What you can expect

  • The tour starts with a pick-up at your hotel, so you can comfortably set off to discover the Greek villages of Calabria. You'll travel along the beautiful Coast of the Gods and the Purple Coast, admiring breathtaking views of the Ionian Sea and the Calabrian coast, accompanied by our expert guide.
    The first stop is Pentedattilo, the famous ghost village whose name means “five fingers,” due to the resemblance of the surrounding mountains to a giant hand. Perched on a cliff, the village, although abandoned, offers charming alleys and hidden corners that tell the story of an ancient community, local legends, and fascinating curiosities.
    We'll then head to Bova, whose historic center climbs a scenic cliff at the foot of the Aspromonte National Park. Considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, Bova wins visitors over with its medieval streets, spectacular views of the Ionian Sea, and the Greek traditions that are still alive in the local culture.
    During the tour, your guide will share stories, curiosities, legends, and local traditions, offering a complete overview of the life, culture, and identity of Calabria's Greek villages. An ideal excursion for those who love history, culture, and authentic landscapes, away from the most crowded tourist destinations.
