Athens (pop. 3 million) today is a busy, modern metropolis whose history is among the most celebrated in the world. Athens is the capital of Greece, the birthplace of democracy and the home of great thinkers in ancient times whose philosophies continue to shape and influence modern thought. Remarkable advancements in science, math, technology, art, theater, literature, sculpture and architecture stemmed from this rocky country bordering the Mediterranean in centuries prior to the birth of Christ. Athens today is the site of several key ruins of ancient Greek society and marvelous museums containing vast treasures of antiquity. The weather is among the best of European cities with mild winters and hot summers.
Paros (pop. 10,000) lies in the center of the Cyclades in the shiny blue waters of the Aegean Sea. The postcard-looking island is rich in beautiful landscapes and fertile valleys, quaint churches and monasteries, pristine beaches, stunning white houses and ruins that whisper of a brilliant past. The hospitable population, comfortable accommodation and interesting cultural history make Paros a Greek island favorite. Visitors to the island have the choice of engaging with the vibrant local townspeople and their colorful life or seeking a remote location for a more quiet and secluded stay.

You have the option of travelling on the airline of your choice. Since we are based in Los Angeles, some of our local students may choose to travel with one of our teacher chaperones. In that case, we will provide you with the designated flights on which our chaperons will be travelling. Students from outside of Los Angeles may travel directly from their home airport and meet the Program Director and the rest of the group at the designated group destination point. There will be specific arrival and departure windows that must be respected for group pick-up. If your flight arrangements necessitate a personalized airport pick-up that does not coincide with the group pick-up, there may be an extra charge.

A detailed itinerary as well as our Student Orientation Handbook will be made available well in advance of departure to provide travel and packing tips, allowing you time to make the necessary preparations.
