CS3010F/G Study Tour to Greece

What?

The Study Tour to Greece is a 2-week long adventure-packed course with exciting trips to Greece's most important historical sites. Students will gain invaluable firsthand experience of the history, archaeology and culture of this fascinating country. Our classrooms will be the cities of Greece, first Athens where we will tour the impressive monuments of the sacred Acropolis, the Agora marketplace, the beautiful new Acropolis Museum, and the wonders of the National Archaeological Museum. We will then travel through Northern Greece to the cliff-top monasteries of Meteora, and then to Thessaloniki, from which we will explore the Macedonian royal tombs at Vergina. We will consult the famous oracle of Delphi and visit the historical battlegrounds of Marathon and Thermopylae, where 300 Spartans fought against an army of Persians before we move to the coastal town of Nauplion to stay among the Venetian-era buildings, castles, and beaches and travel to the major archaeological sites of the Peloponnese, including Mycenae, Epidaurus, and Olympia.
