Enjoy free time for a traditional Greek coffee or a sweet treat at a local kafenio, and feel the warmth and charm of authentic Cycladic living.

Stroll through the vineyards, observe traditional winemaking techniques in action, and savor three carefully selected wines. Each sip tells the story of the island’s terroir, history, and the dedication of its producers, offering a true taste of Cycladic flavor.

Next, visit the Scorpios Museum, a hidden gem where fisherman-artist Benetos Skiadas recreated everyday Cycladic life through intricate handmade miniatures. Marvel at the craftsmanship, from tiny homes and churches to traditional tools and workshops, and gain insight into the island’s history, trades, and culture. This unique stop provides a fascinating and intimate glimpse into Paros’s heritage.
