    ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE OF OLYMPIA (THE BIRTHPLACE OF THE OLYMPIC GAMES), GREECE

    Olympia is on the western coast of the Peloponnese in southern Greece. The ancient city was like many others, with one exciting exception - THE OLYMPICS! Ancient Olympia had two parts, the city and the Olympics fields situated on the mountains above. The Olympic flame for today's Olympic Games travels every four years from the city. It is lit by reflection of sunlight in a parabolic mirror at the restored Olympia stadium, and then transported by torch to the place where the games will be held. A must-visit place which will have you travelling back in time! We will depart from Kalamata and enjoy a guided tour of the site. On our way, we will stop to have lunch at a traditional local restaurant, to enjoy the authentic Greek philoxenia (friendship). We will spend the day exploring the ancient ruins and learning what life was like during the Greek Empire.
    What to bring: Water, comfortable walking shoes, hat, sunscreen.
    Duration: Full Day

    POMPEII, ITALY

    Nestled at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, is Pompeii. Throughout the height of the Roman Empire, it was quite the lively city. As a result of a volcanic eruption, the town was covered in molten lava and ultimately "frozen in time." The city laid silent for almost two thousand years, until it was excavated. A picture of life in Roman times was revealed. What lies beneath was the town of Pompeii, perfectly preserved because of the layer of volcanic ash that had covered it for centuries. Today it remains one of the most compelling archaeological sites and by far one of the most visited Italian attractions. We will take a guided tour of the site, where we will see the houses, theatres, arenas, temples, and public buildings where its original inhabitants lived, worked, played, and worshipped. Lunch is included.
    What to bring: Water, comfortable walking shoes, hat, sunscreen.

    SURFING LESSON, PLAYA GRANDE

    Costa Rica has long been a popular destination for surfers worldwide. Famous Playa Grande on the Pacific Coast is one of the favoured beaches for wave riders of all levels. Located in Las Baulas National Park, Playa Grande is a long white-sand beach offering stunning views of the surrounding natural marine park, which has been carefully preserved as it is a nesting site for huge leatherback turtles. The quiet beach is also an ideal destination to learn surfing as it is rarely crowded and provides consistent, ride-able waves with perfect left and right peaks. We will leave Playas del Coco early in the morning for a short ride through coastal towns before arriving at Playa Grande. There we will be greeted by our surf instructors, who will provide equipment and go over the basics and safety of surfing this famous beach. Each student will receive individual attention and instructions before having the opportunity to conquer the waves on his/her own. Hang ten, and look out for those swells! After a fun day of surfing, we will have lunch (included) in a nearby beach café, stroll through the marine park, and return to Playas del Coco in the afternoon.
    What to bring: Towel, bathing suit, water, change of clothes, hat, and sunscreen.
