The two lovers will leave behind the sandy beaches of the island heading to a seagirt just across Crete, Dia. There Theseus has abandoned Ariadne. But the departure of Theseus meant Ariadne s intercourse with Dionysus, the god of wine. For centuries now, every year the same adventure is revived in Knossos Sea, between Dia Island and Crete. Each spring the residents cross the waters celebrating the coupling of their utterly pure goddess (Ariadne) with fruitful Dionysus! PETASOS program invites all hikers to join this celebration. During the tour to places that Ariadne acted you will be able to detect the mystery of the adventure from the sea crossing, to her abundance, and her interaction with the god of fertility.

7 Responsible traveller... The trips that we in Petassos Travel recommend you, take place in areas that are habitats for very sensitive flora and fauna species. The existence of these species is an indication of a healthy environment and the least we can do is respect it by minimisi ng the signs of our presence during our stay and after our departure. So, we take with us all rubbish or other items that do not belong in the landscape, we enjoy the scents and view of aromatic and other plants, and only photograph them, without removing them. We also avoid fires and smoking. Upon leaving, we leave behind us only footprints and take with us only memories! customs The charm of this land lies in, amongst other things, in the traditional character of the locals which has remained unaltered in all the villages you will have the opportunity to explore. Please, respect these traditional customs by behaving and dressing a ppropriately; the same is true about your contacts with the locals, perhaps forgetting for a moment the habits and customs of your land and letting the discovery of the idiosyncratic Cretans carry you off down the various extensions of their history In the framework of your discrete presence the best way to keep an excellent relationship with the locals, especially in remote villages, is to keep them informed of your plans (camping with or without tents, hiking, etc.). A coffee, a raki at the village caf és, a word with the regulars will reward you with a warm offer of information, interest and very often delicacies!
