime. During this weeklong adventure, we will be traveling aboard a beautiful catamaran to Lefkada, Kalamos, Kastos, Ithaca, Kefalonia + Atokos. These are not the typical islands that come to mind when planning an adventure in Greece, maybe you've never even heard of most of them. That's actually what we love most about it.

#Greece is world-famous for their history, longevity, 6000 islands, and their healthy food and wine-fueled diet. Menus will feature freshly-caught seafood, great seasonal meals for vegetarian guests, feta-stuffed flakey pastries, hearty greens/grains, stuffed roasted vegetables, all kinds of fritters, mountain tea refreshments, meze platters, big heaping crisp salads, and honey-topped everything! 

Your Greek-American guide/chef Linda Sarris has organized this adventure and will be onboard with you for the week. She'll keep the cocktails flowing and ice your ouzo โ€” while preparing family meals when we are at sea during this brand new #cheekycharter. taken in Greece by @thecheekychef

You will meet my favorite people, my neighbors, my purveyors, fishmongers who let me pick up the fish and check how fresh it is, the ones who let me behind the counter, the extra special people who make this market absolutely incredible and memorable. It's not just a food tour, it's a glimpse into life in Ballaroฬ€, the family-owned stands that have been here for generations, a living breathing market with so much soul. I'll show you how to look at it. 

My market tours in Ballaroฬ€ are private + personalized, just for your small group of friends/fam. ๐”ธ๐•๐• ๐• ๐•— ๐•ช๐• ๐•ฆ๐•ฃ ๐•—๐• ๐• ๐•• ๐•’๐•Ÿ๐•• ๐••๐•ฃ๐•š๐•Ÿ๐•œ๐•ค ๐•’๐•ฃ๐•– ๐•š๐•Ÿ๐•”๐•๐•ฆ๐••๐•–๐•• . We are treated like family in a tight-knit community that prioritizes slow living + human connection.
