Parga Holidays, 5 – 8 days

Dedicate your morning to exploring the historic Venetian Castle of Parga. Walk through its arched gateways and enjoy a coffee at the café located inside the pine-covered fortress grounds, offering spectacular views of Valtos bay.

In the afternoon, head down the stone steps to Valtos beach for a relaxed time swimming and trying water sports. Conclude your day with dinner at a cliffside restaurant overlooking the illuminated harbor.

Begin your day with a short drive to the legendary Acheron River, known in mythology as the river of the underworld. Wade through the crystal-clear, refreshing waters enclosed by dramatic canyon walls.

On your way back, stop at the archaeological site of the Necromanteion of Acheron, the ancient oracle of the dead. Rest your legs in the evening with a glass of regional wine at a quiet town square.

Embark on a morning excursion up the hills to the village of Anthousa to visit the massive Ali Pasha Castle. Explore its stone walls, cannons, and underground chambers while enjoying a panoramic view of Parga and Paxos island.

In the afternoon, drive or take a water taxi to the beautiful, sheltered cove of Sarakiniko beach to swim in its turquoise waters. Enjoy a sophisticated evening drink back at the port.

Spend your final morning visiting the islet of Panagia by renting a small pedal boat or taking a traditional taxi boat. Explore its small French fortress ruins and picturesque whitewashed chapels.

Head back to the town center to pick up authentic local souvenirs like extra virgin olive oil, local honey, and handcrafted soaps before your departure, soaking in the exotic vibes of Parga one last time.
