Diane's Food,
Wine & Culture Tours
Greece is so rich: Layers of history, landscapes that segue from dramatic mountain villages to the bluest of seas, ruins that tell the story of Western Civilization, food that mirrors every aspect of the country’s natural environment, geography and culture, and, hospitality that runs deep in the Greek DNA.
All of this and so much more adds up to Greece, and in my more than three decades of living here, I’ve traveled widely within the country.
In my Ikaria PLUS offerings, a selection of deliciously curated culinary and cultural adventures around Greece and beyond, I have partnered with the best tour leaders in the world as well as local experts in select places around Greece to create journeys that promise to give you a very personal and personalized taste of Greece, with depth, historical perspective, antiquities, wellness, FUN, and, of course, always with the best food and wine experiences imaginable!
Join us for the trip of a lifetime, to Greece and beyond!
