Why travel with us:
-For the service / price relation is extremely tempting and the total cost of the trip includes almost everything (except airfare that is something you should purchase independently according to your preferences). Unlike the many organized, impersonal tourist agencies that in reality, offer far less (usually with unforeseen expenses added to the initial cost of the trip) and operate in large-scale, we have created a personalized holiday package that is tailor-made to meet the needs of your impov workshops, in consultation with Act Attack teachers and manager, by introducing an environment to explore freely within a group.
-For you’ll be traveling as if you had tour guides constantly throughout the whole journey. Apart from being your travel designers, we will also be with you from start to finish in order to answer questions, advise you, and help you avoid tourist traps. SteMajourneys duo, Stef and Maria, along with Act Attack manager George, will accompany you for these days, walking, discussing, and taking photos so you can experience Greece from within and discover the pure side of each destination.
-For you will truly experience a vivid theater community outside of the norm and at the same time you will be able to attend acting workshops in the country that gave birth to the notions of theater, like tragedy and comedy.
-For you will enjoy a vacation package of improv/acting practices while holidaying.
-Considering that a photographer charges 20-30 euros for 1-2 hours of shooting and delivering around 30-50 edited photos to her/his clientele, you earn a full photo coverage for all 6 days of the trip and 200 professionally edited photos will be delivered to you right in your inbox.
-Above all for you will experience Greece by living as a local, discovering its secrets that without our guidance it wouldn’t be possible.
* Registration is not compulsory and does not require deposit, however we do suggest receiving your valid partaking by mid January, as this retreat has limited spots available.
