It’s a one of a kind workshop
This workshop was a highlight of my trip. Christopher and Chrysa are very kind, patient and competent. You don’t only learn the process of painting an icon, you get to ask any question to someone who has been working on icons and frescos in churches for a couple of decades. Strongly recommend!

Rethymnon Old Town Private Walking guided Tour in Crete Greece
Rethymno Rating
This tour was a great experience with my family, our guide Nicholas offered a depth of history and behind the scenes information on Rethymno and its rich past. No details were sparred, there was even a moment of impromptu singing with a local musician. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
