Getting There

On Saturday, April 25th we will begin registration at 10am but you have all day to check in. Please let us know your travel plans so we can arrange to pick you up from the airport. We will have a group dinner at 6pm that will mark the beginning of our week together. On Friday, May 1st we will end our week with a late lunch/early dinner celebration that will finish by 5 or 6pm.

  • You can fly to Paros from Athens. Once on Paros, the airport is a 15 minute drive to the main town, Parikia - we will arrange to pick you up when you arrive.

  • If you have more time, you can also take a ferry from Athens - from the port of Piraeus to Paros (Parikia Port) and arrive right in town about a 5 minute walk to the retreat facility.

  • It is often easier to find flights if you buy your Athens to Paros (Parikia) tickets separate from your US (or wherever you are originating) to Athens flight.

  • On your way home, depending on your flight times, you may need to spend a night at the Athens airport. There is a Sofitel right at the airport and other less expensive options within 15 minutes and a free shuttle ride.

    Please get in touch if you have any questions about any travel arrangements

NOTE: You may have heard about new visa requirements for US Citizens traveling to Europe. In April 2026, you will not need a visa to travel to Greece with a US passport. There will be a new authorization needed beginning in the last quarter of 2026 but it will not affect your travel in April/May 2026.
