We walk the first day of the potential Way of Saint Andrew, walking the 25kms between Athens and Eleusis, following the Sacred Way, the ancient pagan pilgrimage in honor of Demeter and Persephone.
During the walk we visited all the historical heritage of the route.

In this video, we do a preliminary analysis of a potential long-distance hiking similar to the Camino de Santiago, from Athens, to visit the remains of the Apostle Saint Andrew in Patras, Greece.
The analysis includes the description of the route, the tracing of the route, populations and services, accommodations, water and public fountains, beaches, stages, monuments, nature and landscapes and following steps.
If you have questions and doubts, as well as suggestions, you can leave them in the comments. We will try to resolve all issues in a future video at the end of the experience.

In this video, we explain why there is no Camino de Santiago in Greece and we explore some alternatives to the experience: Iera Odos or Sacred Way, Camino de la Tregua, Via Egnatia, Agios Oros or Mount Athos, and religious tourist packages.
The Peloponnese peninsula, in the southwest of Greece, concentrates the majority of the most impressive fortifications of the Middle Ages of Greece, including crusader, Venetian and Ottoman castles.
Today we are going to explore the castle of Methoni, one of the most important tourist attractions in the region and talk a little about its history.
In this video, we explore the remains of the Minoan town of Akrotiri, on the south of the island of Santorini, which was destroyed by a volcanic explosion in the year 1600 BC the same that almost destroyed the island.
